Detailed information

Packed with love

All our products are packaged by disadvantaged and hard-to-employ people in our friendly integration packaging facility. As part of social inclusion, we help them find employment, build self-confidence, and develop work habits.

A grain of peace

Our cocoa comes from post-conflict areas of Colombia, where bloodshed took place and farmers grew coca and poppies for drug cartels. Today, growing cocoa is a way for them to secure a life of peace and tranquility.

Premium and social

Kakaw Co+ products are made from the highest quality 'fino de aroma' cocoa beans. We personally supervise the entire process, from growing the beans to processing them, to ensure they meet our standards of true quality.

Product detailed description

Organic Panela Costa Rica is a natural, unrefined sweetener made by drying sugar cane juice. Unlike refined sugar, it is produced without chemical processing or bleaching — retaining its natural colour, aroma, and character. The result is a sweetener with a delicate, fruity-floral flavour, light texture, and the authentic profile of Costa Rican sugar cane.

Costa Rican panela is defined by its lighter colour, free-flowing texture, and gentler, fruitier sweetness. These qualities make it a favourite ingredient especially for baked goods and desserts — it measures easily, blends evenly, and lets other flavours shine through.

Thanks to minimal processing, panela preserves the original structure of sugar cane juice rather than isolating pure sucrose. For those looking for a more natural alternative to refined sugars, Costa Rican panela is a choice with a gentle character and effortless use.

Hand-packed in our social integration facility in Slovakia, creating meaningful employment opportunities for disadvantaged individuals.
