We are on a small, but mighty mission to create a better-tasting world - right here from our home in Aotearoa New Zealand!

And we know that when local craftspeople come together, that’s where the magic really happens…

That’s why for our partnership with our good friend and Kiwi fashion ICON Karen Walker, we are using New Zealand-grown and roasted hazelnuts from Uncle Joe's in Marlborough!

Did you know that many of the hazelnut products you buy have travelled for miles from overseas?

Our WCF hazelnuts only had to make a little hop over the Cook Strait to reach Eva St ♥️

Have you tried them yet? https://wcf.co.nz/products/https-wcf-co-nz-collections-products-raspberry-rose-milk-chocolate-hazelnuts-150g

🤫 and calling all chocolate hazelnut fans, we might just have some more good news for you very soon…

A little something from a beautiful menagerie is heading this way…

Any guesses?

It’s a WCF classic, it’s a WCF fave - but we want to know, are you a Salted Caramel Dark Chocolate person or a Salted Caramel Milk Chocolate person?

Let us know 🧡🐯

If you have been with us for a while, you’ll know our relationship with Vanuatu is a special one 🇻🇺

Our Pacific Grower Partner Programme is dedicated to improving the livelihoods for cocoa farmers and their families across Vanuatu and the Pacific - these wonderful Pacific-grown beans are part of our small but mighty place in making a better tasting world!

During Vanuatu Prime Minister Salwai’s recent visit to New Zealand, we welcomed three new chocolate makers to our Chocolatier Experience - Mrs Justine Salwai, Mrs Patricia Mahe, and Mrs Amanda Luxon - getting hands-on with tempering, creating, and wrapping their own chocolate bars 🍫

And of course, learning about our growing commitment and connection to Vanuatu and the Pacific 🇻🇺 🍫

We’re really not just saying this, we were impressed with the flavour combinations (but the wrapping skills might still need a little bit of practice)!

Well, we did say there was an open category for this year’s Chocolate Dreams… and that includes one of our friends from a land (not so) far away!

A huge thank you to the team at Wētā Workshop for their help with this one and for sponsoring this year’s competition 🪄✨
