Conrad the Contortionist Pineapple Chews
Soft pineapple chews wrapped in creamy cashew milk chocolate.
Conrad the Contortionist combines bright pineapple flavour with smooth plant-based chocolate to create something nostalgic, playful and unexpectedly delicious. Sweet, fruity and slightly tropical, these chewy treats feel both familiar and a little different from traditional chocolate confectionery.
Made with transparent-trade Dominican cacao and creamy cashew chocolate, they deliver a rich finish that balances the sweetness of the pineapple perfectly.
Why we chose this
We love products that feel joyful.
Conrad brings together fruit, chocolate and a little nostalgia in a way that feels unmistakably New Zealand. The pineapple flavour is familiar, while the creamy cashew chocolate makes it feel more grown-up and considered.
These are the sort of sweets we imagine shared after dinner, tucked into a gift parcel or enjoyed alongside a cup of coffee in the afternoon.

About Wonderland Chocolate
Wonderland Chocolate is a small Wellington chocolate maker creating playful plant-based treats from their factory in Lyall Bay.
Founded by Kate after struggling to find genuinely delicious dairy-free chocolate, Wonderland combines traditional confectionery, thoughtful ingredients and a sense of fun. Their chocolates are made using transparent-trade cacao and handcrafted in small batches on the Miramar Peninsula.
The name itself comes from Wellington’s original Wonderland amusement park, which once stood in Miramar and brought rides, fireworks and entertainment to the peninsula in the early 1900s. That sense of joy, nostalgia and delight continues to influence the brand today.
At The Minimal, we particularly love that Wonderland feels both local and unexpected. Their chocolates are made just a few kilometres from our own home, bringing together beautiful ingredients, playful packaging and the kind of treats that make people smile.
