My guest this week is Fiona Harrison - Indigenous Australian chocolatier, storyteller, and the founder of Chocolate On Purpose, a purpose-driven business blending couverture chocolate with Australian native botanicals.

Based in Millthorpe, NSW, Fiona works with corporate gift buyers to help them find truly meaningful, distinctly Australian gifts - gifts that not only delight the senses, but deepen cultural understanding. Through her handcrafted Bush Food Chocolate range, Fiona shares the traditional use of native botanicals by First Nations Peoples, building respect for ancient wisdom through the universal language of chocolate.

Certified by the Savour Chocolate & Patisserie School, Fiona has twice taken first place in the Mr Chilli Chocolate Competition and has had her dark chocolate range certified vegan by Vegan Australia. Her creations have been featured in Qantas lounges during NAIDOC Week and selected by major organisations across sectors - from KPMG to the Australian College of Nursing - to celebrate and honour Indigenous culture.

At Chocolate On Purpose, Fiona’s motto is: “Yindyamangidyal Marramarra - With Respect and Honour we Create.” That ethos lives in every bar she makes and every story she tells - transforming chocolate into a powerful medium for truth-telling, reconciliation, and connection.

In this episode, we talk about Fiona’s journey into chocolate making, the role of food in cultural education, and how she’s helping Australian businesses give with both impact and intention.
