Brooklyn-based designers Mary Matson and Matt Even are making chocolate.
Their motto? Handmade chocolates made in small batches. Always fresh and delicious. We haven't gotten our hands on one of these bars yet, but have already fallen for the whole package.
And what is that package, you ask? Bright colors and clean lines served with a heaping side of nostalgia.
The husband and wife team (she's designed for Kate Spade, he's an art director at an ad agency), made sweet treats for friends each holiday for a decade before deciding to make a business of it. They claim to draw inspiration from vintage rugby shirts to Sol LeWitt's deceptively simple canvases to old fashioned Neapolitan ice cream.
It's the celebration of the candy bar as a perfect pop object.
As if the whole situation couldn't get more precious, you can watch the trailer for the bespoke chocolate editions here or take a peek inside Mary & Matt's studio here.
Oh wow I shouldn't be looking at this, where can I get my hands on some?
