John Kelly Chocolates, co-founded by John Kelson and Kelly Green, has become a distinguished name in the world of gourmet confections. Established in 2004, the company has grown from a modest chocolate factory in Hollywood to a national brand renowned for its artisanal chocolates.

Before venturing into the chocolate industry, both John and Kelly had careers that emphasized creativity and quality. Their shared passion for producing high-quality products and bringing joy to others led them to the world of chocolate. In 2004, they opened a small chocolate factory on a charming street off Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, armed with determination and a recipe for gourmet chocolate fudge.

The duo launched John Kelly Chocolates with the vision of creating exceptional chocolates that would stand out in the market. Their initial offering was a unique “truffle fudge,” a proprietary recipe that combined the creaminess of truffle with the richness of fudge. This product set the foundation for the brand’s identity.

Growth and Expansion

Thanks to a devoted following of food enthusiasts and A-list celebrities, John Kelly Chocolates found sweet success. The company expanded its product line to include 19 variations of the original truffle fudge, along with other confections such as walnut caramel clusters, moulded chocolates, salted caramels, and chocolate-dipped fruits. Their products are now sold in high-end department stores, specialty shops, hotel gift shops, grocers, and online.

Commitment to Quality and Artisanal Craftsmanship

John Kelly Chocolates prides itself on handcrafting its products with meticulous attention to detail. They use all-natural, premium-quality ingredients and make everything in small batches. The level of detail and hand craftsmanship brought to every single piece sets them apart in the confectionery industry.

Among their signature offerings is the Dark Chocolate with French Grey Sea Salt, which combines rich dark chocolate with a hint of sea salt for a balanced flavour. Another popular item is the Semi-Sweet Chocolate & Caramel with Hawaiian Alaea Sea Salt, featuring a layer of all-natural artisan caramel atop semi-sweet truffle fudge, coated in semi-sweet chocolate and topped with a pinch of Hawaiian Alaea sea salt.

Community Engagement and Recognition

John Kelly Chocolates has received numerous accolades and press mentions for its exceptional products and commitment to quality. The company’s dedication to handcrafting chocolates has garnered a loyal customer base and recognition within the gourmet food industry.

Both John and Kelly continue to infuse their values of creativity and quality into the business. Their hands-on approach and commitment to excellence reflect their passion for the art of chocolate making.

Future Endeavors

Looking ahead, John Kelly Chocolates aims to continue innovating within the gourmet chocolate industry while maintaining the artisanal quality that defines its brand. They plan to expand their product offerings and reach new markets, all while staying true to their core values of creativity, quality, and bringing joy to others through their confections.
