Cuna de Piedra is a Mexican bean-to-bar brand that unites tradition, art, and terroir through authentic chocolate crafted entirely in Mexico. The name, meaning “Cradle of Stone” symbolically connects the birthplace of cacao with the traditional stone tool metate, used for centuries to grind cocoa beans.

Founded in 2019 by Enrique Pérez and Vicky González, the brand’s mission is to restore cacao to its cultural and geographical roots. Cuna de Piedra works directly with Mexican farmers from the regions of Soconusco, Tabasco, and Oaxaca, ensuring fair compensation and support for sustainable fermentation and processing practices.

Their chocolates are organic, handmade creations that reflect the diversity of Mexico’s cacao-growing regions. The brand stands out for its single-origin dark chocolates as well as its innovative combinations with local ingredients such as mezcal, hibiscus, sea salt, and smoky notes.

Each bar is carefully balanced, preserving the bean’s natural complexity and character. Their chocolates are frequently recognized for their balanced flavor, refined texture, and distinctive sense of origin.

The bars are defined by a persistent, natural taste, with notable depth and a clean finish, making them stand out on the global bean-to-bar scene. At the core of Cuna de Piedra’s philosophy lies respect for the land, the farmers, and tradition - alongside a desire to showcase the contemporary face of Mexican chocolate craftsmanship.
