Little kids often feel weird about unusual ingredients, but chef Olveras has always liked things that nobody else liked. As a child, and still to this day, when his mother would ask what he wanted for his birthday, he would always say, “pulpos en su tinta,” which is basically a dish of octopus cooked in its own ink. Today, chef Enrique Olvera is renowned, in the culinary world and beyond, for his ability to transform Mexico’s most savory street foods and traditional ingredients into award-winning dishes at his restaurant, Pujol.

Casa Bosques Chocolate is a project by Rafael Prieto, founder and creative director of Savvy Studio, a Mexico City & NYC based design practice. It is founded on the exploration of the history, methods, origins, & culture of chocolate. From tree to bar, Casa Bosques crafts chocolate with the same care as the farmers tending and harvesting each heirloom bean. They source from small ranches throughout Mexico and Latin America, primarily from one single smallholder ranch in the southern region of Pichucalco, Chiapas, Mexico, allowing close involvement every step of the way. Their chocolate begins with just two ingredients: Heirloom cacao beans and organic cane sugar. By using these two ethically sourced ingredients as a canvas, the tones and nuances in each individual blend are generously highlighted.
