They’ve raised environmental consciousness to a whole new level at Gnosis, a New York City chocolatier (www.gnosischocolate.com). Consider, for instance, that the boxes are 100% recycled, 80% post-consumer recycled, and FSC certified–with vegetable ink printing. Add to that ethically sourced raw cacao from Bali, Ecuador, and Peru and a dose of heart healthy low glycemic sweeteners, nutrient dense fruits, nuts, and medicinal herbs sourced from the Amazon to the Himalayas. The result is chocolate that is good for you, body and soul.
