Choosing a chocolate development partner goes beyond price. 🍫 Ahead of IFT FIRST 2026, one question stands out: can chocolate deliver functional benefits without compromising the sensory experience?

The result? Functional chocolate with the flavour, texture and indulgence consumers expect.

From insight to industrial scale. 🚀 Camila Castañeda, Head of Product Design & Development at Luker Chocolate, breaks down how we turn your chocolate concepts into viable commercial realities through our B4B co-development process. The journey explained:

Happy #WorldChocolateDay! 🍫 A resilient supply chain relies on long-term partnerships. We work shoulder to shoulder with 15,000+ farmers in Colombia for a steady supply. 🌱

High price transfer matters. 🤎 We ensure an average 90% of the London Cocoa Price goes directly to our suppliers. This hands-on approach guarantees the quality your brand needs.
