Auro Chocolate is an internationally awarded tree-to-bar chocolate brand founded in 2019 that promotes sustainability by working directly with local farmers to create fine Filipino cacao beans, ingredients, and retail products with unique and bold tropical flavors.

In 2021, Auro held its second World Chocolate Fair at the S Maison Mall where brands Poison, Bubu, Overdoughs, Half Saints, Conrad Manila, and Mary Grace also participated. The first World Chocolate Fair was held in the same location in July 2019. – Steph Arnaldo and Elle Guison/Rappler.com
