Radek's Chocolate began early 2008 in Bristol, the same town where the first ever chocolate bar was made! Radek’s passion for chocolate was born a couple of years before when he discovered cacao beans. At the time he was cooking at award winning vegetarian restaurant Cafe Maitreya. Here he was exploring fine cuisine, which now translates in his sophisticated creations. Our chocolate is made from c

acao bean paste to bar. We begin by hand-chiselling the cacao paste & cacao butter blocks. The blend is then slowly refined under a granite stone wheel for over 24 hours while we slowly incorporate the other ingredients. The finished chocolate is poured into bar shaped moulds, cooled, set, and then wrapped. It has always been greatly important that all the ingredients used are fair trade, organic wherever possible, and carefully chosen from only reliable suppliers. Radek, with his passion for travel, loves to source the best ingredients direct from the producers, for example the finest chestnut flour from the hills in Dordogne which is freshly milled to order. With this in mind, we feel it’s important to communicate our dedication towards the cause. So, Radek’s Chocolate is now officially organic and certified by OF&G. We are proud to participate in a global movement towards a happier planet. From beginning to end, each product is treated with utmost love and care, creating unique artisan, handmade chocolate treasures, that will indulge your senses and benefit your body!

This cacao is truly special. With nothing else added, it's got a robust flavour profile that's direct from the cacao bean, amplified only by our grinding and roasting methods. This Peruvian Chuncho leaves you with a flavour and a feeling that's a true testament to the ethical growing and sourcing of this cacao.

Available on our website now!

The culture around food and herbs is so rich in Lycia in southern Turkey. Pine honey, tahini, pomegranate molasses and freshly squeezed juice , oregano, sage, bay leaves, St John’s wort oil, olive oil and bayberry soap, aubergine dishes are the specialities of this region. Great to see such a strong tradition around homemade produce.

PSA: It's going to be a hot one this week! ☀️ Whilst we all love a bit of sun, we don't like sending your chocolate out in puddle form 😅 so we'll be holding orders back until things cool down a little bit.

And don't forget to put your suncream on too! 👋🏻

People of Kerala ❤️🥰❤️
I have totally fallen in love with these beautiful smiles.
They kept filling me up with pure joy on every corner.
They are proof that financial stability isn’t a measure of happiness. Their family and community values create the real richness, that cannot be bought or sold. I’m blown away by their generosity and companionship.
Bless your hearts ❤️❤️❤️

Our Story

Radek’s chocolate began in 2008 in Bristol, the same town where the first ever chocolate bar was made! Radek’s Passion for chocolate was born a couple of years before when he discovered unroasted raw cacao beans. At the time he was cooking at award winning vegetarian restaurant Café Maitreya. Here he was exploring fine cuisine, which now translates in his sophisticated creations.

However the real story begins in Radek’s own kitchen at home…

Through much experimenting, countless tastings and sleepless nights, he found his original recipe. This took him on a culinary journey discovering exotic textures and flavours, which have now become the infamous Radek’s Chocolates. Like an Alchemist with his potions Radek’s passion for Cacao has become a fine art.

It has always been greatly important that all the ingredients used are fair trade, organic wherever possible, and carefully chosen from only reliable suppliers. Radek, with his passion for travel, loves to source the best ingredients direct from the producers, for example the finest chestnut flour from the hills in Dordogne which is freshly milled to order.
