Maurice grew up visiting his local chocolate factory. So when he and wife Helen saw the opportunity to take over a 30 year old confectionary company, he couldn’t say no. Now, he and Helen delight in recreating and sharing the sensory delights of chocolate making with visitors to the Coal River Valley in Tasmania.
They make a range of confectionary, and have recently introduced their two-ingredient bean to bar chocolate. They like to showcase cocoa beans from small farmers around the world, with a focus on finding sustainable and ethical cocoa products. And after COVID, they relocated from Hobart to Richmond, where they are building a unique chocolate experience space at Every Man and His Dog Vineyard. This exciting new chapters offers an even more immersive experience – pairing chocolate and wine.
