• our bonbons

    It can take up to 4 days to make one batch of our artisan chocolates. Each bonbon is painted by hand to give you a colorful visual of the flavor inside.  From painting, shelling, filling, capping, and then un-moulding, to being hand-packed into boxes just for you, our chocolates are both beautiful & delicious, but never too pretty to eat!

    Made with Conexión, Valrhona, & TCHO chocolate & quality ingredients, by buying and supporting Colorado Cocoa Pod, you are also helping to provide fair living wages to cocoa bean farmers & helping to put an end to child slave labor in the cocoa industry.

  • chocolatier & owner

    Colorado Cocoa Pod was started by Chocolatier and ex-Software Engineer Liane PR in the Spring of 2019. Liane has an Associate Degree in Baking & Pastry Arts from Johnson & Wales, and fell even more in love with artisan bonbons & fine chocolate during her Chocolates & Confections course. After interning & working at a small chocolate shop, she decided to start her own business, giving her freedom to create beautiful & delicious Asian inspired bonbons that are ✨ never too pretty to eat ✨ !

    When she isn’t in the kitchen creating new bonbons (or other tasty chocolate-y treats) and not doing weekend pop-ups, you can find Liane traveling with her husband, eating, searching for fine chocolate for her and craft coffee for him! They also enjoy snowboarding, taking care of their pets (2 dogs & 3 cats) and volunteering at DIA with their therapy cat Xeli who is part of the Denver Airport's CATS (Canine Airport Therapy Squad).
