Baianí Chocolates was founded by Tuta and Juliana Aquino, both from traditional families that have been cultivating cacao in southern Bahia since the late 19th century.

Today, under Tuta’s leadership, Baianí Bean to Bar delivers the same concept and quality that made the brand one of the most awarded in Brazil. By selecting exceptional beans from unique, award-winning origins, where sensory diversity brings a vast palette of Brazilian flavors to life, the brand adds recipes to Baianí’s award-winning chocolate bars.
