Our Chocolate
Rigo works with professional couverture made in France, using traceable cocoa sourced from West Africa. From there, he creates every Mabero flavour himself in Amsterdam, combining the chocolate with carefully selected nuts, fruits, spices and other ingredients, in small batches.
Some stories meet for a reason.
Our chocolate begins with West African cacao. Rigo’s own story begins there too. Different journeys, connected in Amsterdam and brought together in Mabero.
Mabero is where it all comes together.
The name MABERO comes from our children: Max, Beau and Rosie.
Family has always been at the heart of it.
And so has Teranga: the West African idea of hospitality, generosity and making people feel welcome.
You can taste some of that story in Rigo’s chocolate too. In flavours and ingredients that remind him of home. In combinations influenced by the food, spices and traditions he grew up with, including the way his mother used ingredients in her own cooking.
Some flavours begin with a memory.
Others with curiosity.
Rigo brings both together and makes them his own.
West African roots. Amsterdam life. Family. Chocolate.
That’s Mabero.
