San Diego, C.A.

The line was created by the brand’s Master Chef and Co-Founder, Michael Antonorsi, as an ode to all women: “With Lovely, we wanted to create a product that celebrated ‘you,’ because who you are is enough,” said Antonorsi. “Spreading joy is the intention behind everything we do, and with Lovely we hope to bring a moment of joy to every person who experiences it.” 

Lovely will be available in three varieties, all featuring luscious fruit and a hint of floral in organic, 72 percent Rainforest Alliance Certified dark chocolate: Raspberry Rose – radiant raspberries sugared with rose petals – Blueberry Lavender – juicy blueberries lightly infused with luxurious lavender - Coconut Hibiscus – creamy coconut and a hint of sweet hibiscus.

We are thrilled to partner with Chuao Chocolatier as they launch this new line that celebrates women and inspires them to do just that.”
