What is Ghanaian chocolate making known for?
Ghana has been one of the world's largest cacao producers for more than a century, but for most of that time its beans left the country raw and were made into chocolate elsewhere. The Ghanaian makers on Chof belong to a newer generation of small bean-to-bar producers, mostly in and around Accra, who roast and press bars on Ghanaian soil.
Ghanaian cacao is the reference point for what a lot of people think chocolate should taste like, and it goes into blends all over the world. Almost all of that crop has historically been sold as raw beans, with the roasting, grinding and moulding happening in Europe and North America, so the value was added far from the farms.
Making chocolate in Ghana means working in the heat and humidity that cacao grows in, which is harder than it sounds and is part of why the local scene stayed small for so long. Most of the makers listed here roast and grind in and around Accra, working with beans from the forest belt inland, including the Ashanti and Eastern regions.
