Sjokoladebrygga on Dønna

Visit "the world's smallest chocolate factory" by the sea on Dønna and experience how delicious chocolate can be when made with care and attention to exclusive, organic ingredients. Sjokoladebrygga is perhaps the world's smallest chocolate factory, located facing the ocean on the island of Dønna. The chocolate produced here is inspired by the powerful and pure nature we have here in Helgeland. The chocolate is handcrafted, using pure ingredients that are minimally processed to retain all the good properties of cocoa. It is also lactose-free, gluten-free, and naturally sweetened with raw agave, which has a low glycemic index. So, it's chocolate for most people. But it is powerful in flavor, and chocolatier Heidi has not spared any quality, making it with the world's most exclusive cocoa bean - Criollo! Read More
