Legacy of an Icon

Compartés, an iconic presence in Los Angeles, holds a remarkable legacy that spans almost 75 years. It was established in 1950 by Mr. and Mrs. Compartes who sought to craft exquisite European-style chocolate confections right in their Brentwood home. From these humble beginnings, Compartés swiftly expanded its influence, becoming an inseparable part of LA's vibrant Westside, serving a distinguished clientele that included luminaries such as Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, The Kennedys, and Winston Churchill.


Some decades later, the chocolatier was acquired by the Grahm family. At a mere 15 years old, Jonathan Grahm embarked on a journey to reimagine the European-style confections that were the foundation of Mrs. Compartes' creations. Embracing the ethos of using only the finest ingredients and handcrafting everything from scratch, Jonathan masterfully merged traditional flavor combinations with a modern gourmet infusion, delivering an extraordinary new experience.

Edible Works of Art

What initially flourished as a local artisan chocolate shop has now blossomed into a beacon of chocolate artistry, constantly pushing the boundaries of craftsmanship to forge a chocolate experience that stands unrivaled across the globe. Compartés has curated a realm of chocolate that captivates the hearts and palates of chocolate enthusiasts far and wide.


Driven by a vision to create edible masterpieces, Jonathan redefined the chocolate experience. From intricately crafted chocolates resembling precious jewels to sumptuous fruit delicacies dipped in chocolate, and decadent ganache adorned with edible gold, each creation at Compartés is a testament to gourmet artistry. This commitment to perfection extends to every meticulously handcrafted chocolate, ensuring an exquisite fusion of flavor, texture, and visual experience.
