Hi, I’m Lola, the founder and baker behind Chocolate and the Chip. What started as a simple love for chocolate chip cookies turned into a mission to help people slow down and reconnect with something real. In the early years, when I decided to turn my hobby into a full-time business during the pandemic, it was all hustle and late nights. But as I’ve grown—and this brand has too—I’ve learned that slowing down is where the real sweetness lives.
In 2023, I was diagnosed with PCOS, and it completely changed how I looked at food and balance. I started reformulating recipes with ingredients that felt better for my body—gluten-free, vegan-friendly, and all-natural. It became less about perfection and more about feeling good while creating something by hand.
Our cookie mix was born from that shift. It’s an invitation to pause, pour, and stir up something simple and satisfying. Whether you bake with butter or keep it plant-based, it’s made to sweeten your slowdown and bring back the joy of homemade cookies.
