Chocolatey

/ˈtʃɑːkəlɪti/ adjective

Definition

Resembling, tasting like, or containing chocolate; having chocolate flavor or characteristics.

Etymology

From 'chocolate' + the informal suffix '-ey,' which creates casual adjectives. This colloquial variant is more common in advertising and informal speech than 'chocolaty.'

Kelly Says

Food marketers love 'chocolatey' because it sounds indulgent and casual in a way that 'chocolate' doesn't—the suffix '-ey' makes it feel homey and approachable rather than formal.
