@@Fruitarian. it's true! I'm in NYC and there's chocolate at whole foods from the Philippines. It's $8 for 1 freakin bar when others are cheaper, help farmers in south america and sustainable.
Yea like me I didn't know there is like this in my country.. We need to support them so we can have cheap chocolate, and if we support the farmers we will have cheap rice farmers and other farmers etc.
Don't you worry guys,for sure,slowly mai-introduce ito nationwide...kaya sa ating mga alam na,just sharing to others will help...if ever na may makita ako somewhere,I will definitely buy it,for tasting then will promote to others too😊
How can we do that when there's no filipino chocolates stacked whenever we visit markets. It almost feel like it's only for export purposes :( they should stack that in our markets here than those toblerons, meiji and other foreign chocolate products because that's what I'm seeing until now :/
Just in time for Philippines to get into the cacao market since there is a shortage of cacao beans worldwide. It's fortunate that the world likes our cacao beans.
Actually the right term is cacao beans. Cocoa refers to the powdered form of the cacao beans which has been processed in a high temperature and may contain sugar.
You should check out Auro Chocolate. They work directly with the farmers to ensure mutual benefit. Their farmer Mang Jose won top 20 in Paris last year and they even flew him there!
@Archnid 001 most people in Luzon specifically people in Manila are really ignorant about Mindanao, they are full of stereotypes. punta muna kayo d'to para mapatunayan n'yo yang sinasabi n'yo. ayos? :-)
The only Philippine chocolate I'm tasting is Goya! And the best chocolate is being sent overseas? WTF? I don't see this in local stores. We want to buy it and eat it too! Sell it here.
Makes me happy being a Davaoeño, sure we may not have all the infrastructure that Luzon has, but we have all the fruits and vegetables here that are very affordable, food is abundant and cheap and people get along. We can buy these products at the local market and I can tell you its a whole so much better than those branded chocolates, the aroma is very earthy that I cannot explain. Also please stop stereotyping that Mindanao is full of war and terrorists, I experienced more crime when I was in Quezon, stayed there for 2 years and my dorm got robbed twice which made me go back to my hometown
Yes wala talaga akong nakitang mga chocolate na andito. Mas madami pa imported na chocolate. Sana mag supply sila sa local market para ma appreciate natin ang sariling atin.
Its available in the local market but only in davao where some chocolatiers are located while theo&filo can be bought through human nature. The availability of these chocolates to the wider Philippine local market is affected by the fact that most retailers prefer ordering chocolates abroad as most filipinos only knows imported brands. Also i think that it would take some time for filipinos to appreciate its taste because we are used to the taste of foreign brands especially the dark chocolates. Kasi if you are really an avid chocolate eater you can really appreciate the aroma and taste of these local brands. Basta masarap talaga xa.

@@gonicholaigo1 that is such a great news.. equal recognition is what the farmers deserve after all they are the back bone into this industry.. thank you for sharing.. btw I live in mindanao that is why I only tried the chocolate in Davao.. I wanna ask where can I see the Auro chocolate.. thanks
@@evg2653 wishing the same thing.. even our rice farmers were exploited for such a long time.. hopefully with media we have right now.. farmers and entrepreneurs will be wiser enough coz there are more eyes to watch them 😂
It's amazing to hear that at the core of this growing industry the farmers are not left behind. With good guidance and partnership with these growing companies, our farmers will also learn more to hone their craft. I hope they get they fully get the support they need learning and resource wise. We owe it to their hard work that we get to consume and experience what we eat and indulge in.
Arsica The Sweetest yea but it would be a double edged sword... as the guy said earlier, it would destroy forests to make way for farms that would most likely ruin local wildlife

@@bongie555 Unfortunately, even Filipino farmers are pushing their children to pursue professional careers because here in the PH it is hard to make money if you work in the agricultural sector. There is such a huge lack of support from the Philippine government and the laws being passed today just reeks of being anti-poor. Filipino farmers are losing billions of pesos because of the Rice Tariffication bill. So many Filipino farmers have died defending their land and their rights. Our government seems to only serve the rich and powerful while neglecting a majority of Filipinos. It's a good thing to see more people gaining interest in supporting the agricultural sector of our country but I really hope our government grows a heart soon because the situation of most people in our country really is heartbreaking to see and hear about.

Proud to be Filipino. I live in California here in the United States and I buy Theo and & Philo chocolates at Trades Joe and Whole foods Supermarkets. I am glad to come across this video and learn about the booming and growing industry of cacao farming and Chocolate making industry. We travel to Europe on a cruise ships Very year and as part of our tour we visit and stops at chocolate shops. Our group will buy lots of specialty chocolate for our pasalubong Back in the California. My husband and I and 7 other people in the cruise Choose to go to a chocolate worship in Estonia. What a wonderful experience. Cheers to our fellow Filipinos and our fellow farmers Mabuhay!!!! Ad to
Frankly I'm not interested in chocolate bars with emulsifiers or are too processed. I do hope they give importance to producing good old fashioned barely processed chocolate tablea because imo, it captures the true essence of chocolate..
Brings back memories of when i was a kid, my mom and lola would make homemade tablea from our cacao trees in d garden. So proud of our very own cacao farmers and their love for their products ❤️❤️
I have tried Philippine Chocolate in different varieties for the past 3 years ranging from bitter to Malagos chocolates that have floral notes but subtlely sweet. It's great the Philippines are getting recognized for their chocolates. It will be great when the Philippines will market and sell their coffees.
I just hope sa pagsikat at pag-angat ng kita ng mga kompanyang ito na gumagawa ng tsokolating pilipino....di naman sana mababarat ang hirap at pagod ng ating mga mahihirap na mga magsasaka at mabigyan naman ng tsansang maiangat ang kani-kanilang kabuhayan at kita....
Other Philippine products that should be developed are ube, silimay,, Ylang Ylang and kalamansi. These products are typhoon resistant and have also great global demand. Coco chanel's empire rose because of Chanel number 5, made from Ylang Ylang. Those ascot and fascinator hats donned by the most fashionable women are made from Silimay, Philippine flax. We used to produce these products and sell them before in the 30's until the Europeans replanted and shifted the market to their dominions.
W oW first time to know we have a good chocolate 🍫 product ,good job well done 👍.i want to try, I loved bitter 70%. God bless and peace grace Philippines 🇵🇭 Mabuhay.
Bravo to the chocolate makers of the Philippines. I have yet to try the others but I always get a taste of Auro on all my flights adds a little joy to my long Philippine Airlines trips.

Filipinos Chocolate is taking over the world...Swiss and Belgium chocolate..watch out... This will definitely makes The Philippines gets ahead of Singapore and Japan in no time! ☝🏼👏👏👏👏👍🏼
In our land in mindanao or evrrywhere there is a cacao between the cofe beans plants. We just throwing the seed after we eat but some we bring it bck to our house and make it powder to be use as a coffee drink sometimes .. But now i dont know if there is a cacao in our place
Philippines should expand farming cacao because the weather is very compatible to grow cacao trees. I once went to Samar and I've seen people eating a trufle like chocolate and cacao drinks and I was shocked how good it is. It's very high quality and the people just consume it in an ordinary day, I was so envious we don't have that in Manila
Just visited the Philippines for the first time last week, so happy I bring home some Theo & Philo, and Risa chocolates. The flavors reminded me of my travels in the Philippines, and wanted to support the industry :)
Wooow I'm so inspired the way how you all work it hard....the fruit of your labor is highly appreciated because you guys work with all your heart....GOD bless your business.
This is something I would love to get behind 100%! Great documentary CNN! Kudos to this industry that not just promotes the chocolate companies but also take care of the welfare of the farmers! 💯
Ahh, i knew Auro would be in this. But damn, can’t find them anywhere, bc they’re located only in specific high-end shops, or in the coffee and tea leaf, which isn’t found in a number of provinces in the country, plus the café only has specific types being sold. Ugh
Our research in 11th grade was about the Philippines Cacao Industry and we interviewed cacao farmers from our province. It was such an inspiring study and we visited a lot of farms. I hope this industry grows. I really want to study agriculture but circumstances had lead me to another course but I still want to shift to agricultural and biosystems engineering i hope i could transfer next school year.
I tasted the chocolate-covered almonds from Malagos recently and they were absolute perfection. Not too sweet with a beautiful bitterness from their cocoa-powder dustings. I almost consumed the whole tin in one sitting. Would definitely choose it over the super sweet chocolates from abroad. I’ve seen Theo and Filo around so I might give it a try soon.
Wow! I think its time na tangkilikin ang sariling atin. Pricey siguro pero kung d nmn pahuhuli sa lasa ng mga imported brands . Abay support na tayo sa pinoy chocolate . Nkatulong pa sa farmers natin.
"Rob Crisostomo , owner: Tigre Y Oliva".? I wonder if he is a part owner of the said brand. If I am not mistaken "Tigre Y Oliva" was founded by Simone Mastrota, an Italian chocolatier who was based in California, but now living (not so sure if they still live there though) in La Union. Mastrota is married to a Filipina and they have two daughters named "Tiger Lily" and "Olivia". The chocolate brand, "Tigre Y Oliva" is named after their daughters.
The last time I went home I bought some malagos chocolate as a present to some of my non Filipino colleagues and they can't believe that we have such fine chocolate.
@@jameskevinavena2569 Subsidies are a great idea but I don't think that the coconut, sugar and tobacco farmers did not develop their products even with government subsidies. The cacao farmers are better off selling their products to the small chocolate producers.
As a chocolate lover. This makes me feel more than proud and contented hearing news about our own chocolate production. I hope to find it soon.🥰🥰🥰 Chocolate and mangoes together would be the greatest. Thanks for this content.
Philippines chocolates but I couldn't find any of them in the market. Are they exclusive to luxury lifestyle filipino and for export? Why can't we taste our own local chocolate 🙁
I remember my Lola and her workers when I was 5 yrs old. We would walk up her cacao & coffee plantation strip in a mountain in Mindanao. The crisp, foggy mornings and aroma of herbs on the way, passing a waterfall for a break then onto her plantation. We would spend the weekend there & she would show us how they're harvested, dried and brought back to town to be grounded. She would only go as far as making "sikwate" and of course her arabica coffee which I learnt to drink to the despair of my Mum. Philippines had been one of the coffee & cacao producers worldwide before until instant coffees came around. Now I'm living and working here in Europe and a lover of coffee and chocolate only brings back memories of my funny and great Lola Auring...i love and miss you 'La xxx
The Philippines seem very similar to Mexico and other Latin countries due to their Spanish colonisers but have their own flare Any champorado lovers I also realise Mexican champurrado and filo champorado sounds the same
The governors and officials of the Philippines under the Spanish Empire were MEXICANS, from 1565 to 1815, or for 250 years of the Manila-Acapulco (Mexico) Galleon Trades. Both Mexico and Philippines were part of the NEW SPAIN colonies of Spain. Many products from the Philippines were brought to Mexico (and the Caribbean) and vice versa, before proceeding to Spain (and Europe). A certain species of tobacco came from Cuba, and planted in the Philippines, creating tobacco plantations in the islands.
I hope the government will continuously and increase support for these products, farms and the farmers. Our country has one of the highest potential and we should take advantage to produce this high value crops. I have tasted some of the Philippine brands mentioned and they taste so good!
Wow. For the entire video, I got goosebumps; from the beginning to the end! I'm truly inspired with these young business owners. Gusto ko silang tularan! Pero pano? How to start? When?

As long as the government will support our local farmers like how Korea support theirs, they will work hard to be on top.
Naalala ko dito lala at chocnut.proud pinoy product🇵🇭👏👏👏
Philippines should expand farming cacao because the weather is very compatible to grow cacao trees. I once went to Samar and I've seen people eating a trufle like chocolate and cacao drinks and I was shocked how good it is. It's very high quality and the people just consume it in an ordinary day, I was so envious we don't have that in Manila
Last Christmas, i bought my mom a chocolate fountain for her cacao chocolate specialty 😁
Just visited the Philippines for the first time last week, so happy I bring home some Theo & Philo, and Risa chocolates. The flavors reminded me of my travels in the Philippines, and wanted to support the industry :)
These product didn't sale in the market in my region.
Same same bro
Same 😔
Same.
Same
This cuz they aren't known by Filipinos
We only know diary milk and other imported ones....
The malagos dark chocolate is super good! I didn't even notice na local chocolate pala siya hanggang sa chineck ko yung packaging and na amaze ko.
Yep!
Wooow I'm so inspired the way how you all work it hard....the fruit of your labor is highly appreciated because you guys work with all your heart....GOD bless your business.
This is one industry that we should support. If ever i see this on our local groceries I would buy it.
Cacao🤤 we used to have cacao in the back yard and now I'm craving 🤤
Perfect for Valentine's. Go Philippines!
sana lang wag pasukan ng mga foreigner para mga tunay na PINOY ang makinabang
Tough luck with the current president na maka China. Siguradong bibilhin agad yan ng isang Chinese corporation like usual.
sallie cunan, yes should be true Pilipino product ,go go Pinoy to prgress, mga Pinoy dapat tangkilikin Mga Gawang Pinoy 😊🙏🏻🌈☘️ ! !
sana may Hersheys chocolate with a Filipino taste! 😉
This is something I would love to get behind 100%! Great documentary CNN! Kudos to this industry that not just promotes the chocolate companies but also take care of the welfare of the farmers! 💯
I’ve been working in the chocolate industry in Dubai for 15 years. AURO CHOCOLATE... BEKE NEMEN 🙏
It is being process so clean NICE !
Ahh, i knew Auro would be in this. But damn, can’t find them anywhere, bc they’re located only in specific high-end shops, or in the coffee and tea leaf, which isn’t found in a number of provinces in the country, plus the café only has specific types being sold. Ugh
Our research in 11th grade was about the Philippines Cacao Industry and we interviewed cacao farmers from our province. It was such an inspiring study and we visited a lot of farms. I hope this industry grows. I really want to study agriculture but circumstances had lead me to another course but I still want to shift to agricultural and biosystems engineering i hope i could transfer next school year.
I tasted the chocolate-covered almonds from Malagos recently and they were absolute perfection. Not too sweet with a beautiful bitterness from their cocoa-powder dustings. I almost consumed the whole tin in one sitting. Would definitely choose it over the super sweet chocolates from abroad. I’ve seen Theo and Filo around so I might give it a try soon.
did you get to try Theo and Philo? love their 65% dark choc w calamansi
Wow! I think its time na tangkilikin ang sariling atin. Pricey siguro pero kung d nmn pahuhuli sa lasa ng mga imported brands . Abay support na tayo sa pinoy chocolate . Nkatulong pa sa farmers natin.
"Rob Crisostomo , owner: Tigre Y Oliva".? I wonder if he is a part owner of the said brand.
If I am not mistaken "Tigre Y Oliva" was founded by Simone Mastrota, an Italian chocolatier who was based in California, but now living (not so sure if they still live there though) in La Union. Mastrota is married to a Filipina and they have two daughters named "Tiger Lily" and "Olivia". The chocolate brand, "Tigre Y Oliva" is named after their daughters.
baka binili niya ung name ng tigre y oliva
Wow 😲😀
negosyo kz un sir cla prin my ari nyan iba lng pinadalang name pra hindi halata
Whoah!
Kasi po. Kapg foreign investor ka, ang hatian kasi is 60-40. 60% Filipino own, 40% for the foreign.
Is it me or am I the only one whose been drooling in the entire video?
Nabasa ko
" Philippine Presents : The Rise of Palpatine Chocolate"
Daming Star Wars napapanood ko kasi
The last time I went home I bought some malagos chocolate as a present to some of my non Filipino colleagues and they can't believe that we have such fine chocolate.
Irony that we produced much of these products yet very expensive when it’s out jn our market
The cost of producing quality products.
if there are government subsidies to support our local producers, price would go down fast.
@@jameskevinavena2569 Subsidies are a great idea but I don't think that the coconut, sugar and tobacco farmers did not develop their products even with government subsidies.
The cacao farmers are better off selling their products to the small chocolate producers.
I've always loved bringing Kablon chocolates from Mindanao to Visayas. It's really joyful to share a hidden gem from my hometown.
God Blessed the people behind the business..foreign countries starting to buy to us our best cacao..mabuhay po..
something to be proud of...it is good to hear that these local products is getting known not only nationwide but internationally as well..
the legend of the Chocolate Hills derived from Bohol. cacao made tablia, we drink ot everyday as sikwate.
Amazing..! God bless the Philippines 🇵🇭 God bless all the people behind this industry..
GO Philippines... Show to the world your talents
I didn't know about this. This should be advertised more in the country.
We eat these cacao beans before drying on the sun taste good
As a chocolate lover. This makes me feel more than proud and contented hearing news about our own chocolate production. I hope to find it soon.🥰🥰🥰 Chocolate and mangoes together would be the greatest. Thanks for this content.
Childhood: climbing up cacao trees and eat it
Tried them. Love it ❤️❤️❤️
I love Dark Chocolates...
This is beautifully done! I love the camera works and how each chocolatier were featured.
Sana magbenta kayo sa lazada at shoppee para makabili ako

Di pwede sa online chocolate. Hello okay ka lng edi tunaw na yan pag dating sayo! Hahahahaha
WoW! Can’t wait to savour this Philippines chocolate!
Philippines chocolates but I couldn't find any of them in the market. Are they exclusive to luxury lifestyle filipino and for export? Why can't we taste our own local chocolate 🙁
I'm from Davao so I find them easily. But they're also in Kultura. You can check they're website for a retail store near your area.

Sawang sawa na ako sa homemade cacao chocolate sa umaga 🤭 pure choco hehehehe
I remember my Lola and her workers when I was 5 yrs old. We would walk up her cacao & coffee plantation strip in a mountain in Mindanao. The crisp, foggy mornings and aroma of herbs on the way, passing a waterfall for a break then onto her plantation. We would spend the weekend there & she would show us how they're harvested, dried and brought back to town to be grounded. She would only go as far as making "sikwate" and of course her arabica coffee which I learnt to drink to the despair of my Mum. Philippines had been one of the coffee & cacao producers worldwide before until instant coffees came around. Now I'm living and working here in Europe and a lover of coffee and chocolate only brings back memories of my funny and great Lola Auring...i love and miss you 'La xxx
I'm a Filipino but I haven't eaten nor heard this. :(((
Same here
I am proud of Philippine Agriculture!
The Philippines seem very similar to Mexico and other Latin countries due to their Spanish colonisers but have their own flare
Any champorado lovers
I also realise Mexican champurrado and filo champorado sounds the same
Yeah because of the gallon trade :D
The governors and officials of the Philippines under the Spanish Empire were MEXICANS, from 1565 to 1815, or for 250 years of the Manila-Acapulco (Mexico) Galleon Trades. Both Mexico and Philippines were part of the NEW SPAIN colonies of Spain. Many products from the Philippines were brought to Mexico (and the Caribbean) and vice versa, before proceeding to Spain (and Europe). A certain species of tobacco came from Cuba, and planted in the Philippines, creating tobacco plantations in the islands.
I'm so happy that we have local quality chocolates. I love chocolate.
Goya, please improve your prduct taste.
Ricoa also
Trueee
Ik
Hahah. They're going for the low-end market though, so that's understandable.
yeah right! Goya is not that tasty. they should enhance their recipes in making good chocolates!
Congralations Auro Chocolate! Best chocolate in the Philippines!
Mas Mahal pa sa Hershey's
This is really great to watch. Very good documentary.
Malagos ❤️
Right!
I hope the government will continuously and increase support for these products, farms and the farmers. Our country has one of the highest potential and we should take advantage to produce this high value crops. I have tasted some of the Philippine brands mentioned and they taste so good!
I only see these being sold at airports.
available in big supermarkets now
It is good that we really become aware and be of course proud of the steps of our country towards rising again.
I wanted to learn to do business like this but I don't know how
Wow. For the entire video, I got goosebumps; from the beginning to the end! I'm truly inspired with these young business owners. Gusto ko silang tularan! Pero pano? How to start? When?
