OUR CHOCOLATE BAR MOLD

A deep sense of place infuses our work at Chequessett Chocolate. We pay homage to our home on Cape Cod with nautical packaging, featuring marine knots, ocean floor bathymetry, and famous Provincetown boats. 

 Trustworthy knots are the stock and trade of maritime life. They display natural, intricate beauty on top of their indispensable function. Delicious chocolate—like marine knots—brings people together. Enjoyed alone or with loved ones, chocolate is a deeply nostalgic flavor that brings us back to our happiest moments.

 Before chocolate is enjoyed, the bean-to-bar process binds chocolatiers to their producers, building strong connections across the globe. We believe that marine knots represent chocolate’s power to bring different people, places, and cultures together.

OUR CHOCOLATE BAR ENVELOPE

We believe that chocolate is an opportunity to learn about land; bathymetry, the study of the ocean floor, is just one manifestation of this constant curiosity. Before her career as a chocolatier, co-founder Katherine Reed studied cartography and the sea level rise. Bathymetry maps—existing at the intersection of these passions—became a source of fascination. 

In our mission to inspire reflection about the bounty and beauty of land, we carefully package our chocolate bars in paper wrappers printed with bathymetry maps. Charting the shape of underwater terrain with long, sloping lines, the naturally elegant design of these maps is a testament to the intrinsic artistry in our surroundings. 

We serve our chocolate in these memorable wrappers to commemorate our roots near the ocean and to provoke rumination on the wild charm around us.
