Katherine Anne Confections is a cute, small cafe in Logan Square, Chicago that has a fabulous assortment of chocolate truffles, candies, hot chocolates, and sandwiches with vegan choices.
Terra Klay partnered with Katherine to introduce her drinking hot chocolate in the curated gift boxes because they are committed to do good.
They use fair trade cacao and work with local farmers for their Jersey cream, Midwest fruits, honey and seasonal ingredients.
“We don’t use anything that your grandmother wouldn’t: no artificial flavors and no corn syrup”.
When asked about how businesses can bring change, she said “People matter in every way: we start with our staff, and pay well above minimum wage along with contributing to their health insurance and offering paid time off. We truly believe that a business’ first asset is its employees and try to bring change at that basic level with our staff. We also vet our suppliers and work with small, family-owned businesses and farms for our ingredients, supporting the local economy and ecosystem.”
Today you can find Katherine in her kitchen at the cafe, stirring caramel and rolling truffles just like she did at the age of 10 but with lot more chocolate.
