NEW! Tres Hombres Brewing Cocoa
We didn't love any of the brewing cocoa on the market so we have come up with our signature blend of three beans roasted in a special way that brings out all the chocolate flavor but without the bitterness.
It's easy to make in just 8 oz of water.
- Some of our customers add a touch of agave syrup and others drink it straight.
- Add it to your coffee.
- Blend it with your favorite tea.
- Use milk instead of water for the kids.
- Use your own tea bags or a French Press
The mix is Non-GMO, Fair Trade and Organic certified. It's just you and the natural bean flavors.
Dark Chocolate

Mexican Hot Chocolate
Our newest seasonal bar celebrates the flavors of San Antonio with warm cinnamon and a cayenne kick!
Our Story
Casa Chocolates started in our home kitchen in 2014 out of a love for fine chocolate. As we perfected and advanced our process in the pursuit of exciting new flavors, we’ve grown from that kitchen to our new store and factory. We’re excited to be able to welcome you into our shop and share our love of chocolate with you!
We’re a family-run business that’s proud to be part of the San Antonio culinary community.
Buying and Selecting our Beans
We carefully select origin-sourced beans from Vietnam, Uganda, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic and other regions from small farmers who practice organic growing principles.
We are a member of the Fine Chocolate Industry Association and believe in supporting organic and non-GMO farmers and importers .
It’s important to us that we support the small farmers of these regions and only purchase Fair Trade beans.
Turning Cacao into Chocolate
We roast all our beans in-house to bring out the specific flavors that make these beans unique. Once roasted, the process is simple:
1. The roasted beans are cracked to expose the inner cacao nibs, and the shells are removed.
2. The nibs are ground for over 24 to 72 hours, and organic sugar is added to balance the bitterness of the raw chocolate.
3. To ensure a bar that’s shiny and snaps when you break it, the chocolate is melted to a specific temperature in a process called tempering.
4. See? Simple.
