About Us

Aroha Chocolate® was founded by husband & wife team Jo Logan & Mike Duke (aka Wobblie).
Jo began making chocolate gifts for friends & family for special occasions & soon realised this was a passion she wished to pursue.

“Our wish is you & your family enjoy our chocolate treats as much as we do.”  Jo & Wobblie.

After becoming an Ecole Chocolat Certified Chocolatier by completing training both here in NZ & Canada, Jo continues to develop new & exciting techniques & taste sensations to deliver you with fresh confectionery delights.

To learn more about what it means to be a certifed chocolatier please click the Ecole Chocolat logo.

Jo continues to evolve not just a product range but the skill set behind them.
