Rawmio’s core raw chocolate starts with a simple base of single-origin cacao, cacao butter, and coconut sugar. Individual products may also include nuts, seeds, coconut milk, vanilla, fruit, mushrooms, or other superfood ingredients. Many ingredients are certified organic.

Rawmio states that its manufacturing facility is strictly free of gluten, dairy, corn, soy, and GMOs. The main allergen concern is tree nuts, which are widely processed in the facility.

Rawmio says it sources single-origin, direct-imported organic cacao from small-farm cooperatives in Peru, and its FAQ states that the cacao is USDA Organic and Rainforest Alliance certified. The company also says it works directly with fairly traded cacao suppliers serving native communities in Peru.

Rawmio states that its products are 100% made in the USA, right outside Chicago. The company operates its own manufacturing facility in Northbrook, Illinois, rather than relying on a co-packer.

No. Rawmio says its chocolate spreads and butters are shelf-stable even after opening and have a 12-month shelf life from the date of manufacture. Each jar carries a best-before date.

Rawmio uses a low-temperature stone-grinding process that takes about 24 hours, with temperatures kept below 100°F. The company starts with whole cacao nibs rather than cocoa powder and avoids refined sugar, dairy, and artificial additives in its core chocolate products.
