Today, for Women's History Month, we have the pleasure to share with you one of our favorite brands!

Based in Guadalajara, México; Metiche is a bean to bar project that pursues expressing Mexican cacao through chocolate.

Metiche began as a self exploration project where curiosity for flavors, terroirs and native cacao were the driving force…

As it is well known;
México and cacao have coexisted for centuries.
Chocolate represented the beginning and ending…
Ceremonies and celebration…

Women and cacao have a unique relationship;
Women were the ones who prepared the ceremonial drink.

Merging cacao, history, Mexico, terroir, flavor, and femininity;
Chocolate Metiche makes chocolate,

which is a celebration within itself.

As the world is being dragged into more wars; we find even more reason to honor Women's History Month and the peaceful warriors who continue to spread their love through their crafts made with intention. Today I would like to share the story of Lydia Love, a friend and founder of Pure Love Chocolate

When a health diagnosis forced Lydia off sugar entirely, most people would have mourned their chocolate and moved on. Lydia went into her kitchen and invented her own.

This Florida native brought her sunshine spirit to the Pacific Northwest, and starting in 2010 while living in Olympia, WA she perfected a dark chocolate sweetened purely with stevia — no sugar, no sugar alcohols, no compromise. She began selling her handcrafted treats at local events and on Etsy, where her shop quietly became a haven for anyone navigating low-carb, low-sugar, or restricted diets.

In 2014, she joined forces with business partner Sean Bonsell to officially launch Pure Love Chocolate, and the business has been growing — and melting hearts — ever since. In 2019, Lydia and the business put down new roots in Eugene, Oregon, where Pure Love Chocolate ships nationwide with hundreds of glowing customer reviews and a loyal following among people who thought they'd never get to enjoy chocolate again.

Lydia's mission has always been bigger than a candy bar: she believes that when we take care of our health, we show up better for each other and the world.

Happy International Women's Day (and Month)!

Shout out to Katie! Creatix of Flower Child Fudge — but not the kind you’re used to.

Her fudge is sweetened only with dates (yep, the whole fruit!) By doing so, the chocolate doesn’t cause a rapid blood sugar spike. Choosing only superfood ingredients (cacao, coconut, & dates), our fudge crafted to be as kind to the planet as it is to your taste buds. Wholesome, chocolatey goodness that still feels indulgent.

Each piece is handmade with love and designed to look as beautiful as it tastes, adorned with a pop of dried flowers on top - a little square of art you can eat.

Just as much love (if not more) goes into our packaging. Since she's all about sustainability and standing out, each fudge comes in it’s own outfit (an ever-evolving variety of adorable floral fabric pouches). The pouch is then sealed with a ribbon of colored paper according to the flavor (they hand press all our paper and infuse with wildflower seeds) and secured with a bit of melty golden wax, and the Katie's fingerprint, ensuring quite a literal handmade mark. Fudge to savor, fabric to repurpose, and flower to plant.

A truly one of a kind gift to yourself and the Earth!

And she's just getting started. More specialty treats soon — always made with good-for-you ingredients, and always earth-friendly, right down to the packaging.

Treat yourself (and the planet) to something sweet!

On this day, in honor of Women's History month, we would like to highlight our dear friend Blanca Chávez Pasos. The heart behind Cacao Muse — a Ceremonial Chocolatería born from a visión she received after communing with Ayahuasca for 10 nights in the jungle.

Native to México, Blanca has devoted over 20 years to walking in relationship with cacao as a sacred seed of consciousness. Long before cacao became a global trend, she was living in cacaotales, crafting chocolate directly from the fruit, and studying and interpreting ancient codexes that honor cacao as a bridge between worlds and diving deep into ancestral wisdom from Mesoamerica.

She is a guardian of the heart’s medicine — weaving together the ancestral and the modern, the mystical and the gourmet. Through Cacao Muse, Blanca transforms cacao into an experience: a ritual, a remembrance, a return to the feminine intelligence that listens, feels, and creates life. She is known for her ancestral Metate ceremonias, her vast knowledge of the Toltec, Mayan and Aztec wisdom, the ancestral Tonalpohualli calendar, and her service as a Sacred Chocolate maker.

This Women’s Day, we honor the hearth that keeps the fire alive — the woman behind the medicine.

In honor of Women's History month, today we would like to highlight one brand we have proudly carried for over six years now!

Sarah Ann Lesslie has been making chocolate since 2005. Through a series of serendipitous events, she found herself apprenticing with Kelly Johnson of Sedona Chocolate Superfoods. At that time, she had a history of being diagnosed with Dysmenorrhea, or extremely painful periods. Her desire to treat herself naturally led her to study herbalism.
One day, it struck her to combine herbs and cholate together for cycle support, and it worked! She began sharing it with her friends, and an entire herbal chocolate business built from there. The line has expanded over time to include different functional bars for specific purposes like Aphrodisiac and Meditation to name a couple. Sarah loves to share her passions for herbalism and chocolate with the world through her chocolate line, Chocolita. Now, over twenty years into making chocolate, her passion for the craft remains as strong as it ever was. To see her share her story, go to chocolita.com and watch the Arizona Highways and Fox 10 News features posted on the website.
