A Canadian Indulgence

A cup of hot cocoa is the perfect end to an evening of skating or an afternoon of snowball fights. Though the creamy indulgence was considered a luxury item hundreds of years ago due to the high cost of cocoa beans, you’d be hard pressed not to find some form of hot chocolate in any Canadian household today. And what could be more Canadian than maple with your sweet and warm chocolate drink? Camino maple hot chocolate, created by La Siembra Cooperative, relies on small-scale farming operations for its organic and fair-trade ingredients. Hot chocolate was the first product launched by the co-op back in 1999, so it’s “always been near and dear to our hearts,” says Mélanie Broguet, Camino's manager of product development. With organic maple sugar from Citadelle, a maple syrup producer co-operative in Quebec, cocoa producer co-ops in the Dominican Republic and a sugar producer in Paraguay, the vegan friendly drink is sweater-weather ready for all.
