El Rey chocolate is suited for a wide range of applications, including baking, enrobing, ganaches, molding, or just eating out of hand!

Since its founding in 1929, El Rey has understood that great chocolate originates on the farm. It is for this reason that we long ago committed ourselves to becoming a world class agribusiness, painstakingly monitoring the entire process from bean to bar.
We’re a family business, one of the oldest chocolate manufacturers in Venezuela, and we have built our reputation on principles of uncompromising quality, team effort, and constant technological innovation.

El Rey sources 100% of its beans from Aprocao, a democratically run famer’s coop that we founded
In addition to sourcing, El Rey maintains a strong commitment to Venezuelan farmers, in the form of;
- Paying 60% above international cacao bean prices
- Providing training programs for farmers
- Ensuring beans are grown for maximum quality and farmer profitability
