About

Pure Lovin’ Chocolate is located in beautiful Victoria, BC, Canada and was imagined, created and is now operated by a mother (Cyndy) and daughter (Leah) team.

Cyndy and Leah have always shared a close relationship and a mutual love of wholesome food, animals and the environment.

Leah fell in love with cooking at an early age, while helping Cyndy create delicious, healthy meals in the kitchen of their log home in rural BC. This is also where Cyndy taught her the art of confectionery: making Sponge Toffee, Brittle, Caramel and other treats for special occasions.

Leah went on to study cooking at S.A.I.T in Calgary, Alberta and graduated with her Red Seal Certificate in the trade, with a keen interest in sweets and confectionery. After years of cooking professionally in restaurants, Leah was looking to take a different direction and focus on a more socially conscious approach to cooking.

Meanwhile, Cyndy had just returned to Victoria following several years of living abroad. After living on separate continents for years, Leah and Cyndy were both eager to spend more time together and do something they were both passionate about. After Leah made up a batch of vegan truffles for Cyndy as a Mother’s Day gift, the concept of Pure Lovin’ Chocolate was born!

Who We Support

A Home for Hooves

Home for Hooves is a volunteer run non profit organisation registered with the BC government that offers a forever home for rescued and abandoned farm animals in Duncan, BC. The sanctuary was founded in September 2017 and is the second official farm sanctuary on Vancouver Island.

They currently have over 50 residents at A Home for Hooves including pigs, goats, chickens, ducks, turkeys, dogs, guinea pigs and cats. They ensure all the animals are provided with the best care and a good quality home where they are able to live out their natural lives.

We are the proud monthly sponsor of Petunia, at Home for Hooves.

Petunia came to Home For Hooves with several health ailments, basic care needs not met, depressed and barely mobile. Now she’s a sassy grumpy old lady that everyone adores. Arriving at Home For Hooves Sanctuary gave them the opportunity to correct the wrongs in her life. She now enjoys a life full of love, pets and freedom.
