Bean-to-bar chocolate.
Podcast Episode
Sandra Bedoya, Co-Founder of Nibble Chocolate, on the challenges of creating the perfect bean-to-bar chocolate, the importance of sourcing cocoa beans from fair-trade farms, and the challenges of becoming a new mom while also running a business
“Growing up, I used to sell chocolates…I would sell them “illegally” in school. I wasn’t allowed, the principal would always catch me and give me a hard time but I would always go back and sell more. I used to say “I have to go to the bathroom,” then I would take my little bag and I would actually go meet the other kids at their breaks so they could buy my chocolates.
