"Cocoa Paper is a great idea that helps empower a community not just the chocolatier, the farm owner or the farmer but everyone touched at the ground level by cacao production.  Of these four products we've looked at today the leather journal is my favorite because the pages lay flatter than the two notebooks." 
TammyJo Eckhart, The Chocolate Cult

"Do you think cocoa is only about food? If you think so then you will find yourself wring when you visit PT Community Solutions International in Badung, Bali"
