Target Markets

Craft Chocolate Connoisseurs is a segment in the chocolate industry where chocolate is made from bean-to-bar, from start-to-finish. Our customer's value quality, sustainably sourced, & traceable ingredients.

Most chocolates bars are made from cheap, mass-produced, untraceable cocoa liquor (melted chocolate wafers, not made bean-to-bar). At DownLow Chocolate, our cacao beans are single-origin and sustainably-sourced. Then the beans are roasted, cracked, winnowed, ground, refined, tempered, molded, and packaged into small batches of chocolate bars.

Keto Low-carb Chocolate Consumers is a niche segment within the chocolate industry that is focused on producing chocolate for people following a ketogenic or low-carb diet by using an alternative sugar-free sweetener.

Most low-carb chocolates use sweeteners like Stevia, Erythritol, Sucralose, which have an aftertaste, cooling-effect, and/or cause digestive issues.

At DownLow Chocolate, we use an Besti by Wholesome Yum, an Allulose & Monk Fruit blend that that tastes as sweet as sugar, but without the negative side effects (no aftertaste or digestive issues). It is non-GMO, zero-calorie, zero-net-carbs, sugar-alcoholf-free, keto, and diabetic-friendly.
