Wicked Bold Vegan Kitchen was created by vegan chocolate entrepreneurs who want to share their healthy lifestyle.
For Dallas-area vegan chocolate entrepreneurs Deric and Brooklynn Cahill, one idea led to another. The owners of Wicked Bold Chocolate were looking for a place to expand production of their vegan chocolates, but stumbled upon a space in Flower Mound that could also work as a vegan restaurant with plant-based charcuterie and a “sober bar” with non-alcoholic craft cocktails.
“At the core of who we are, it’s absolutely about a healthy lifestyle,” Deric says. The couple, who moved to Texas from Boston in 2019, has two young children. First they went plant-based, then ditched the alcohol. Deric says he hasn’t had any alcohol in 2 months, and Brooklyn has been sober for 7 months.
The cafe will offer charcuterie boards, both savory and sweet, featuring vegan products like BE-hive pepperoni, Herbivorous Butcher deli slices, and AshaPops, which are popped water lily seeds. The Cahills also plan to source from Texas companies like Austin-based Rebel Cheese and All Y’alls Jerky. The boards will also offer an array of nuts, fruit, veggies, dips, crackers and, of course, their own chocolates. “We want to curate an experience on the other side of meat,” Deric says.
“When you think of Texas, you think of meat eaters,” Deric says. “But I’ve been really surprised at the reception we got here. The vegan community here is ... growing tremendously.” They currently sell their chocolates, which are sourced from smallholder farms in Belize, at local spots like Royal Blue Grocery and the Dallas Farmers Market.

Absolutely perfect response!
I feel your pain.

Boring, smarmy, snooty vegans; and no alcohol bars. What fun!
I have lived in Boston my whole life. I have never seen a vegan restaurant. There probably is one in Cambridge or Jamaica Plane but it is not a big thing here. I can’t imagine a vegan restaurant being successful.
Okay. So it’s a bar in Texas. Where the girls don’t look prettier at closing time. What do vegan no-booze bar patrons ride instead of a mechanical bull?
This guy will be back on booze before his wife’s restaurant flops in six months. Two months sober isn’t really anything.
“who moved to Texas from Boston in 2019”
As soon as I saw Wicked Bold I knew that!!
And the drinks are served with a big helping of self-impotance.
Excellent point.
You should see Denton.
As long as they use their own money God bless them. I wish them luck. Will it be a success? Who knows.
I like vegetables just fine, but not smothered in SMUG.
Sober cocktails and vegan chocolate?
What’s next? Sex with all your clothes on?
Yep. Local dialects are still a thing in America.
They call their charcuterie vegan, which is not what a charcuterie is.. and their non alcoholic bar a bar, which isn’t necessarily so my auto repair shop is now called a “car restaurant”.
When God rescued Daniel out of the lions den Daniel didn’t go back for his hat. I have stayed sober for 31 years by following that dictum to the letter.
