About Kiva Confections

Founded in 2010 by Scott Palmer and Kristi Knoblich in Oakland, California, Kiva Confections has grown from a small artisan chocolate maker into one of the most recognized and respected cannabis edibles brands in the industry. What sets Kiva apart is their relentless commitment to precision dosing — each product is tested multiple times throughout production to ensure every piece delivers exactly the experience promised on the label.

Kiva's product philosophy centers on the belief that cannabis edibles should be as carefully crafted as fine food. They source premium cacao from single-origin farms, use real fruit extracts, and partner with certified organic ingredient suppliers. Their Terra Bites (chocolate-covered blueberries and espresso beans) became iconic products that helped define the premium cannabis edibles category.

The brand has won more cannabis industry awards than any other edibles company, including multiple Emerald Cup wins, Cannabis Cup victories, and recognition from mainstream food publications. Their Camino gummies line, launched in 2019, became one of the fastest-selling cannabis products in California history.
