Sweet Marguerites is the pride and joy of the Swoboda family, in South Portland, Maine. The family’s passion is making and sharing the finest homemade chocolates. Every step of the chocolate making process is done with care and using the finest ingredients. The Swobodas make each batch of chocolates entirely by hand. They consider the chocolate making process a craft and make their sweets with an artisan approach.

Marguerite Swoboda has a culinary arts degree and has trained with chocolatiers from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY and Ecole Chocolate in Oregon. Her passion for chocolate keeps her in the kitchen many nights, testing new flavors and techniques. Nothing makes her happier than the process of melting and tempering fine couveture chocolate!

The remainder of the family, husband Bill, daughter Anna, and son Jeff, do just about everything else, from sample tasting, to construction, shipping and handling, production, web management, support and encouragement. Without them Sweet Marguerites would still be a dream.
