2023 18th Most Loved Workplace by Newsweek. Hu aims to unite simplicity with unbeatable taste and the company’s employees believe in obsessively vetting ingredients so their customers don't have to. Born out of its NYC restaurant, Hu Kitchen, Hu's paleo-friendly snacks include award-winning chocolate bars and a grain-free cracker line, which set new standards for high-quality food products made with “no weird ingredients—ever.” The company has grown from catering to a cult following to becoming a go-to staple for A-list celebs and health and wellness influencers. Hu Chocolate is now available in over 3,500 retail locations across the country, with increased international demand.

Dandelion Chocolate is a bean-to-bar chocolate factory that began in the Mission District of San Francisco. In early 2010, we opened our doors on Valencia Street after sharing our love of small-batch, single-origin chocolate with our friends and family for years. We source all of our cocoa beans ourselves and travel to origin to forge a mutually-beneficial relationship with global partners who grow and ferment cacao. We then roast, crack, sort, winnow, grind, refine, and temper small batches of beans, and then mold and package each bar. By sourcing high quality cocoa beans and carefully crafting them, we try to bring out the individual flavors and nuances of each bean. Since then, we have opened more locations in San Francisco and one in Las Vegas. We produce out chocolate in our factory on 16th Street in San Francisco. In addition, our 16th Street factory is also home to our own pastry kitchen, Bloom chocolate salon, and confections kitchen. In addition to making our own chocolate and confections, we stock our shelves with bonbons and confections we make with collaborators we admire. Stop by our 16th Street Factory for a tour, classes on sourcing and making single-origin chocolate, or to see our chocolate makers in action while sipping a cup of hot chocolate. Many thanks, Todd
