Carol Morse of Acalli Chocolate in New Orleans, Louisiana discovered craft chocolate due to her love of people and interest in anthropology, as well as her husband's work in archeology that introduced her to Latin and South American cacao producers. She currently sources from Norandino (the same cooperative that Well Tempered & Marañón Chocolate collaborated on for a GoFundMe campaign to send relief efforts to Peru). In her first year in business, her El Platanal bar received a 2015 Good Food Award.

In this, the first minisode interview of the Well Tempered Chocolate Podcast, Carol & Lauren talk about mini-bars -- smaller chocolate bars (about 1/3 to 1/2 the size of standard large bars), that are becoming a more popular way to introduce consumers to.craft chocolate, and that are popping up in many coffee and retail shops around the country.
Update: Acalli Chocolate closed their doors in winter of 2021.
