As a kid, I never liked chocolate. People find it funny, but it’s true! There were only a few select flavours I liked and no one accessible to me was making them – so I made them myself! After leaving a job working at a chocolate store to work in an office, I was seriously bored. Alicja Confections started from a need for a creative outlet. Everything from the packaging, flavours, marketing, and branding are things I love to do.
OUR STORY
Alicja Confections started in 2015 as a creative outlet. We use classic techniques of chocolate making, but we don’t leave it there. Every chocolate is a new, weird, interesting, funky, delicious flavour you won't normally find anywhere else.
PRIMARY MATERIALS
Chocolate: white, milk, dark, and ruby. Every piece of chocolate you'll eat from us has been tempered with love and a lot of muscle.
THE POSTCARD CHOCOLATE BAR
One of the most unique handmade chocolate bars in the world (at least in our opinion), the Postcard Chocolate Bar is our bestselling product.
A chocolate bar you can send in the letter mail using only one $1.94 letter mail stamp in Canada, we've sent over 25,000 bar in the mail since 2015. Yes, you really can send a chocolate bar in the mail!

As a kid, I especially liked chocolate. Little did “Childhood Nick” know, this sweet treat would become one of the largest influences in his life. I don’t think you can blame him for not seeing it, though . . . Aerospace Engineering degree, Royal Canadian Air Force Engineering Officer, lawyer, chocolate store owner? One of those things is definitely not like the other. Oddly enough, I couldn’t imagine it any other way.
