Livstory

Livstory is an active artisanal bean-to-bar producer hailing from Romania. As a dedicated maker in the growing Eastern European specialty chocolate scene, they transform raw cacao into finished bars within their own facility. Their identity is rooted in a narrative approach to chocolate, where every bar serves as a medium for the story of its origin and the journey from farm to foil.

Because Livstory operates as a bean-to-bar maker, their style focuses on highlighting the unique personality of different cacao varieties. Their process involves meticulous roasting and refining to achieve a texture that respects the complexity of the beans. This results in a portfolio where the vibrant, natural profiles of the cacao are allowed to shine, offering a sensory experience that is both authentic and sophisticated.

Integrity in sourcing is a cornerstone of the Livstory philosophy. The maker emphasizes direct trade practices, which involves building transparent relationships with cacao producers at the source. This approach prioritizes social responsibility and quality, ensuring that the journey of the chocolate begins with ethical partnerships and a deep respect for the land and the farmers who cultivate it.
