In a country known for its rich culinary heritage, chocolate is quietly undergoing a transformation—and SMOOR is leading the charge. With the launch of its Signature Indian Cacao Range, the Bengaluru-based luxury chocolatier is not just introducing a product line—it’s telling a story rooted in Indian soil, flavours, and memories.
For years, chocolate in India has largely leaned on imported cocoa and global flavour profiles. But SMOOR is flipping the narrative.
By sourcing cacao directly from Eluru district, the brand embraces the nuances of Indian-grown beans—bringing forward tasting notes of red fruits, citrus brightness, and a lingering finish that feels both complex and comforting.
This isn’t just chocolate. It’s terroir in every bite.
What sets this range apart is SMOOR’s meticulous bean-to-bar process. Every step—from sourcing and roasting to refining, tempering, and shaping—is done in-house.
The result?
Chocolate that feels authentic, layered, and deeply personal.
Unlike mass-market alternatives, SMOOR uses 100% true couverture chocolate, rich in cocoa butter and completely free from vegetable fats. This ensures a cleaner melt, richer mouthfeel, and a flavour profile that lets Indian cacao shine unapologetically.
The Signature Indian Cacao Range isn’t just about chocolate—it’s about nostalgia.
Each product feels like a bridge between tradition and modern indulgence.
Behind every bar is a network of farmers, chocolatiers, and artisans. Founder & CEO Vimal Sharma puts it simply: great chocolate is built on trust.
This philosophy reflects in every aspect of the brand—from ethical sourcing to refined craftsmanship.
Since its inception in Bengaluru in 2015, SMOOR has grown steadily while staying true to its roots:
honouring craft, respecting ingredients, and creating meaningful flavour experiences.
India’s chocolate scene is evolving—and this launch marks a significant milestone.
In short, SMOOR isn’t just making chocolate—it’s shaping India’s chocolate identity.
The Signature Indian Cacao Range is now available online, with prices starting from INR 250 onwards.
If you’ve ever wondered what India tastes like in chocolate form, this is it.
The SMOOR Signature Indian Cacao Range is not just indulgence—it’s a journey through flavours you’ve grown up with, reimagined through craftsmanship and elegance.
And honestly, once you try it, regular chocolate might start feeling a little… ordinary.
