Michelle Armstrong
Chocolatier
From Coastal Beginnings to Chocolate Masterpieces
Nestled in the seaside town of Kiama, just south of Sydney, M A Chocolatier is where artisanal craft meets edible elegance. Founded in 2020 by chocolatier Michelle Armstrong, the brand was born out of a desire to offer more than just chocolate—it’s about creating an experience that feels indulgent, intentional, and lovingly handcrafted.
A Journey Steeped in Sweetness
Michelle’s passion for culinary excellence took shape long before bonbons became her canvas. From early experiments in the kitchen to refining her techniques in New Zealand, the UK, and throughout Australia, her 25-year hospitality journey culminated in a love affair with chocolate. Trained at the Australian Patisserie Academy and The Chocolate Academy, she brings a perfectionist’s eye and an artist’s soul to every creation.
Made with Heart, Delivered with Care
Each chocolate is handmade to order, with every mould polished and every flavour tested until it sings. No detail escapes Michelle’s watchful gaze—from the delicate snap of the shell to the aesthetic beauty of its packaging. Whether you're celebrating or simply craving a moment of indulgence, our chocolates arrive like treasures—from our hands to yours.
A Taste of Kiama
Rooted in local identity, M A Chocolatier reflects Michelle’s love for place and people. She sources local ingredients where possible, designs her packaging with care (including co-branded collaborations), and infuses each product with the spirit of the South Coast. Pickup is available for nearby customers, adding another layer of personal touch to the experience.
Excellence Is Our Everyday
At M A Chocolatier, “good enough” is never good enough. We strive for brilliance in flavour, form, and service. With an ever-evolving palate and a playful mind, Michelle continues to innovate—from coffee-infused caramels to florally inspired bonbons—always a few steps ahead of the ordinary.
