From the land

Where the cacao begins

San Plácido, in the province of Manabí, is where Oro Negro Chocolate is rooted — a landscape of waterfalls and Ecuadorian cacao.

To the chocolate

Landscape, folded into a bar

The Oro Negro 2.0 packaging carries that landscape forward: ribbons of water and cacao-orange wrapped around dark Ecuadorian chocolate.

The origin

Rooted in San Plácido, Manabí

A Chocolate Story from the Heart of Ecuador.

Oro Negro Chocolate comes from San Plácido, in the province of Manabí, Ecuador. According to the brand's official website, its chocolate is made with Ecuadorian fine-flavor cacao and shaped by a close relationship with local producers.

The brand describes its production as handcrafted, drawing on traditional chocolate-making techniques — finished chocolate that carries the character of Ecuadorian cacao from the land to the bar.

That link between landscape and cacao also shapes the new Oro Negro 2.0 identity: flowing shapes inspired by the waterfalls of San Plácido, in the blues and turquoises of water and the oranges and ochres of the cacao pod.

“El arte del cacao en cada bocado.”

The art of cacao in every bite.

Oro Negro 2.0

Three expressions, one origin

The new packaging translates the landscape of San Plácido into form, color and identity.

Form and movement

The vertical drop of the San Plácido waterfalls inspires a central ribbon that opens into curves, symbolizing the flow of water.

Color and contrast

Blues and turquoises represent water; oranges and ochres highlight the cacao. A darker variant uses cacao and jade tones for a more understated look.

Identity and origin

Abstract cacao pods connect the product to its landscape, while geometric details inspired by pre-Columbian art add a subtle accent.
