About Us
Cocoa Bean is a gift and lifestyle boutique which opened in Windsor in November 2004. The shop, which can be found in a restored 19th century building, is an inspiration to anyone who walks through the doors. Elegant window displays, unique gifts plus a range of stylish homeware products makes Cocoa Bean a necessary indulgence.
Founded by Sarah Lock, the name ‘Cocoa Bean’ was inspired by her family who used to make cocoa for chocolate in the old family plantation house in St. Lucia. Over the years her keen sense of style and knack for collecting unusual items led to the creation of a range which can only be described as eclectic.
The collection includes everything from French country furniture and handmade toys to Scandinavian quilts, jewellery from Israel and exquisite local pottery. There is an indulgent variety of bath accessories from France and almost everything in the shop is for sale including the beautiful lamps and light fixtures.
“For me it is about indulging in the pleasures and comforts of life, shopping being one and chocolate being the other”! (Sarah Lock, founder of Cocoa Bean).
