Our commitments

We have chosen to remove palm oil from all our pastry preparations, with a range made with shea butter and pure cocoa butter.

To protect nature and say no to intensive farming and deforestation; to protect the habitat of monkeys, because their home is the forest, and today 70% of the tropical forest in Indonesia has disappeared to make way for palm oil plantations.

And we support the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation (BOS).

Our products are made according to traditional
recipes on our premises in Normandy by
experienced pastry chocolatiers.

Our products are developed with respect for
health: GMO-free,
hydrogenated fats-free, azoic colorants-free, with
healthy unmodified raw materials, in
favoring French and European origins.
We are also committed to a
Clean Label approach towards zero additives.

There can be no good chocolate without equity, both human and environmental. That's why we'll soon be making our own chocolate from beans imported directly from the producer.

We want to guarantee the origin of our raw materials to build a fairer economic model, and enable producers to make a decent living from their work.

Sourcing is underway, the adventure is open, and while we wait to link up with a plantation in Africa or Asia, all our products will be made with chocolate from Italy and Spain.

“It will never be too late to try to do good as long as there is a tree, a beast or a man on Earth”.

unipâtis supports the borneo orangutan survival foundation

enjoy, you save!

To support the foundation, we’ve created a range of TartiLove spreads from which we donate 20 cents for every product sold.

This palm-oil, preservative and oil-free spread is available in 3 variations: almond-hazelnut, almond and hazelnut crisp and sugar-free almond. Made with coconut milk, it is suitable for vegan diets.

Come and help us support this great project!

orangutan survival

Since 1991, the Borneo Orangutan Foundation has been running the world’s largest primate conservation project to save, care for and release orangutans on protected islands and forests.

This association works in the field and in coordination with the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry and local communities.

Since the foundation was set up, almost 500 orangutans have been rescued and returned to the wild, and over 400,000 hectares of tropical forest are under their care. We invite you to discover all BOS actions directly on their website.

orangutans

Orangutan means “man of the forest” in Malay, and in fact they share 97% of their DNA with us humans.

He’s the only great ape to spend his entire life in the trees, moving from branch to branch to feed and build his nest. And he changes his nest every night, taking care to prepare a cosy mattress of leaves to protect his bare buttocks, for he is the only monkey without calluses – his buttocks are his Achilles heel.

It is 100% vegetarian and feeds exclusively on fruit and bark, making it the largest tropical fruit eater on the planet. The Utan orang is threatened with total extinction within 10 years due to deforestation and poaching.
