About Avec et Sans

When our Founder, CaT, lost her beloved mother to the ravages of Glioblastoma she decided to honor her Mom by creating a line of chocolates that represented Jeanne’s  sweetness, complexity and beauty.

While sick, Jeanne found relief from her disease and the intense treatments through both Medical Marijuana and fine chocolates.  Though it’s not yet legal for CaT to sell “medibles” she is occasionally available in a private chef capacity for MMC patients and all of her confections can be made Avec (with) or  Sans (without)

CaT lives in City of Baltimore with her husband, Michael, and three cats.  

CaT’s confections are a sophisticated convergence of interesting flavors and textures with glorious finishes.  She prefers to work with quirky flavor combinations but understands the value and comfort of traditional combinations.  

Avec et Sans can create your favorite  confections in colors  to match or enhance your events.  Whether translating wedding motifs, corporate branding, or pivotal moments in time into flavors and colors, Avec et Sans will add a couture element to your event or occasion.  

Avec et Sans couldn’t avoid the trend and has the usual suspect hot cocoa flavors, but it wouldn’t be Avec et Sans without odd twists like London Fog (Earl Grey) or Spiced Cider.

CaT is available on a limited basis for Private Chef and Consulting Services.  It might be as simple as coming to your home and stocking your freezer with a week’s worth of dinners.  It might be as complex as translating a Brand into a flavor, or infusing the essence of a relationship  into the perfect truffle for a wedding.
