One of our most recent loan recipients definitely fits in the "unique product" category: Coracao Confections opens in a new tab. Daniel Korson and Matthew Rogers make incredible chocolate… raw chocolate! These two young chefs have been perfecting their chocolate-making skills for several years, and they have managed to turn raw cacao into smooth, yummy vegan chocolates in flavors like Coconut Dream, Caramel Cup, and Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Cup. Check out the video to see Matt making some Coracao Confections chocolates and let us know what you think!
