I am the mom to 3 incredible daughters. I married my high school sweetheart and 17 years in, we are still going strong!
Yikes.. that ages me, don’t do the math on that!
I’m a dental hygienist by trade but I’ve always been really creative and needed an outlet to express that creativity.
The Jewelled Cocoa Bean began as a passion project of mine in 2021.
After years of creating custom cakes and sweets, I decided to further challenge myself and dive head first into the world of chocolate.
Chocolate requires incredible precision and so many aspects of it are challenging.
From essentially constructing a tiny dessert by layering multiple complimentary flavours into a small cavity, to getting every temperature and humidity level right along the way, fine chocolates are hard to do well!
My goal with each bonbon I make is that the flavours take you on a journey and come alive in your mouth!
That your palate is surprised with the acidity, velvety smoothness, contrasting crunch… I think you get the idea!
Thank you so much for each and every one of you that has supported my small business, and in turn, my family.
You allow me to continue to do what I love!
XO
Andrea
