Guinness Record Holder for largest chocolate bar transforms cacao industry with sustainable innovations and delicious cacao water
Sponsored by Blue Stripes
Move over coconut water! Blue Stripes Cacao Water is quickly becoming the must-have beverage for health-conscious consumers seeking refreshing, superfruit hydration with natural electrolytes.
With its fresh, tart, and slightly sweet flavor and remarkable health benefits, this delicious and unique drink can elevate your wellness routine.
But it's not just the taste and health benefits that make Blue Stripes cacao water exceptional - it's also their commitment to sustainability.
Rather than focusing solely on the cacao bean, the company uses the entire cacao plant, from the fruit pulp to the shell across all of their product lines.
The brand recently made headlines partnering with internet personality and celebrity chef, Nick DiGiovanni, and breaking the Guinness World Record for the largest chocolate bar ever made.
Measuring a whopping 4,477 square feet (88 feet x 50 feet), the record-breaking bar took 12 hours to assemble.
The bar surpassed the previous record of 4,125 square feet set in the Netherlands in 2020.

This project brings awareness to the mission of Blue Stripes - using whole cacao to combat challenges faced by cacao farmers worldwide and creates a conversation on the potential of utilizing the entire cacao fruit and shell.
Traditionally in chocolate production, 75% of the cacao pod is discarded, with only the beans being processed.
Blue Stripes, however, embraces a circular approach by using the entire cacao fruit, reducing waste and allowing their partner farmers to earn 3x more from their crops.
Using the cacao pulp, seeds, and shell means every product - from cacao water to cacao-based snacks like granola and chocolate bars - contains valuable vitamins, minerals, and biotin.
Products are sold online and at Whole Foods Market, Sprouts, and The Fresh Market across the U.S.
