Ethically Sourced. Thoughtfully Selected

Every ingredient has a purpose. That's why Encore Chocolate Sauce & Mocha Mix contains just three carefully selected ingredients—premium cocoa powder, organic cane sugar, and sea salt. Nothing extra. Nothing unnecessary. Just rich, balanced chocolate crafted to complement exceptional coffee.

Ecuadorian Cocoa Powder

Most cocoa powder is an anonymous blend from unnamed origins. Ours isn't. We use transparently sourced Arriba Nacional cocoa from Ecuador, prized for its rich chocolate character and remarkably smooth finish. Dutch processing deepens the color and balances the flavor, pairing beautifully with espresso without overpowering it.

Organic Brazilian Cane Sugar

Organic Brazilian cane sugar provides clean, balanced sweetness that lets the cocoa take center stage. Grown through the Green Cane Project and harvested without burning, it supports healthier soil and biodiversity. The result is a smooth, well-rounded chocolate that complements espresso rather than masking its character.

Fine Sea Salt

A touch of fine sea salt brings the entire recipe into balance by enhancing the cocoa's natural complexity. It rounds the sweetness, brightens the chocolate flavor, and leaves a clean, smooth finish in every cup.

Designed for Better Café Operations

Every aspect of Encore Chocolate Sauce & Mocha Mix was intentionally designed to simplify preparation, reduce waste, and deliver consistent results behind the bar. The result is a chocolate program that's easier to manage while maintaining the quality your customers expect.

More Chocolate. Less Shipping.

Encore ships as a premium dry blend, so you're paying for exceptional chocolate—not pre-mixed sauce. The result is a lighter, more efficient product that's easier to ship, store, and handle.

Mix Fresh as Needed.

Prepare only the amount you need, when you need it, for consistent flavor from the first drink to the last with less waste. Shelf-stable storage means your next batch is always ready.

Built for Your Margins.

Built for independent coffee shops: premium flavor at a cost per drink that delivers exceptional value in every cup you serve.

Simple Equipment.

No specialized equipment required. Just hot water, a pitcher, and a whisk are all you need to prepare smooth, café-quality chocolate sauce in minutes.

Consistent Results.

Every batch follows the same carefully developed recipe for dependable flavor and texture. Your staff can prepare it with confidence, serving consistent drinks every time.

Why We Created This

Years ago, we took a friend to his very first specialty coffee shop. He ordered a house-made mocha, and that one drink completely changed how he thought about coffee. It wasn't just a great mocha—it became the beginning of his appreciation for specialty coffee.

That experience stayed with us. We realized that chocolate drinks are often someone's introduction to specialty coffee, yet cafés have surprisingly few options for ethically sourced, specialty-quality chocolate. While coffee has embraced transparency, origin, and craftsmanship, chocolate behind the bar has often been limited to products built for convenience rather than quality.

As specialty coffee roasters and award-winning bean-to-bar chocolate makers, we believe chocolate deserves the same care as the coffee it accompanies. So we created Encore Chocolate Sauce & Mocha Mix—a clean, thoughtfully crafted chocolate program made with exceptional ingredients and designed specifically for independent cafés.

Chocolate Expertise You Can Trust

At Encore, awards have never been the goal—they're the result of a relentless focus on understanding chocolate. From sourcing and flavor development to formulation and balance, every step has helped deepen our knowledge of what makes exceptional chocolate.

That expertise has earned international recognition through the Craft Chocolate Challenge. More importantly, it's the same chocolate knowledge and uncompromising standards we applied to developing Encore Chocolate Sauce & Mocha Mix—giving cafés the confidence to serve chocolate crafted with the same care as their coffee.
