Malynne Simeon-Guieb Ever Chocolate

Ever Chocolate began with a yearning for taste of home. Filipino-American creator Malynne Simeon-Guieb grew up traveling back and forth to the Philippines eating sweet treats made by family and local bakeries. One of the delicacies was povolron - a milky, crumbly, melt in your mouth shortbread cookie. During the Covid-19 pandemic, Malynne began creating these delights in her own kitchen. She made traditional flavors like ube and pandan and then began experimenting with other flavors like strawberry dipped in milk chocolate and the ever popular macnut toffee. Every one is mega SARAP (Tagalog for “delicious”)! Each bite is nostalgic for some and a new adventure for others. But either way, Patrons say Ever Chocolate polvoron are addictive so they keep coming back for more!
