COCOAPOD by 80Noir®
The future of chocolate is getting closer.

We’ve been keeping something behind the lab door…

For quite some time, we’ve been asking a question.

What if the ritual of real 80Noir Ultra® chocolate could be reimagined for something extraordinarily convenient?

Not coffee pretending to be chocolate.

Not a sugary instant drink.

Real chocolate. Reimagined for the pod.

CocoaPod by 80Noir® is being developed for Nespresso® Original-compatible machines, bringing together real cacao, convenience and the ritual of chocolate in an entirely new way.

We’re still developing.
Still testing.
Still learning.

And that’s exactly why we’re opening the door now.

The CocoaPod® waitlist is officially open.

Those who join won’t simply hear when CocoaPod launches.

We’ll be taking you behind the scenes as we develop it, the chocolate, the engineering, the testing, the mistakes, the breakthroughs and our work exploring what the future of the pod itself could look like.

The good. The bad. The chocolate.

Come behind the lab door.

Who says hot chocolate is just for women?!

I know so many men who enjoy a lovely cuppa hot chocolate so let’s share the love of chocolate and get 2 bags so you don’t have to share!

The data shows that most men prefer the 72% but please tell me otherwise - happy to be updated 😬🍫

And the second piece of news I have is that with the work we are doing on the formulation for the hot chocolate in pod format we are now able to celebrate that the work for a compostable pod is ALSO underway… yes we will have an aluminium pod but in parallel we are working together a compostable no waste pod as well so we can keep our sustainability goals on track.

It’s super exciting to see what is out there and I’m am like a kid in a sweet shop when we discuss the properties we are looking at, some might surprise you!

But for now we are a go and when we have narrowed it down a little bit more I will share more for you, in the meantime time if you have any hints or tips you would like to share in the sustainability side I’d love to hear them!

Here’s to progress and bringing about a positive delicious change to the meaning of hot chocolate

80Noir Ultra is now at Beadlam Grange Farmshop
On one of the hottest days of the year.

Well... We’ve just listed hot chocolate in a new farm shop on one of the hottest days of the year. ☀️🍫

Excellent timing, Carole. 😂
But actually...
Perhaps it is.
I’m so happy to say that you can now find 80Noir_Ultra at Beadlam Grange Farm Shop, Helmsley.
And we’ve brought options...

🍫 50% - smooth, creamy and glorious as cold chocolate milk
🍫 72% - my summer all-rounder. Over ice, blended or gloriously hot
🍫 87.5% - dark, rich and ridiculous poured over vanilla ice cream
🍫 100% - pure cacao for those who like their chocolate seriously chocolatey

Because apparently chocolate is supposed to disappear when the sun comes out.
We’re ignoring that rule.
Make chocolate milk.
Pour it over ice.
Blend it.
Make a chocolate affogato.
Freeze it.
Take it home and invent something I haven’t thought of yet.

Chocolate doesn’t have a season. Your ritual does.

If you’re in Helmsley or passing through, pop into Beadlam Grange, pick up a bag and please tag me in what you make.

I want to see your summer chocolate rituals. ☀️🍫
