Foundry Chocolate, based in New Zealand, has been recognized with numerous awards, including being crowned Champion at the NZ Outstanding Food Producer Awards and earning multiple gold medals at the Academy of Chocolate Awards in London. Foundry’s dedication to quality and sustainability has also earned them the prestigious Snail of Approval from Slow Food's Auckland chapter. This recognition has led to regular showcases on TV3, TVNZ, and Radio New Zealand. David, Foundry’s founder and chocolate maker, is an engineer by trade. His passion for precision and craftsmanship informs the rigorous standards and attention to detail that defines Foundry. Sourcing only the finest quality cacao beans from ethical and sustainable farms, his bars highlight the unique flavours and terroir of the beans' origins using just two ingredients: cacao and organic cane sugar. The elegant packaging, designed by David’s wife Janelle, perfectly complements the purity and integrity of the chocolate inside. As one journalist put it, “the anticipation of opening each resealable parcel is like unwrapping gifts on Christmas morning.”
