A chocolate with the Bio-Équitable label
Chocolats Frigoulette holds the Bio-Équitable label, with environmentally friendly production that also ensures decent incomes for the producers of the archipelago. For over 35 years, the Kaoka cooperative, our exclusive supplier, has been dedicated to the cause of organic farming and fair trade. By choosing a supplier that carries out no processing on site, we support the local economy and keep the product pure.
Chocolats Frigoulette is therefore a company certified FiABLE Fair Trade by BIOPARTENAIRE®.
Indulgence without compromise
Made with respect for the environment
Our workshop is in the Vercors, and we care about working with local, eco-responsible producers from the Drôme and Ardèche. For example, Chocolats Frigoulette teams up with caves Jaillance and Maison Boutarin to bring you unique treats.
A unique partnership built on solidarity
For a sustainable, educational approach
In 2014, Bernard Xueref (founder of Chocolaterie Frigoulette) acquired 2 hectares of abandoned cocoa plantations to set up experimental plots, aiming to help producers improve their growing methods and yields.
Patricia Tripotin carries on Bernard Xueref’s commitment, continuing to support local production and children’s schooling on the island.
