Cacao, Brazil's number one: Brazilian cocoa unbeaten in recognition, with respect to its outstanding quality and also in terms of export quantity. As well Venezuela, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Togo, Ghana, Peru, Mexico and Uganda are among the top 20 producers of fine flavored cocoa beans worldwide.
