Ethical, chocolate holiday treats from Endangered Species Chocolate

Endangered Species Chocolate doesn't just turn on their social conscience during the holidays. They use only cocoa that is 100% ethically traded, meaning that they choose the small, family farms in Nigeria (the Conacada Co-op) as their source and ensure a living wage for those farmers. The ESC's holiday gift packs are a good chance to spread some holiday good will even farther than you ordinarily might. Their milk and dark chocolate holiday treats come in individually sized wrappers and are great stocking stuffers. Candyblog reviewed their chocolates before and described the milk chocolate as being similar to European-style bars, while the dark chocolate was fruity, buttery and dense.

Needless to say, our favorite gift on their list is the Limited Edition Chef's Deluxe Chocolate Baking Kit. It includes gourmet baking rounds (9 oz. of 88% cocoa dark baking chocolate); two milk chocolate bars; roasted Cocoa Nibs(6 oz.); a chocolate-colored apron, a spatula, a large hand-coiled green apple bamboo mixing bowl and a couple of chocolate recipes to get you started. At $95, it's not cheap, but it is a chocolatly gift that will make a great impression and that will have a utility (from the bowl, apron, etc.) that will last a whole lot longer than the included chocolate bars.
