When you own your own business, maternity leave sums up to around 2 weeks 😂😂

Good thing I love my job, and baby Skye is a relatively good napper (knock on wood, I can’t believe I said that out loud!), so even when I wasn’t making chocolates, I was still thinking about chocolates and planning this Halloween collection!

Like every year, due to how intricate and labor intensive these designs are, stock is limited, so I highly recommend ordering early

🚨 Breaking news 🚨

I’ve officially launched my sweetest product yet… and her name is Skye. 🍫💗

After a very long R&D cycle (9 months, to be exact), she finally went to market last week.

Unlike ChocAllure chocolates, though, there were:

- No instructions

- Very loud sound effects at all hours 🤯

- And definitely no refunds 😉

Still, early customer feedback (from mom, dad, and grandparents) is 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

And don’t worry - while I settle into this new “co-founder” role, ChocAllure chocolates are still being crafted with love (and a touch of sleep deprivation).

Our limited-edition Fruit & Flowers Chocolate Jewels™ Collection is here for Mother’s Day, featuring 12 handcrafted jewels in dreamy floral and fruit flavors:

🌹 Ispahan- lychee gelee, raspberry-rose ganache

🌺 Orange Hibiscus- hibiscus coulis, dark chocolate and orange ganache

🍇 Cassis Almond Frangipane Tart- cassis gelee, almond ganache, crunchy almond praline crust

🌱 Kalamansi Cashew- kalamansi gelee, cashew and blonde chocolate ganache

🍋 Lemon Meringue Pie- lemon marshmallow, lemon ganache, graham cracker crust

🍵 Earl Grey Bergamot- bergamot gelee, dark chocolate and earl grey ganache

🥭 Mango Passion Fruit Caramel

🍓 Strawberry Cheesecake- strawberry gelee, strained yogurt ganache, graham cracker crust

🍏 Apple Tart- reduced apple cider caramel, cookie butter crust

Introducing Our Easter Collection! 🐰🍫

*Easter Ice Cream Chocolate Jewels™ Collection:*

🍓 Popping Strawberry Shortcake – Strawberry gelée, strawberry marshmallow, and buttery shortbread crust with playful popping candy

Adorable hand-painted chicks filled with vanilla bean marshmallow and silky peanut praliné ganache—a nostalgic nod to the classic fluffernutter.

Thanks so much to .branding for these gorgeous pictures!!

When I started ChocAllure, I thought I'd become the ultimate Valentine’s Day romantic. After all, I’m literally surrounded by hearts, kisses, and everything pink or red.

By the time February 14th rolls around, I’ve crafted, filled, and polished more chocolate hearts than Cupid himself could handle. So instead of candlelit dinners, I’m perfectly content to spend the evening doing absolutely NOTHING.

And you know who’s delighted about this? My husband. No dinner reservations, no last-minute flower runs — he’s officially the most low-maintenance Valentine on the planet. One year he actually said, "Are you sure I don't need to do anything? Because this is amazing." 😂

To all the chocolatiers, florists, and romantics who work overtime spreading love this season — I see you, and I hope you treat yourself on the big day too!

🌍 Ever wondered how we chocolatiers are handling skyrocketing cocoa costs? 🍫

With cacao prices climbing to unprecedented levels this year, the impact on the industry has been substantial. I’ve already seen a 25% increase in the cost of chocolate, with another 47% (😭😭😭) hike looming in September.

As a Valrhona Cercle V chef, I’m committed to using only the finest, ethically sourced chocolate, but these price surges are affecting us all.

In a recent interview to Boston 25 News , I shared some insights on how chocolatiers like myself are navigating these challenges: https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/more-luxury-item-extreme-weather-devastating-cocoa-crop-increasing-chocolate-prices/EZZCZPCXBBEOZEXTBKUNID26AE/

My strategy? Preordering our entire chocolate supply for the next 6 months in advance. By forecasting my chocolate needs and securing a bulk order, I’m hoping to weather this storm without drastically raising prices.

Here’s to finding innovative ways to keep the chocolate flowing, no matter the challenges! 🍫✨

* And in case you were wondering, here is what 1 ton of chocolate looks like, vs what my chocolate orders looked like when I first started out 😂

I'm thrilled to share this feature from the Boston Globe of my store opening in 87 central st in Wellesley- it is such a huge milestone for me!

https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/04/09/lifestyle/chocallure-now-has-a-storefront-in-wellesley/
To provide some context, back in 2020, I launched ChocAllure, an online chocolate boutique. Rather than simply being another chocolate shop, I aimed to blend my expertise in French patisserie with chocolate making, to create miniature desserts encased in chocolate, with flavors like creme brulee, dark chocolate mousse and more.

For years, having a physical storefront has been a dream, but commercial real estate is daunting with its five-year leases and considerable expenses. Then, towards the close of 2023, an opportunity arose to partner with two fellow business owners to secure a shared storefront in Wellesley—and I seized it eagerly!

The store offers exclusive products not available on the website due to shipping limitations, such as "caramallow cupcakes" and creme brulee truffles. It's also a space where I can explore exciting new creations. I'd be delighted if you could drop by; this Wednesday, I'll be unveiling the Mother's Day wine-infused collection alongside caramel-dark chocolate tart hearts.
