The industrialization of food systems together with the need for product regulation and minimization of customs barriers for food products becomes essential to guarantee their quality and, when combined with nutrition labeling, results in a measure of health education, aiming to generate greater consumer autonomy and guaranteeing their right to information with the perspective of preserving individual and collective health. Given the economic and social importance of cocoa in the state of Pará and the need to strengthen enterprises that value the Amazon, this study aimed to establish mandatory nutritional labeling of ''Bean to bar’' chocolate bars with different cocoa contents from an artisan chocolate factory located in the municipality of Ananindeua - PA. Three different batches of chocolates with different cocoa contents (50%, 60%, 70% and 80%) were analyzed in triplicate, and the moisture, ash, crude protein, total lipids, carbohydrates and sodium contents of the four bars were verified. Based on the analysis carried out and rules established by the food legislation, it was possible to establish mandatory nutritional labeling of products, including nutritional table, labeling words, ingredients list, batch identification, health claims and frontal labeling.
