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.
White, milk, dark, and ruby. Every piece of chocolate you'll eat from us has been tempered with love and a lot of muscle.

Nick & Alicja
Nicholas - Numbers Man, Taste Tester
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.
Alicja - Founder, Head Chocolatier
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.
"All of Alicja's products are creative, unique, & delicious! Not only does everything arrive in pristine condition, but every purchase is packaged with obvious care. The original concept of the Postcard Chocolate Bars is such a fun & innovative way to share the yummy love with your friends & family."

LEXI & STAFF
Lexi - General Manager, Chocolatier, Amazing Person
I’ve always had a passion for baking (and eating) sweet treats! After learning to work with chocolate while studying pastry arts in college, I knew it was something I wanted to pursue. I was so excited to find a local chocolate business that creates unique flavour combinations and modern designs. I started as a part-time chocolatier at Alicja Confections in 2018; and now I’m the General Manager, where I get to use my love of food and organization everyday.
