Our Chocolate Studio
Sweet Lollapalooza is a small, privately owned and operated chocolate and confection studio. The company was founded in 2003 with one goal – to produce a small line of superior, fresh products by hand, using only the very best ingredients.
At Sweet Lollapalooza, in our process to create new products, we make similar decisions that a good chef will make — pairing the right chocolate, from the right region with the right blend of flavours and textures. Our chocolatier and partner, Brett, draws from his 20 years of culinary experience at some of the finest restaurants in several countries to create unique and memorable combinations.
Freshness is at the core of our philosophy. Our rich and silky texture is distinct because we use fresh cream and butter.
Quick chocolate tidbit.
Contrary to popular misconception, eating lots of chocolate does not raise blood cholesterol levels. Chocolate contains stearic acid, which is a neutral fat that does not raise bad cholesterol (LDL). Also, the cocoa butter in chocolate contains oleic acid, a mono-unsaturated fat. This is the same type of fat found in olive oil that may actually raise good cholesterol (HDL).
