Cocoa Reimagined—With Origin, Quality, and Diversity

Die Welt des Kakaos verändert sich – und wir gehen mutig neue Wege. Bei Becks cocoa bedeutet das: höchste Qualität, nachhaltiger Anbau und unverwechselbare Vielfalt. Wir beziehen unsere Bohnen direkt aus den Ursprungsländern und verarbeiten sie vor Ort in Bayern besonders schonend. So entsteht Trinkschokolade, die authentisch schmeckt – naturbelassen, charakterstark und voller Genuss ist.

Discover Our Cocoa Beans

Every cocoa tells the story of its origin. That’s why we source our organic cocoa beans from four exceptional growing regions: the Dominican Republic, Sierra Leone, the Congo, and Peru. Each region shapes the cocoa in its own unique way—from fruity and floral notes to intense, full-bodied flavors.

From these carefully selected single-origin cacaos, we craft a harmonious blend. In this way, we combine the distinctive characteristics of each origin into a balanced flavor experience with depth, complexity, and consistently high quality.

Our cacao beans come from sustainable organic farming and are cultivated by experienced smallholder farmers in close collaboration with local cooperatives. Long-term partnerships, fair trade relationships, and complete traceability form the foundation for a cacao that not only delivers exceptional flavor but is also produced responsibly.

Natural Cocoa – Natural & Unadulterated

Our cocoa specialties are made from natural cocoa. This means that after harvesting, fermentation, and roasting, it is not alkalized. Unlike alkalized cocoa (also known as the “Dutch process”), the cocoa retains its natural form.

As a result, natural cocoa retains its original character: a natural reddish-brown color, a complex aroma with subtle fruity and chocolatey notes, and a pleasantly intense cocoa flavor. The flavor diversity of the various cocoa origins is preserved, making every cup an authentic culinary experience.

Another advantage: Since the cocoa is not alkalized, many of the naturally occurring plant compounds—especially polyphenols and flavanols—are preserved to a greater extent. These phytochemicals are known for their antioxidant properties and make natural cocoa a particularly natural choice.

Natural cocoa stands for genuine cocoa flavor—unadulterated, aromatic, and as close to the cocoa bean as gentle processing allows.

Pure, healthy, and incredibly delicious.

How to prepare natural cocoa

Since natural cocoa is not alkalized, it does not dissolve in liquids as easily as highly processed cocoa. This is a natural characteristic and not a quality defect. For a particularly creamy result, we recommend first mixing the cocoa powder with a little warm milk to form a smooth paste, and then adding the remaining warm milk or plant-based milk. This allows the full flavor to develop, and the cocoa can be enjoyed with a particularly smooth consistency.

Single-Origin Cocoa—the flavor of a single origin. Our Especials

“Single Origin” means that the cocoa comes exclusively from a specific source—for example, a single country, a region, or even a single cooperative. Unlike a blend, no cocoa beans from different countries of origin are mixed together.

Each growing region gives the cocoa its own unique character. Climate, soil composition, altitude, and traditional farming methods influence the aroma of the cacao beans. Depending on the origin, this can result in fruity, nutty, floral, or rich chocolatey flavor notes.

Single-origin cacao brings these regional characteristics to life and offers an authentic taste experience that reflects the unique character of its origin. Similar to wine or specialty coffee, the focus is on what is known as “terroir”—the interplay of nature and origin.

Single-origin cocoa is particularly well-suited for anyone who wants to discover and consciously savor the diversity and individuality of different cocoa origins.
