For the third consecutive year, Peruvian chocolate brand Cacaosuyo won the special gold medal in the final round of the International Chocolate Awards ( ICA ) with its Camu Camu Yacón bar, which adds to the bronze medal also obtained with its presentation Lúcuma.

“The Peruvian chocolate continues on the winning path and this is demonstrated again in London where we have just received these important awards from the ICA that has been recognizing and rewarding every year the fine chocolate and aroma that is made by chocolatiers from the five continents,” he commented Samir Giha, CEO of Cacaosuyo.

He added that, at present, a culture of consumption of quality chocolate has been generated in Peru, due to the great amount of information that the Peruvian has and that he now knows that a chocolate must contain at least 35% of its cocoa in its formula to be considered as “chocolate”.
