Paradai, founded in 2016 by friends Phurich and Warit, means “friendship” in Thai. The cacao is sourced directly from smallholder farmers, without intermediaries – ensuring that the entire value chain remains in the country of origin. Paradai’s passion lies in giving their Bean-to-Bar chocolate a distinct and unique signature. Through careful and individual fermentation of the raw beans, the aromatic profiles of the different cacao varieties are optimized to unlock their full potential.

The cacao for this chocolate comes from the southeastern part of Thailand.
The specialty lies in the careful selection and pre-selection of the cocoa fruits before processing. The cocoa comes exclusively from red cocoa fruits, which make up around 10% of the harvest. These cocoa beans behave differently: they ferment faster at a higher fermentation temperature. Their aroma is different and these beans definitely taste different. The result is a chocolate with unique flavors that stand out from other varieties, with a special chocolaty flavor profile reminiscent of citrus, sour cherry, lychee, guanabana, rum and honey, among others. This special Paradai chocolate was awarded Gold at the International Chocolate Awards World Final 2023 and overall Gold at the International Awards Asia Pacific 2024.
