🍫 Planet Cocoa – Bean-to-Bar Ethics, Melbourne-Made Indulgence
Planet Cocoa is a West Melbourne–based artisan chocolate maker focused on bean-to-bar, stone-ground chocolate crafted ethically and sustainably. Founder Jeanette Macko brings her expertise as a pastry chef to create small-batch chocolates with exceptional flavour while supporting cocoa-farming communities .
Why They Stand Out:
- Ethical sourcing: Cocoa beans from transparent, fair-trade partners in Samoa, Vietnam, Ecuador—with attention to community and environmental impact.
- Eco-conscious packaging: Recyclable, biodegradable, or reusable materials; glass jars for drinking chocolate; minimal waste from small batches .
- Vegan-friendly: All products are vegan, with no dairy contact, using alternatives like oat and coconut milk.
Treats to Explore:
- Coconut Praline Dark Chocolate (64%) – Creamy coconut praline with roasted coconut bits in ethically sourced dark chocolate.
- Black Forest Dark Chocolate (64%) – Sour cherries and malt crunch evoke the taste of cake in a rich bar.
- Oat Milk + Roasted Nibs Block (42%) – Smooth oat milk dark chocolate studded with crunchy nibs).
- Hot Chocolate & Discovery Packs – Stone-ground drinking chocolate and mixed 3‑pack to sample their range.
- Custom chocolates – Bespoke blocks or event favours with eco-friendly, elegant packaging.
