Chef Brandon Olsen and his artist/filmmaker fiancée, Sarah Keenlyside, have opened CXBO (Chocolates by Brandon Olsen) this month in Toronto
Olsen created two chocolate collections to be tasted (read: devoured) as a whole. We’re taking that as permission to do it in one sitting
We wanted to create something with meaning,' Keenlyside recounts. 'Not just flavour, but something you want to look at for a while as part of the experience of eating it'
Their design-forward thinking carries through to the custom-painted packaging. Olsen splatters and drip paints boxes à la Pollock late at night, and he or Keenlyside will document it
