Maker Workshop
Maker Workshop turns your Chocolate Lab into a full production workspace. Coordinate with customers, keep marketing in sync, and understand what is driving your business—on top of the recipes and batches you already track in CocoaCraft.
Built on top of your Chocolate Lab
Chocolate Lab is your recipe and batch engine. Maker Workshop keeps all of that, and layers on the tools you need once you are running real production: a customer-facing workspace, a marketing content hub, and simple analytics tied directly to what you are making.
Everything in one maker workspace
Story & launch support
Marketing Hub
Turn your recipes and batch history into consistent product blurbs, origin stories, and launch bundles your marketing team can use immediately.
