UK: Made Uncommon acquires chocolate brands Love Cocoa and H!p

Made Uncommon, the parent company behind Coco Chocolatier, Up-Up and Otherly Oatm*lk and Seed & Bean, has announced the acquisition of Love Cocoa and H!p for an undisclosed amount.

Love Cocoa is described as offering a range of ethically sourced, responsibly crafted chocolate bars, including premium milk and dark varieties, alongside elegant truffles. H!P is claimed to offer a modern twist on traditional chocolate with its plant-based formulation using oat milk.

Calum Haggerty, founder of Coco Chocolatier and CEO of Made Uncommon, said: “This isn’t about consolidation, it’s about curation. We’re assembling the most exciting brands in chocolate and gifting, giving each one the platform and creative freedom to thrive, while building a group that is far greater than the sum of its parts”.

“By supporting chocolate crafted closer to its source, we’re shortening the supply chain, improving transparency and ensuring that more benefit stays within cocoa-growing communities”, he added.
