The story of Ritual Chocolate begins in a tiny 400-square-foot studio turned test kitchen in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Anna Seears and Robert Stout were driven by a dream to change an industry that was broken. It was 2008 and they felt high quality chocolate was hard to come by, with little transparency in production and sourcing. They named their company Ritual, paying homage to traditions and ceremonies of the Mayans, Aztecs and Olmecs. The company’s mission has always been to have an impact, believing everyone deserves to have great chocolate. Ritual is now based outside of Park City, Utah, and their chocolate is available throughout the country.
