About McGuire Chocolate Company

McGuire Chocolate is a bean to bar chocolate maker with a focus on preparing a simple and high quality product from the inside out. Mark stumbled across cacao beans while backpacking around Central America. While eating these beans as a healthy, lightweight snack he couldn’t help but wonder how did this turn into chocolate? After some attempts to make chocolate on his travels – roasting cacao over a fire, peeling beans by hand and putting them through a meat grinder – Mark returned to Calgary with a suitcase full of cacao looking for a chocolate maker to learn from. He quickly realized there were a lot of people working with chocolate but not many making chocolate from the cacao bean. The Cafe is open 9:30am – 4:00pm Tues – Sat. We make all of our ice cream in house. The coffee we serve is sourced from from Epoch Chemistry – a delicious coffee roaster in Moncton, NB.
