They also have a caf\u00e9 in their factory store where they sell espresso\/chocolate\/tea beverages.<\/p>\n<p>Started by Elisia Otavi-Makmur to make chocolates that she would be happy to give to her children (the company name is a combination of the kids\u2019 names, Raphael and Rio), she and her husband, Yohanes Makmur, opened the chocolate shop at their factory in December 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Raphio chocolate is as organic as possible, gluten free, soy free, vegan, non-GMO, and made by hand with no peanuts or preservatives. They also make some sugar free chocolate using natural sweeteners.<\/p>\n<p>Raphio Chocolate is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raphiochocolate.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">available online<\/a>, at their shop on Fresno and some stores around SFBA and further afield, and at special events.
