The raw ingredient behind chocolate.

COCOA Live price

What is Cocoa

Cocoa is the raw ingredient behind chocolate, grown mostly in a handful of tropical countries. That concentrated supply makes it a distinctive commodity.

Because production is concentrated in a few regions, weather, disease and political events there can have an outsized effect on price. Demand from chocolate makers sets the other side.

Cocoa has seen some of the sharpest moves in the soft commodity world, which rewards careful risk control.
