About Us
Welcome to Coco Chocolate
Testimonial:
“You don’t have to travel to Paris to find a beautifully presented chocolate salon with the freshest, loveliest chocolates. No, looking like it has been picked up from Paris, and dropped down in Kirribilli is Coco Chocolate. Everything in this shop is top notch from the hand printed curtain in the window to the hand made chocolate creams, shards of chocolate embedded with dried raspberries and hot chocolate. At Easter, the eggs are exceptional, but soon disappear, so get in early. The owner is an exceptional artisan. Her chocolate is so refined, no filler here, just pure chocolate. She is a treasure and this shop is her jewel box. Previously, she has been named one of Britain’s top chocolate makers and I believe she is Australia’s top chocolate maker. There is no higher praise.”
Coco Chocolate produces chocolate at their harbour side Sydney studio at Middle Head, which opens to the public Friday to Sunday by appointment as The Sydney Chocolate School.
The Sydney Chocolate School celebrated its 30,000th chocolate school participant and even hosted Adele for a private chocolate party when on tour!
Coco uses organic chocolate couverture for production of their award winning chocolates; including GOLD at The Great Taste Awards in London.
All cacao couverture sourced for tempering at Coco Chocolate is ethical and producers are members of SEDEX, ensuring ethical and responsible practices in labour standards (including employment conditions, profitable income for farmers, supporting community development projects and no child labour), health and safety, the environment and business ethics. As a result all can enjoy Coco Chocolate – creating value for all through the supply chain with transparency, traceability, productivity and quality
Coco Chocolate is made by our artisan chocolatiers in Australia using the finest ingredients. Chocolate is traditionally hand tempered on marble. The range of award winning chocolates are created with the finest fruits, nuts, liqueurs and Herbies spices & peppers.
Coco Chocolate couverture cacao masses range for all palettes, including blends with 37% cacao, 55% cacao, 68% cacao, 74% cacao, 80% cacao, 90% cacao and 99% cacao mass (which has no sugar or any alternative sweetener at all) . We are advocates of organic farming, ethically traded chocolate and non GM ingredients
Rebecca grew up in Sydney before travelling to Europe to train as a chocolatier, including at the prestigious school Valrhona in France. Rebecca opened her first chocolate studio and retail store in the UK to be close to Europe to continue to be inspired by European masters. After ten years and creating a range of chocolates for the prestigious Harvey Nichols in London, the desire to come home was too strong and Rebecca now is the creative director for the Coco Studio and The Sydney Chocolate School, developing all of the Coco Chocolate recipes and showcasing at the Coco flagship store in Kirribilli.
The beautiful store in Kirribilli offers you a French inspired environment to relax and enjoy the stunning chocolates. Allow our trained staff to explain the chocolates from bean to bar and serve twelve varieties of hand flaked drinking chocolates and Campos coffee to enjoy in-house.
We are proud to be sold throughout David Jones stores in Australia, The Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney for Coco Art Series, Accoutrement Mosman, Harris Farm nationwide and a series of independent stores specialising in fine food or artisan gifts.
