Micro-Batch Bean-to-Bar Chocolate

As a bean-to-bar chocolate maker, Conch: Chocolate Experience takes cocoa beans and turns them into chocolate. From the roasting of the beans, through the conching and refining process, and to the tempering and molding of the final product, bean-to-bar chocolate making is a multi-day process in which much thought, passion, and care is put into each chocolate.

But, it is not just the chocolate that is made from scratch.

Whether it is caramel, ganache, or even candy cane, every confection is made in-house at Conch: Chocolate Experience. The focus is always on the quality of the confection from the chocolate to the filling or topping.

Everything made at Conch: Chocolate Experience is handmade, from scratch.

Order FAQs

Who should I contact with questions regarding ordering?

Please email hello@conchchocolate.com with questions related to orders.

My order was shipped with ice packs. Does this mean I should freeze or refrigerate my chocolate?

All chocolate shipping orders are shipped with ice packs to ensure any temperature fluctuations during the journey do not affect the chocolate. Chocolate is best at room temperature, as refrigerated chocolate is prone to the temperature and humidity changes causing sugar bloom or seizing.
