PACARI: THE ONLY BIODYNAMIC® CHOCOLATE IN THE WORLD
Certified Sustainable, PACARI, the Only Chocolate Company to Obtain
Demeter Biodynamic® Certification
QUITO, ECUADOR [March 5, 2012] — As of March 2012, PACARI Chocolate is
officially the only chocolate company in the world to obtain the prestigious Demeter
Biodynamic® International and US Certifications.
PACARI cofounder, Santiago Peralta, had this to say about his company’s Biodynamic®
achievement, “It is the result of five years of hard work and a transformative, spiritual
experience for me and the farmers who collaborated with me in the project.” PACARI
partners with small-scale, organic cacao growers across Ecuador and has helped establish
200 of these farmers with the Biodynamic® farming method.
PACARI Biodynamic®—Beyond Organic:
Biodynamic® agriculture is an integrated farming system that views the farm as a living
organism. Some sustainable farming techniques used in PACARI\'s cacao projects include
composts made with non-conventional organic and mineral components prepared and
applied according to Biodynamic® principles and philosophy to rejuvenate farms,
interplanting and preservation of cacao\'s genetic diversity. Farmers avoid all chemical
products and set aside a minimum of 10% of their total acreage for biodiversity. The
entire farm, versus a particular crop, must be certified, and farms are inspected annually.
In order for a product to bear the Demeter® logo it must be made with certified
Biodynamic® ingredients and meet strict Demeter® processing standards to ensure the
purest possible product.
