It remains state-of-art, but with time proven capability and capacity to produce natural, alkalized and black cocoa powders. Carlyle also has the expertise and ability to custom blend to match your current powder requirements. The entire plant was designed from scratch to be environmentally friendly, efficient in energy consumption, and is computerized to ensure a consistent quality product. The layout aids in ensuring cleanliness and quality. Our facility is located minutes off Interstate 95, ideally located for quickly moving product.
Today, Carlyle Cocoa is a wholly owned subsidiary of GCB Cocoa Singapore. GCB is one of the top cocoa bean grinders in the world, processing over 200,000 metric tons of cocoa beans per year into cocoa butter, cocoa press cake, cocoa powder, and chocolate liquor. Through the combined efforts of Carlyle and GCB, we are able to bring quality products to the market at competitive pricing backed up with exceptional customer service.

This is why clients continue to turn to us for advice and assistance in meeting their cocoa needs. Our goal is to build lasting business relationships with our clients for mutual success.
