Becoming NEXTonSCENE™

From Interior Architecture to Sweet Vegan Chocolate Extraordinare!

My maternal grandma, Georgia May, taught me everything there is to know about cooking, always with love and the values of a strong Midwest work ethic. She inspired me to move to NYC and study interior architecture. Still, it wasn't until I combined my career in design and the sweet memories of cooking with my Grandma that  I decided to become a vegan chef, and Sweet Vegan was born.
As a small woman-owned business based in Harlem, our mission is twofold: Create fantastic chocolate that is allergen-friendly (Dairy, Nut, Soy, Gluten, and Preservative-Free), and to support our local community and empower the next generation.
They train and motivate students and share about entrepreneurship and sustainability.
