Cox&Co. Cacao Secures Year-Round Listing with Waitrose

Single origin dark chocolate brand Cox&Co. Cacao has secured two new listings with Waitrose following the success of its seasonal ranges in store.

Launching into 190 Waitrose stores on 5th April, two of Cox&Co.’s unique flavour combinations—Miso & Caramel and Bee Pollen & Honey—will now be available all year round, marking a first for the business, which previously sold products mainly online.

Cox&Co. Cacao’s Miso & Caramel is crafted from 47% cacao, flavoured with white miso and natural caramel for a delicious balance of saltiness and sweetness. Bee Pollen & Honey is made with 60% cacao dark chocolate, blended with honey and a sprinkling of bee pollen for a rich chocolate hit.

“We are thrilled to be working with Waitrose, who will be stocking two of our most popular flavoured bars. Following a huge demand from Waitrose customers for our luxury dark chocolate Easter eggs, it made sense to supply products that filled the gap in between the seasonal holidays. Miso & Caramel and Bee Pollen & Honey are both incredibly popular and we hope customers will enjoy these unique flavour combinations,” explains founder Gavin Cox.

All of Cox&Co. Cacao’s packaging is fully sustainable, plant-based and fully recyclable or home compostable, meeting Waitrose’s commitment to reduce plastic packaging not only in its own brand, but in the brands and producers it collaborates with too. The bars will launch exclusively in Waitrose in a paper flow wrap.

“As a brand, we have similar shared commitments and values to Waitrose, which makes this a great partnership. We work with Colombia’s Luker Chocolate estate, investing in farmers, communities and sustainable farming methods to produce chocolate that’s as ethical as possible. Waitrose works closely with brands that are focused on sustainability and we are very proud to now be stocked in stores nationwide,” adds Gavin.

Cox & Co. Cacao is launching Miso & Caramel (70g) and Bee Pollen & Honey (70g) into 190 Waitrose stores nationwide from 5th April (RSP £3.50).
