Socola Chocolatier

When I was 15, my sister, Wendy, and I co-founded Socola Chocolatier. Socola has always been a family endeavor. Wendy always had a passion for chocolate and was dreaming up (and cooking up) her own truffle recipes when she was a teenager. I quickly contributed my talents and became Wendy’s business and marketing partner.

Wendy and I started off by selling directly to family and friends, setting up in front of our parents' nail salon during the Santa Rosa's Downtown Market in the summertime. Today, Socola is a vibrant business with an amazing team of staff members who work together to create the most stunning chocolates at our brick-and-mortar shop in the middle of San Francisco (535 Folsom St, San Francisco, CA 94105).

Socola has been featured in Forbes, NBC News, the San Francisco Chronicle, Zagat, and has a client list that includes Google, Tiffany, Sephora, and American Express.

AND… in August 2024, we opened our newest chocolate shop right inside the San Francisco International Airport (SFO) — find us in Terminal 3, near Gate E6!
