When it comes to indulging in chocolate, few can rival the mastery of Swiss chocolatiers. We are a brand rooted in tradition, bringing the finesse of Swiss chocolate-making to the world, right from the heart of Hollywood. Founded with love by Marianne and Eric Manes, we combine generations of chocolate-making expertise with a modern approach to crafting the finest chocolates and truffles, making it an irresistible choice for chocolate lovers.
A Legacy of Chocolate-Making
Marianne Manes hails from a Swiss family that has been crafting exceptional truffles and chocolates for over three generations. Her upbringing, surrounded by world-class confectionery, ignited her passion for creating chocolates that exemplify the highest standards of quality. Now, along with her husband Eric, Marianne has taken the traditional methods of Swiss chocolate-making and infused them with modern flair to form Coco Suisse.
Here, only the finest ingredients are used, with the foundation being the premium Swiss chocolate that has become synonymous with excellence. The cocoa beans are sourced directly from farmers across the globe at Fairtrade prices, ensuring not just superior quality but also supporting sustainable farming practices. This transparent sourcing ensures that the cocoa beans are harvested without the use of child labor, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to ethical practices.

Quality You Can Taste
The process of crafting our chocolates is an art form. After the beans are sourced, they are roasted in Switzerland under the watchful eyes of master chocolatiers, who painstakingly ensure the chocolate reaches its famous smoothness and complexity. Through a method called conching, the cocoa mass is refined over 72 hours, enhancing its rich, nuanced flavors. This dedication to traditional Swiss techniques results in a level of quality that can be tasted in every bite of Coco Suisse chocolate.
When the chocolate reaches our kitchen, it’s transformed into a variety of creations that blend simplicity with indulgence. From their signature Chocolate Lovies to their highly addictive Nonpareils, each product showcases a thoughtful balance of ingredients. The Lovies are 62% cocoa buttons topped with an assortment of dried fruits like apricots, cherries, and mango—perfect for sharing. The Nonpareils evoke fond memories of childhood favorites, but with a sophisticated twist thanks to the use of premium dark chocolate.
