Sibö Chocolate Elevates Costa Rican Craftsmanship with Prestigious International Awards

Heredia, Costa Rica – Costa Rica’s Sibö Chocolate has once again solidified its position as a global leader in artisanal chocolate, securing three prestigious awards at the International Chocolate Awards 2024. These accolades not only highlight the brand’s exceptional craftsmanship but also place Costa Rican chocolate on the world stage, further establishing the country as a premier destination for high-quality, sustainable cacao products.

In the recent competition, Sibö Chocolate was honored with a gold medal in the Plain/Origin Dark Chocolate Bars category for its 70% dark chocolate bar, made exclusively from Costa Rican cacao. Additionally, the brand earned silver and bronze awards in the Flavored Dark Chocolate and Ganaches/Truffles categories, respectively. These awards are a testament to the brand’s unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability in every step of its production process.

Winning these awards is a recognition of our dedication to preserving and promoting Costa Rican cacao. Our mission has always been to create chocolates that not only delight the palate but also honor the rich cultural heritage of Costa Rica.

This international recognition comes at a pivotal time for Sibö Chocolate, as the company prepares to compete in the World Finals of the International Chocolate Awards in London later this year. Competing among the best in the world, Sibö Chocolate aims to further showcase the unique flavors and high-quality standards that have become synonymous with the brand.

The recent awards also underscore the growing importance of Costa Rica as a hub for fine chocolate production. As global consumers become increasingly aware of the benefits of sustainable and ethically sourced products, Sibö Chocolate stands out for its commitment to these principles. The company sources its cacao beans from small-scale farmers who practice agroforestry, ensuring that their farming methods contribute to biodiversity and the well-being of local communities.

Moreover, Sibö Chocolate‘s dedication to sustainability extends beyond its sourcing practices. The brand is known for its eco-friendly packaging and efforts to minimize its carbon footprint throughout the production process. This holistic approach to sustainability has resonated with consumers around the world, contributing to the brand’s growing international presence.

With these latest accolades, Sibö Chocolate continues to raise the bar for artisanal chocolate not just in Costa Rica, but globally. The company’s success serves as an inspiration for other local producers, highlighting the potential for Costa Rican brands to excel on the world stage while maintaining a strong commitment to sustainability and ethical practices.

As Sibö Chocolate prepares for the upcoming World Finals, the entire nation watches with anticipation. The brand’s journey is a source of national pride, showcasing the best of Costa Rican craftsmanship, innovation, and dedication to preserving the rich cultural and natural heritage of the country.
