Here, cocoa is grown organically in diverse agroforestry gardens – shaded by banana, maize and native trees – without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead of selling dried beans into the commodity market, thousands of smallholder farmers deliver fresh (“wet”) cocoa to Kokoa Kamili’s central fermentary in the village of Mbingu. Kokoa Kamili pays a premium, significantly above local market prices, and pays farmers promptly in cash – a simple, direct way to raise household incomes and support community upliftment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the fermentary, the beans are carefully fermented in tiered wooden boxes for around six days, then sun-dried on raised beds. Each lot is monitored for temperature and moisture and fully traceable back to the farmers who grew it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKokoa Kamili’s beans now appear in award-winning craft chocolate around the world, including special “Women’s Lot” projects that spotlight women-led farms and fund secondary-school scholarships in the local community.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are the vibrant, fruit-forward beans we use in our African Artisanal Cacao range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FeedmeGreen","offers":[{"title":"100% cacao paste slab 500g","offer_id":67711830065466,"sku":"FMG-100CACAO-500G","price":575.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"70% cacao slab 500g","offer_id":67711830688058,"sku":"FMG-70CACAO-500G","price":575.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100% cacao paste slab 150g","offer_id":67711830720826,"sku":"FMG-100CACAO-150G","price":235.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/8795\/6794\/files\/product-708ba962-f463-4f00-992f-284b40828c43-0-1792141266825-lZE2H7WgH6dCzXoT0ujvO1s0YFFbuV.jpg?v=1792142801","url":"https:\/\/feedmegreen.co.za\/products\/cacao-paste-organic-african-wheel-100-cacao-500g","provider":"FeedmeGreen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
