Los Angeles, CA (August 4, 2024) – MOIRÉ, a pioneering date-sweetened chocolate company, is thrilled to announce the launch of their second collection for the company. This series, Sister Crops, launches just in time for National Sisters Day on Sunday, August 4th. This unique collection pays homage to the rich agricultural traditions of Peru and Mexico, offering a taste of terroir in a new and exciting way.
The Sister Crops Collection features two innovative, plant-based *M!LK* chocolate bars, crafted with sustainably grown plants and meticulously sourced cocoa beans from their respective countries of origin. By substituting traditional dairy ingredients with locally revered crops, MOIRÉ aims to support the economic vitality of agricultural communities abroad while reducing the environmental impact of dairy farming.
ANDEAN LUCUMA *M!LK* CHOCOLATE from CHUNCHO, PERU
Experience the flavors of Peru with our Lucuma *M!LK* chocolate bar. This creation combines the beloved fruits of cacao and lucuma, replacing dried milk powder with the sustainable and nutrient-rich superfood. The result is a rich, and silky smooth chocolate with a distinctive warm butterscotch flavor with hints of fresh cut hay.
TUXPEÑO CORN *M!LK* CHOCOLATE from CHIAPAS, MEXICO
The Tuxpeño Corn*M!LK* chocolate bar celebrates the rich farming history of Chiapas, Mexico. This bar features ground heirloom Tuxpeño corn, a traditional staple of the region, as a substitute for dairy. The result is a creamy and earthy chocolate with a distinctive toasted cornbread flavor with notes of malt.
"We are excited to launch Sister Crops on National Sisters Day, a day that celebrates the bonds of sisterhood and community," said Julia Ziegler-Haynes, founder of MOIRÉ. "Through these bars, we aim to showcase the beauty and diversity of the ingredients and cultures they represent, while also promoting sustainable and ethical practices in the chocolate industry."
The Sister Crops Collection will be showcased alongside MOIRÉ’s much beloved, evolving series of single-origin chocolates, the Origin Stories at New York City’s premier home and gift fair Shoppe Object from August 4th-6th. The new chocolates will also be available for purchase on MOIRÉ's website, MOIRÉcacao.com.
Join us in celebrating National Sisters Day with a taste of these luxurious and unique chocolates!

At MOIRÉ, we believe that chocolate is more than just a treat; it's an experience. We meticulously source cacao from all over the world, highlighting the vast variety of incredible flavors that this magical fruit provides. The same level of care goes into sweetening our chocolate. Instead of utilizing refined sugars and chemical fillers typically found in chocolate, at MOIRÉ, our chocolate contains only three ingredients: Cacao beans, cocoa butter, and dates!
We have found that dates provide a nutritional boost while allowing the euphoric, mood-lifting qualities of the cacao to be fully enjoyed in a decadently gentle way as opposed to refined sugars that so often cause an energy spike and simultaneous harsh crash.
Our mission is to craft exquisite, date-sweetened, artisan chocolate that delights the senses paired with eye-catching, eco-friendly packaging designed to elevate the everyday moments of life. Our evolving collection of single origin bars are entirely organic and on top of all this, our dedication to sustainability, ethical sourcing, and impeccable craftsmanship sets us apart in the world of chocolate and ensures a deliciously smooth indulgence for all to enjoy.
