Malaysian origin chocolates are about as common as Cambodian (https://damecacao.com/chocolate-on-the-road-cambodia/) or Hawaiian (https://damecacao.com/chocolate-on-the-road-hawaii/) chocolates. That is, they exist— but you can’t really find them unless you go to the source. But it wasn’t always this way. Malaysia used to be one of the world’s top ten cocoa producers, and remains a top processor of cocoa. So what’s happened over the last thirty years? The flux throughout Southeast Asia tells only part of the story. In this episode, we talk to five people involved in every stage of Malaysian chocolate making, from tree to bar. We get into the challenges they’ve taken on, their hopes for the future, and what’s WhatsApp got to do with it all.
