Madagascar Chocolate
There are two major chocolate manufacturers in Madagascar, Chocolaterie Robert and Cinagra. Both companies produce premium quality chocolate made with cocoa grown exclusively in Madagascar.
Cinagra and Chocolaterie Robert are so-called bean-to-bar chocolate makers of single origin, which both grow their cocoa and produce their chocolate in Madagascar.
Additionally, Chocolaterie Colbert has an upmarket range of handmade pralines and chocolate bars made by a small team of chocolatiers for sale at Hotel Colbert, using ingredients supplied by Chocolaterie Robert and Cinagra. Patisserie Colbert is a small scale production but exclusive brand of delicious chocolates that can be bought only at Hotel Colbert's Patisserie.
