Cacao Ngon
A story of something
By Sara Graebe
delicious and a farmer named Sam
Once upon a time
In a country
far,
far, far,FAR
AWAY,
in a small province, there
lived Farmer Sam who grew cocoa.
Farmer Sam had a
BRILLIANT idea.
"I’ll start a business so I can share my love for cocoa! And chocolate...hehe."
The province Farmer Sam lives in is Ben Tri, located in southern Vietnam. It is the best environment for growing the finest cocoa beans because the land is just meters above sea level with acres and acres of lush land surrounded by tiny rivers and canals. Farmer Sam named his company... In Vietnamese of course...
Cacao Ngon!
sounds yummy.
In English please...
"cocoa delicious."
What is the
product
you ask?
Farmer Sam loves chocolate, and sweets, and tea time, and chocolate, and well chocolate. So he decided to develop a delightfully chocolate combination of cocoa powder and other delectable flavors into a solid cube that melts in liquid. In a cup of tea for example. Ta-dah! There you have it. A
brilliant idea.
Farmer Sam’s company shortly grew into a booming business with several hundred employees and acres of cocoa bean fields. It made Farmer Sam very happy running his business and wouldn’t trade it for the world. Let’s just say he did not expect his
brilliant idea to flourish
as much as it did.
Here are some farmers busy at drying the cocoa beans.
Where do the beans get turned into wonderful treats?
The beans are dried and packaged then sent to Ho Chi Minh City to a factory that produces the delightful cubes. They are then shipped around Vietnam and Asia. People of all ages from Vietnam and Asia have come to love this treat and every restaurant in Vietnam serve it with their tea. Farmer Sam’s dream is to bring the product to America. He thinks it’s better than anything they have there. Although, Farmer Sam has never been to America he has high hopes.
There are
three tempting flavors of cubes...
Cocoa Coconut
Cocoa Tapioca
Cocoa Orange
They are too good to resist.
These cocoa orange flavored treats melt into your favorite tea, coffee, hot milk, or by themselves for a chocolate sensation in your mouth. Farmer Sam prefers his in his afternoon tea.
"MmmmMmmm!"
Cacao Ngon kept on thriving for years to come.
Farmer Sam and Cacao Ngon lived happily ever after.
