Seattle Chocolate Company is a small to mid-sized chocolate producer based in Seattle, Washington, founded in 1991, specializing in meltaway truffles and truffle bars. The company weathered the destruction of its original factory in the 2001 Nisqually Earthquake, after which Jean Thompson assumed ownership and the CEO role to guide the business forward. In 2012, the jcoco line was introduced under the Seattle Chocolate umbrella, with a program to donate fresh servings of food to food banks in Washington, California, and New York; to date, nearly 4 million servings have been donated. The company has expanded its offerings over the years, launching products such as the Chocolate Greetings Collection in 2022 and several seasonal lines, including Summer Scoops in 2021 and a spring collection of truffle bars and two-bite truffles. In 2024, Seattle Chocolate partnered with Specialty Cocoa & Chocolate Associates to plan its first impact investment in West Africa.
