Something exciting is on its way for Father’s Day... 👀

Our Dark Macadamia Butter Toffee Crunch is nearly back, and we have a feeling there will be a few very happy dark chocolate lovers out there.

Rich dark chocolate, buttery toffee crunch and macadamias — a pretty irresistible combination.

Tell us in the comments: are you more of a milk chocolate fan, or would you choose dark every time? 🍫

Have you ever wondered what the difference is between brittle and toffee? 🍫

At first glance, they can seem quite similar — but the ingredients, texture and eating experience are very different.

Our latest Makana Moments blog post explores exactly what sets them apart, including how we make our brittle and toffee at Makana and why each has its own distinctive crunch.

If you enjoy learning a little more about how your favourite treats are made, this is a good one to put the kettle on for. ☕️

☀️ A morning at Makana...

Every day begins with the little things.

Shelves are carefully stocked, gifts are wrapped by hand, fresh chocolate continues to be crafted, and our team prepares everything ready to welcome you.

Those small moments are what make every visit to Makana feel special.

🤎 We hope this little peek behind the scenes brightens your morning.

Ever wondered what goes into making a piece of Makana chocolate? 🍫

It's easy to see the finished product on the shelf, but behind every piece is a team of talented chocolatiers who make it all by hand.

From pouring and stirring, to cutting, dipping and packing, every batch passes through skilled hands that care about getting it right. We work efficiently, but we never take shortcuts. Every step matters because every piece that leaves our kitchens represents the quality we're proud to put our name on.

It's this craftsmanship, attention to detail and passion for chocolate that make Makana what it is.

✨ Swipe through to see what goes on behind the scenes.

We'd love to know… what part surprised you the most? Or have you ever visited one of our factories and seen our chocolatiers at work? Let us know below! 🤎

We're back! 👋🍫

After an incredible few days at the Auckland Food Show, it's time to swap the exhibition hall for the chocolate kitchen.

The team is back doing what we love most—handcrafting the treats you've been craving. From our famous Macadamia Butter Toffee Crunch to brittle, chocolates and more, fresh batches are already making their way through the kitchen.

Now we have an important question... 👇

If you could only choose ONE Makana favourite, what would it be? 🍫

Tell us in the comments—we're curious to see which treat comes out on top!

Sometimes the best ideas start with...

"What if we put our Macadamia Butter Toffee Crunch on a pizza?" 😂🍕

That's exactly what happened when we teamed up with De Gustibus on the first day of the Auckland Food Show. It wasn't planned, it won't be making a comeback (for now 😉), but it certainly got people talking!

So now it's your turn...

Would you give toffee pizza a go?
👍 Absolutely!
❤️ I'd try a slice.
😆 I'll stick with regular pizza!

Tag someone who'd either love this... or completely refuse to eat it! 🍕🍫
