![]() We’re ecstatic with the result and can’t wait to share it with everyone. We launched on January 1, after spending more than a year developing the recipe. So we founded Gatsby Chocolate, which is basically the Halo Top of chocolate: 1/2 the calories, 1/4 of the sugar, but somehow still tastes just like decadent, melt-in-your-mouth chocolate. There were some low-sugar chocolates like Lily’s but even they still had almost as many calories as brands like Lindt, Ghirardelli, Hershey’s, etc. We looked at different food categories and settled on chocolate because there were no other low-calorie chocolates literally none. After selling Halo Top in 2019, I – along with a bunch of other Halo Top team members – were trying to figure out what to do next. I’m the cofounder of Halo Top, which was one of the first ice cream brands to combine low-calorie with great taste. Great idea! Can you please share the back story of Gatsby Chocolate? The kids love it because they create their own customized candy and snacks bowl, and Jennifer (my wife) and I love it because we get to watch a movie. We also love movies and regularly go to the theaters with the kids as well as have a family tradition of a Friday-night movie at home. As a family, we try to do as much as we can outside (Chicago-weather permitting) like parks, playgrounds, and sports. I mentioned that we currently live in the Chicago area. I have three kids – Maxwell (5), Tessa (3), Easton (4 months). We’ve moved 4 times in the last 6 years so are very ready to put some roots down.Ĭan you please share a bit about your family? ![]() We’re looking forward to settling down in a house and into a community where we can live for 20+ years. We just had our third kid and we’re looking for more space (and, most importantly, a backyard). We are moving to Lake Forest at the end of the summer. I’m from Charlottesville, VA and I currently live in Chicago. Where are you from and where do you live now? Want to try Gatsby Chocolate?
