About this listen

Chocolate that replaces your moisturizer? We’re listening.

In this episode of Open Wide, we talk with Nancy Byrne, the inventive founder of Gabriela Chocolates and Cacao Bella, who combined her love of chemistry, pastry, and beauty to create a collagen-infused chocolate that helps smooth skin, reduce fine lines, and even protect from UV damage. From the suburbs of Chicago to her chocolate lab in North Venice, Florida, Nancy’s story is a masterclass in curiosity, reinvention, and sweet science.


This is chocolate for women who want beauty with brains.

Nancy reveals how her formula uses bioactive collagen peptides, astaxanthin, and cocoa extract to help rebuild skin elasticity — and how a midlife pivot turned into a thriving beauty brand. It’s science meets self-care meets dessert, with a generous dash of laughter and “you’ve got to be kidding me” moments. If you’ve ever wished skincare could taste this good, this episode is your permission slip to indulge.
