      Most big brands (even in Europe) are terrible because they rely on child slavery. There’s a documentary about it.

      If you want to buy European chocolate, well it can’t be fully European because Europe doesn’t grow cocoa, at least look for fair trade chocolate. That or an equivalent should be the minimum claim a company makes. I say claim, because that’s what they are claims. None us will know for sure until we step foot in the places where these companies source their chocolate.

      If you want an easy list https://www.chocolatescorecard.com/ has some. Top of the list of small, european companies:

      Tony’s is top of the “medium and large companies”. Rittersport is also up there, but I don’t trust that at all. They are closely followed by Nestlé, lol. Fuck Nestlé.
