Cargill will expand production at specialty cocoa liquor plants in France and Germany to meet rising demand for single origin and premium chocolate.

“Our special origin liquors, for example the Fine Flavor range and Dominican Republic organic liquor are experiencing growing demand,”​ said Cargill Cocoa & Chocolate’s managing director of cocoa Philippe Huet.
