Product variants

Three varietals of mesquite trees are native to the Sonoran Desert, and the edible legumes they produce have been a staple food for indigenous people for the thousands of years. Mesquite pods are packed with natural sugars that, when toasted, lend a nutty and caramel-like flavor to this non-traditional white chocolate bar. We are proud to source our mesquite pod from the San Xavier Cooperative Farm, who employs tribal members to wild-harvest the pods, sun dry them whole, and then mill into a flour on their hammer mill.

What we taste –

caramel, toasted nuts, sweetgrass

Shipping & Returns

Shipping

All orders ship from our Monsoon Chocolate shipping hub in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. We generally ship Monday through Wednesday through USPS or UPS to help prevent packages from sitting in transit over the weekend. A flat rate of $16 applies to standard shipping. At this time, we cannot ship to PO boxes or APO addresses.

Because our products are perishable, we cannot accept returns. If your order arrives in less than ideal condition or something is not as expected, please contact us and we will review your concern with care.

Traceable and responsible ingredients

We believe that establishing a sustainable and traceable supply chain should be a baseline standard for any business, but especially when working in an industry that is still wrought with human rights abuses and corruption. We are dedicated to driving positive change through responsible purchasing, and through establishing long term relationships with our producer-partners.
