While we’ll never pass up a mini Krackel bar, these small cubes of handcrafted chocolate made in Flower Mound deliver big when it comes to flavor. Plus, they’re made locally.

Wicked BOLD Vegan Chocolates is part of Wicked BOLD Vegan Kitchen, a small cafe serving a plant-based breakfast and lunch menu. Desserts, of course, include WB chocolate. Owners Brooklynn and Deric Cahill started experimenting around 2015 with making their own premium chocolate, primarily for health reasons but also because Brooklynn wasn’t fond of most commercial brands. Lacking experience and the proper equipment, their first efforts were less than stellar.

But after moving to Texas in 2019, they started a new business — Deric is a serial entrepreneur — and got serious about making chocolate. The name comes from Deric’s Boston background, where everything is “wicked” something. The “BOLD” is an acronym using the first initial of the couple’s names plus those of Ophelia and Landon, their children. They keep the ingredients simple, sourcing fair trade and organic cacao; the packaging is clean and they share recipes through social media, often with the help of Ophelia. In early summer, Wicked BOLD got picked up by Whole Foods Market, where all the chocolates — classic dark, cayenne, hazelnut and sea salt — are sold. You also can find them at the Flower Mound cafe or online.
