Our Story

Jasper and Myrtle Chocolates is a small multi award winning artisan chocolate maker based in Canberra, Australia.

Created by Li Peng Monroe in 2015, the name was chosen because of its Australian origins. Jasper is a semi-precious stone found in WA where Li Peng spent many years, while Myrtle, a native herb, is commonly found in Northern NSW where Peter, her partner and co-owner of Jasper and Myrtle, was born.

All our chocolates are handmade from cacao beans we personally source from Bougainville, Papua New Guinea. Our aim is to create premium, original and unique bean to bar handmade chocolate.

We have an extensive range that includes single origin dark chocolate bars that focus on the flavour of the cacao beans and a wide range of flavoured chocolate bars that use natural ingredients to create truly delicious chocolates.

We also produce premium drinking chocolate made with our bean to bar chocolate and also a range of chocolate coated nuts and ginger.

We invite you to taste the difference.
