Capturing the imaginations of chocolate lovers, young and old since 2012

From rich, velvety chocolate to creamy artisan ice cream, every bite is made with passion, tradition, and a love for all things sweet.

How it all began

In 2012, husband and wife duo Ian and Leanne Neeland transformed a Yarra Valley property into the The Chocolateries Yarra Valley, turning their dream of a chocolate haven into reality. Now, with over 480 handcrafted chocolates, artisan ice cream, decadent desserts and delicious hot chocolates, it’s no wonder over 1 million visitors each year come in to our Chocolateries to experience the place where passion meets chocolate. Right in the heart of Victoria.

Our evolution

Following the sweet success of the The Chocolateries Yarra Valley, a second destination was launched along the Great Ocean Road in 2016, and a third petite Chocolaterie launching in Flinders at the Mornington Peninsula in 2018. Each offers an irresistible experience of handcrafted chocolate, artisan ice cream, and freshly made treats.
