Ethel Chocolate | Made in Lebanon
Handcrafted chocolate from the heart of the Bekaa Valley.
About Ethel Chocolate
Ethel Chocolate is a Lebanese chocolate maker based in Zahle, the main city of the Bekaa Valley. Working away from Beirut’s chocolate cluster, Ethel has built its identity as a dedicated chocolate house crafting quality pralines, bars and assortments, and bringing a serious chocolate-making presence to the Bekaa region.
The brand focuses on the core of a modern chocolatier’s work: filled chocolates, chocolate bars, dragees and gift boxes designed for occasions and celebrations. As a regional maker with its own retail identity, Ethel gives customers in the Bekaa and beyond a locally rooted alternative to the big Beirut-based chocolate names, without compromising on presentation or quality.
