    Cocoa Crunch: Bean Surplus Slashed, Prices Poised to Pop

    This is your Daily Cocoa Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hey friends, welcome back to Daily Cocoa Price Tracker with me, Vanessa Clark. Today, were diving into the latest on cocoa prices, market volatility, and what it all means for your chocolate cravings and investments.

    Right now, as of this evening, cocoa futures on the Intercontinental Exchange in New York are trading around 5850 to 6050 dollars per metric tonne. Trading Economics reports it closed at 5859 dollars per tonne, down a bit today but up nearly 15 percent over the past month after surging 17 percent recently according to MarketMinute. Thats still way off the crazy 12000 dollar peaks from early 2024, but it shows the cocoa crisis is hanging on tight.

    The big story is shrinking surplus forecasts fueling all this ups and downs. Citigroup just slashed their 2025-2026 global surplus estimate to 79000 metric tonnes from 134000 back in September. Rabobank cut theirs to 250000 tonnes on December 10th, blaming ongoing issues in West African production like weather woes and structural problems in Ivory Coast and Ghana. The International Cocoa Organization pegs the 2024-2025 surplus at only 49000 tonnes, a huge drop from earlier hopes. Plus, ICE stocks in US ports hit a nine-month low, tightening things up even more.

    Looking ahead, get ready for a January effect. Cocoa joins the Bloomberg Commodity Index next year, potentially bringing two billion dollars in passive buying that could push prices toward 7000 dollars. Favorable weather in West Africa might boost yields, but flood risks and the Harmattan winds could spark more swings. Companies are eyeing cocoa alternatives and more processing in Africa to cut raw bean exports.

    Her takeaway for you: If youre a chocolate lover, stock up on favorites now before prices hit your wallet harder. Investors, watch those surplus updates and index news closely, this markets primed for action. Diversify and stay informed to ride the volatility.

  • Cocoa Swings: Volatility, Reformulations, and Your Chocolate Fix

    Cocoa Swings: Volatility, Reformulations, and Your Chocolate Fix
    2025/12/18

    This is your Daily Cocoa Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hello everyone, welcome to another episode of Daily Cocoa Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark. Im your host Vanessa Clark, and today were diving into the latest on cocoa prices, market volatility, and what it all means for your chocolate cravings. Grab your favorite bar and lets chat.

    First up, the big news youve been waiting for: todays cocoa trading price. According to CocoaRadar, cocoa is at 5899 dollars and 68 cents per metric ton as of Thursday, down 78 dollars and 32 cents, or 1.31 percent, from yesterdays close of 5978 dollars per ton. Trading Economics reports it slightly lower at around 5923 dollars per ton, with a 0.92 percent drop. Prices have been sliding a bit today on expectations of stronger supplies from West Africa, but do not get too comfy, because this market loves to swing.

    Over the past month, cocoa prices are up nearly 20 percent despite being about 50 percent off last years crazy highs above 12000 dollars per ton. Why the ups and downs? Surplus forecasts for the 2025-26 season keep shrinking. Citigroup just cut theirs to 79 thousand metric tons from 134 thousand, and Rabobank dropped to 250 thousand from 328 thousand. ICE-monitored stocks in US ports hit a nine-month low, and weather in Ghana and Côte dIvoire could still shake things up. Strong arrivals from Côte dIvoire and Ecuador are helping, plus the EU delayed its deforestation rules, giving companies a breather.

    On the chocolate side, demand stays tough. Brands like Nestlé and Pladis are reformulating bars to cut cocoa content, even calling them chocolate flavor now. Big players like Barry Callebaut are eyeing splits to handle volatility. But hey, farmers in Ivory Coast say next years harvest looks promising with good rains.

    Actionable tip for you: If youre stocking up on chocolate, watch for deals now, but think long-term, sustainable brands, as one in three folks pay extra for verified cocoa. Prices might ease into next year, but volatility is the new normal, so diversify your treats, maybe mix in some dark chocolate for those anti-aging perks from theobromine.

    Thanks for joining me today on Daily Cocoa Price Tracker. If you loved this, subscribe, share with your cocoa-loving friends, and tune in next time for more updates. Stay sweet, everyone.

    Cocoa Crunch: Tighter Surpluses, Premium Picks, & Sweet Futures

    This is your Daily Cocoa Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hey friends, welcome back to Daily Cocoa Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark. Im your host Vanessa, and today were diving into the latest on cocoa prices, market buzz, and what it all means for you whether youre a chocolate lover, trader, or just curious about this sweet commodity.

    First up, the current trading price. As of today, March 2026 cocoa futures are sitting at around 5978 dollars per tonne on ICE, down a touch from yesterday but still holding strong above 5900 after some early gains. US cocoa closed the day at 6009 dollars, per Investing.com data, with prices dipping on news of good rains in West Africa boosting yields. Barchart confirms that slight pullback of 20 points, but were watching closely as Ivory Coast farmers report blooming trees and solid pod development ahead of the main harvest.

    Big news driving the chatter: Citigroup just slashed its 202526 global cocoa surplus forecast to 79000 metric tons from 134000 back in September, and Rabobank trimmed theirs to 250000 tons from 328000 last month. Trading Economics highlights how this, plus US port inventories hitting a nine-month low of 1.65 million bags, is propping up prices despite the weather boost. Farmers in Ivory Coast say the 202526 outlook looks positive, which could mean steadier supply down the line.

    On the broader market, the global cocoa beans market is valued at about 15474 million dollars in 2025, projected to grow to nearly 18900 million by 2034 at a 2.25 percent compound annual growth rate, according to Market Growth Reports. Demand from chocolate and confectionery is huge, with Europe and North America leading processing, and Asia-Pacific ramping up fast, especially in China and India. Trends point to premium traceable beans and organic options booming, like organic cocoa grindings growing at 7.4 percent through 2030 per HTF Market Intelligence.

    Actionable takeaway for you: If youre buying chocolate or investing, eye those premium and sustainable brands they often hold value better amid volatility. Weather could ease supply worries, but tighter surpluses might keep prices elevated, so stock up on favorites now or consider diversified trades.

    Thats your daily cocoa update, friends. Thanks for tuning in, be sure to subscribe and catch us next time for more on cocoa prices, futures, and market trends. Talk soon!
