Chocolate makers using Madagascar cocoa

While Chocolaterie Robert, Chocolaterie Cinagra and Chocolaterie Colbert produce their chocolates entirely in Madagascar, various producers in other countries use exported pre-processed Madagascan cocoa in their products. In case the whole cacao beans are exported from Madagascar and processed further at the factory by the company which also sells the product, such producer may be considered a bean-to-bar chocolate maker of single origin Madagascan cocoa. Some brands are produced entirely in Madagascar for export only. All brands, whether they qualify as may from bean-to-bar or not in Madagascar or elsewhere, are listed below:
