Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie

#ICYMI our UM Worldwide #Singapore team recently celebrated our annual #UMImpactDay by spreading joy and sweetness with clients from MINDS, one of Singapore’s largest organizations serving persons with intellectual disability and their families. This marks the second year our team has collaborated with MINDS and the heartwarming event was made possible with media partner GumGum and venue partner Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie. We are honored to support MINDS and its mission to create a more inclusive world for all. Don't miss the MINDS Film Festival (MFF) 2024 happening this month, jointly presented by MINDS and the Singapore Film Society. MFF 2024 aims to raise greater awareness and understanding of intellectual disability, encourage the community to play a more active role in supporting PWIDs, and advocate for greater social inclusion.

Scores of contenders accepted the challenge – were you one of them? Mission: Electric launched with an exhilarating start last Friday. Participants explored Singapore in a few cars from the extensive Mercedes-Benz all-electric fleet. Following an action-packed itinerary, they drove to curated destinations such as Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie and Gardenasia, where they engaged in exciting team challenges. Check out these images from last weekend. Learn more about Mission: Electric and discover our all-electric model range at mb4.me/Mission-Electric. #MercedesBenzSG

Three exhilarating weekends of exploring Singapore in the Mercedes-Benz all-electric fleet – catch a glimpse of the Mission: Electric action in this recap video. Our challengers first arrived at Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie, where they dived into the world of sustainable chocolate with a bean-to-bar tasting session. Next up was Gardenasia. A remote-controlled car race put their competitive spirit to the test, while a farm-to-table meal rejuvenated their senses.  Back at the Mercedes-Benz Center, they snapped photos and received a coaster made from recycled bottle caps, created in collaboration with Plastify.

Had the pleasure of speaking on a panel of amazing people recently at Bynd Artisan’s reBynd Conscious Conversations at Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie. The topic was on ‘How to Live Well in the Age of Distractions’, and there were thoughtful perspectives from Jacqueline Poh Jenny Lie James Quan moderated by Yvonne Chan 曾依雯. A common theme that was present was for us to have empathy for ourselves, and run our own race and not someone else’s. Afterall, you are uniquely you, and however best we can engage with the world with our talents, the world is ultimately better for it. Thank you Wei Chan for your elegance in making such a beautiful experience for everyone of us, that’s clearly your super power :) #lifedesign #designingyourlifeinstitute

Last month, we hosted a private test drive experience for some of Singapore's top creators with the #Volkswagen ID.4, ID.4 GTX, and #Škoda Enyaq. Set against the backdrop of Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie in Dempsey, our guests, spanning diverse backgrounds, not only explored our electric vehicles but also delved into the captivating stories of Volkswagen and Škoda. The day also featured a delightful chocolate-making session, using responsibly-sourced ingredients, reflecting our commitment to sustainable innovation. 🚗🍃 #VW #VWID4 #ŠkodaEnyaq #electricvehicles #sustainability #PorscheHolding

🍫 The finest chocolates are traditionally imagined to come from Europe —France, Switzerland, Belgium. But why not from Asia? This intriguing question was posed to us by the passionate entrepreneur behind Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie in Singapore, Jerome Penafort. After tasting a healthy amount of their unique specialty chocolates (my favorite was the black pepper chocolate 🤯 ), I'm a believer in his POV. Their success suggests many others are too. Our USC Marshall School of Business students had the privilege of spending time at Mr. Bucket, learning about the unique flavors of single-origin #cacao from Asia, their bean-to-bar direct trade approach, and the value of premium brand #collabs for a local business. Many thanks to Yanaprasanth Rajanthiran for helping make this happen and to chef Ashwathy Kumar for the amazing chocolate insights! #MarshallLInC #USCMarshallGlobalPrograms #USCMarshall #BusinessEducation #Entrepreneurship #AsianChocolates #SingleOriginCacao #MrBucketChocolaterie #ExperientialLearning #Innovation
