☕🍫 Some things are just better together.⁠
⁠
This National Coffee Day, we’re celebrating the perfect pairing: a good cup of coffee and our Espresso Chocolate Bar. Smooth, bold, and made for chocolate and coffee lovers alike. It’s the kind of combination that makes your morning or afternoon pick-me-up even better.⁠
⁠
Coffee in one hand, chocolate in the other. Sounds like a pretty sweet way to celebrate to us. 🤎☕

Fall is officially here and we’re ready for a warm cup of chocolate to celebrate. 🍂☕⁠
⁠
Meet Maya Drinking Chocolate. Flavorful cocoa meets bright orange, warm cinnamon, and a subtle hint of smoky Ancho chile for a flavor that’s anything but ordinary.⁠
⁠
It’s cozy, rich, and just the right amount of unexpected. Consider this your sign to start elevating the crisp fall mornings and cozy nights in. 🤎✨

In honor of our 25th anniversary, we asked which retired Gearharts flavor we should bring back and Boarding Pass won with flying colors! And what better day to announce its return than National Peanut Day? 🥜⁠
⁠
This fan favorite features honey and roasted peanut caramel, dark chocolate Biscoff ganache and our signature dark chocolate for one seriously delicious bite. 🍫⁠
⁠
Boarding Pass lands in stores and online mid-September and will only be available for a limited time, so don’t miss your chance to grab a box or two! Your boarding pass is officially in hand. ✈️
