“I owe it all to chocolate, art books and young men.”-Beatrice “Beato” Wood
Beatrice Wood, known as the “Mama of Dada”, lived until 105 and created art every day. One of the few women to pioneer an avant-garde movement, Wood made her mark in the art world with gravitas and whimsy. Anti-established in Ojai where wellness, creativity and pleasure collide, Beato Chocolates honors her trailblazing legacy. Woman-owned and artist focused, our handcrafted, Fair Trade Certified bars, use the finest, locally sourced ingredients. Ojai, Wood said, was like finding “the gold at the end of a long obstacle-strewn rainbow.” Lisa and Heather are mission-driven founders. They support many non-profits and social causes, a portion of their proceeds go to the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts’ educational programs. Beato Chocolates is a celebration of Ojai and the rich history of their beautiful home town.
