In 2009 their 63% cocoa based ''Tsar'' bar won the first price at the [http://www.salon-du-chocolat.com Salon de Chocolat Paris] in France and since . Since 2008, Cinagra have been producing produces chocolate on behalf of a for [[Madécasse]] - a US importer and brand , exported and sold primarily in the US and Canada.

A third, small but nonetheless appreciated Madagascar chocolate brand is [[Chocolaterie Colbert]]. Although they do not buy pre-processed cocoa directly from farmers in Ambanja and can therefore not be classified a bean-to-bar producer, their recipes are their own and since they do buy their processed cocoa from both Chocolaterie Robert and Cinagra, their final products are of single Malagasy origin. Colbert's highly priced range of handmade pralines and chocolate bars is sold only at [[Pâtisserie Colbert]] in Antananarivo, part of [[Hotel Colbert]]. Their bars and pralines, handmade and gift-wrapped by a small team of talented chocolatiers and always sold fresh at the counter, make ideal presents for special occasions.<br clear="all">
