The word K’UL is Mayan for “the energy and interconnectivity between all living things.“ This word encapsulates everything we are trying to do. We made bold moves with our new packaging. We’re introducing a simple, yet radical concept for craft chocolate; packaging that protects your chocolate and conveniently reseals to make your world just a little easier. For those that have active lifestyles this innovative packaging allows you to enjoy our chocolate while doing all the activities you enjoy without the hassle of broken pieces in your gear.
K’UL is on the mission to change the world through chocolate by elevating women, protecting children, and fighting slave labor. We have an unwavering commitment to producing ethically sourced, direct-trade, hand-crafted, small-batch bean to bar chocolate that uses only organic and Non-GMO ingredients.
We also made another bold move by featuring the women we work with on the front of our packaging.
AAUW-WA is a charitable, non-profit organization in Washington State which works to change the climate for women and girls. We accomplish this through education, research, advocacy and philanthropy.
