About Us

This has been the driving force behind us since 2001, when, in a bold project, we decided to place a product on the shelves of stores aimed at gastronomy that would simplify the molding of artisanal chocolate: the three-part mold, composed of two rigid parts and one flexible part, popularly known as the 'silicone mold.'

Our story began when Mr. Wilson Stracanholi observed his mother, Adoração Garcia Stracanholi, affectionately known as Dona Dora, who produced chocolates at home to help with the family income. Observing the production process, Mr. Wilson, trained in Electromechanics, thought about how to help his mother make chocolate molding easier and faster, as she used simple chocolate molds, known as 'acetate molds.'

In 1998 he finalized the project and patented what is now popularly known as 'silicone molds.' With this revolutionary product developed, Mr. Wilson applied his knowledge to build his own machinery, set up a small production facility in just 20m², and with the support of his wife Elaine, began producing molds that made his mother’s work much easier and could also help others seeking alternative income.

In January 2001, the BWB brand was born. Today, we are market leaders (South America, Central America, and Europe) in the development, manufacture, and distribution of molds for artisanal chocolate molding.

Edilson Stracanholi (deceased in 2014), Mr. Wilson's brother, was for many years the designer responsible for new product launches, and he is also honored in our project and development center.

What does BWB mean? The brand name is a tribute from Mr. Wilson to his children: Bianca, William, and Bruno, who, along with Mr. Wilson and his brother Anderson, form the company’s management team.
