John & Kira’s is a boutique chocolate company known for using high-quality ingredients sourced from urban gardens and small family farms. The founders, John and Kira, met in 1999 through a shared love of food and community. Inspired by a road trip exploring food innovation, they launched the company in 2002, incorporating local ingredients like mint grown by students at school gardens in the city. John & Kira's chocolates gained national attention when Gourmet Magazine featured them in 2003. Since then, the collections have expanded with creative delicacies like Chocolate Ladybugs and Chocolate Whiskey Figs, all while maintaining a focus on ethical sourcing and imaginative design.
