For Askinosie Chocolate, the craft and quality of their chocolate are in almost equal balance with doing as much good as they can in the world, but their first priority is to craft the best-tasting chocolate possible.

One of the incredibly good things that they are doing for the world is facilitating Chocolate University! CU is an experiential learning program with a worldwide reach for local students. The goal is to inspire students through the lens of artisan chocolate making to be global citizens and embrace the idea that businesses can solve world problems.
