Artisan chocolatiers bring passion and creativity to every piece they create. At Micelli Chocolate Molds, we are dedicated to supporting these small-scale producers by providing molds that enhance their craft and help them thrive in a competitive market.

Selecting the right mold is one of the most critical decisions an artisan chocolatier can make. A well-chosen mold not only enhances the quality of the finished product but also streamlines the production process. At Micelli Chocolate Molds, we understand the unique needs of artisan chocolatiers and offer a diverse range of options to suit any production style.

Customization is key in today’s chocolate market. Consumers are drawn to unique products that stand out, whether it’s a hand-crafted truffle or a branded chocolate bar. Micelli Chocolate Molds recognizes this demand and specializes in creating custom molds that cater to the specific needs of artisan and industrial chocolatiers alike.

In a world of fleeting trends and fast flavors, Bissinger’s Chocolatier is a brand rooted in something far richer—legacy. But legacy doesn’t mean stagnant. If anything, it’s been a launchpad for innovation, reinvention, and a whole lot of sweet surprises.

Sustainability is more than a buzzword—it’s a necessity in today’s chocolate industry. As consumers demand eco-friendly practices, chocolatiers must adapt their operations to reduce waste and improve efficiency. One often-overlooked aspect of sustainability is the role of high-quality molds.

Chocolate has a story to tell. Listening to and telling this story is the driving force behind The Cocoa Forge. We recently got to talk to Susan Fitch, the chocolate-maker behind The Cocoa Forge, based in Port Townsend, WA. Susan uses her innate curiosity in folklore, herbalism, and science to derive high-quality, nuanced chocolate that embodies her spirit of adventure and storytelling.

Every element of The Cocoa Forge story is focused on creating a unique experience. From their new home in a historic building that used to be a blacksmith forge and brewery. Their cacao is shipped via Sail Cargo. The cacao itself is ethically produced in limited quantities. Each bar produced is fine-flavor, single origin chocolate made from heirloom cacao beans. Each of these details are important for realizing how special and thoughtfully produced this chocolate is.
