Wellington Chocolate Factory

Wellington Chocolate Factory makes organic, ethically traded, bean-to-bar chocolate of the highest quality, right here in our home town. Founded in 2013 by Gabe Davidson (a former Melbourne coffee roaster) and pastry chef Rochelle Alagar, WCF was the first craft bean-to-bar factory to open in New Zealand, and remains the country's only certified organic chocolate maker. Their story starts with meeting the farmers and bringing the best single-origin beans into their factory from across the globe, with a focus on Pacific Island producers paid a premium for their cocoa. From there it's roast, crack, winnow, conch and temper - using artisan methods reaching back to the 18th century - producing small batches of strong, luscious organic chocolate. Legendary New Zealand artists add their own dash of inspiration, infusing the wrappers with original designs, so every bar has a story to tell long before you've unwrapped it. Customers love WCF for its unique flavours, deep Kiwi connection, and absolute commitment to fair trade principles. Ignite your taste buds with the real thing.
