Scott Kerr sits down with Maribel Lieberman, entrepreneur, chocolatier, and founder of MarieBelle New York, one of the most recognizable luxury chocolate houses. Maribel, who moved to New York City from Honduras to pursue fashion before switching to the culinary arts, opened the MarieBelle store shortly after 9/11 and quickly become a welcomed fixture in the neighborhood during a period of recovery and rebuilding. She discusses why design‑driven storytelling is at the heart of the brand, navigating the rising costs of cocoa and tariffs, and younger consumers splurging on chocolate. She also talks about what she's learned from her disciplined expansion strategy into Japan and what luxury fashion boutiques can learn about fostering emotional connections with customers. Plus: How to know when to embrace new trends.
