Private Label & Custom Recipe Development

Your brand. Our chocolate line.

Tell us the product you wish existed. We formulate it, certify it, and ship it under your brand.

From a single reformulated ingredient to a complete product line — developed by our R&D team in Toronto and produced at industrial scale.

01Two ways to work with us

Pick a route — or combine both.

A

Private Label

Our proven recipes, your name on the box.

Choose from our catalog — couverture, chips, dragées, decorations, sauces, fillings — and we handle the rest: packaging coordination, labeling, nutrition panels, and complete certification documentation under your brand.

  • Catalog-based — the fastest route to market
  • Lower minimums, from about 500 kg per SKU
  • Retail-ready packaging under your brand
B

Custom Recipe Development

A product that doesn't exist yet — until you brief us.

Our R&D team formulates to your taste, texture, functional, and claims targets, benches samples until you sign off, and locks a specification that belongs to you.

  • First bench samples in 2–4 weeks
  • Iterative tastings until the spec is right
  • Your recipe stays exclusive — NDA on request

Most partners do both. The form below covers either — or the combination.

02Capability

Briefs we've turned into products.

Chocolate chips01

“We buy 4,000-count chips, but we want them crunchier and less sweet.”

We reformulated the recipe to their spec — same bake stability, new bite, lower sugar — and now produce it exclusively for them.

Done

Functional chocolate02

“A chocolate with probiotics and a yogurt taste profile for our health-snack line.”

We developed a strain-stable formulation with a clean yogurt tang and the shelf life to match — a product that didn't exist until they asked.

Done

Free-from03

“We need a vegan, no-added-sugar couverture that still snaps and shines.”

We formulated a plant-based couverture that tempers like classic dark — no compromise at the display case.

Done

Industrial04

“Our enrobing line runs hot and fast — standard couverture leaves streaks.”

We tuned viscosity and the tempering curve to their exact line speed. Their coating room stopped fighting the chocolate.

Done

Retail trend05

“We want the pistachio-kadayif bar everyone is asking for — with our name on it.”

Recipe, fill ratio, moulding, and retail-ready packaging — shipped under their label in a single production cycle.

Done

Decorations06

“Curls and shapes in our corporate colors, for our signature desserts.”

Custom moulds, color-matched cocoa butter, food-safe pigment specs — decoration that is unmistakably theirs.
