"Bread and Peace" was the pivotal rallying cry of women textile workers in St. Petersburg, Russia on March 8, 1917, when they launched a strike to demonstrate against food shortages and World War I. Their movement catalysed the Russian Revolution, forced the Tsar's abdication, and solidified the date as International Women's Day. The early pioneers of Womens Day marched for "Bread and Peace." At JusTrufs, we carry that legacy forward by proving that when women lead, they create something that is professionally excellent, deeply personal, and propels positive journeys. The JusTrufs Journey: A Story of Resilience Our founder, Chenddyna Schae, didn't just start a business; she built a dream from a home kitchen. Balancing a degree in Hotel Administration with the demands of raising a family, only to return to her passion with even more vigour, her story mirrors the journey of many Indian women. What started as an internship at the Taj, Bombay, has evolved into a world-class boutique chocolaterie in Bangalore, today. Why Being "Women-Led" Matters to Us For us, being a women-led team isn't just a label; its our "secret ingredient." Its reflected in: Our Craftsmanship: We champion the art of handcrafted, pure chocolatefree from soy lecithin and preservatives. Our Community: We believe in "Grow Local, Buy Local." By sourcing responsibly, we support the local ecosystem, much like the women-led cooperatives that have powered Indias grassroots economy for decades. Our Spirit: From our iconic environment-friendly building in Jakkur to our interactive chocolate tours, and events floor, weve built a space that is inclusive, creative, and fueled by a team of "positive people" who handle every truffle and praline, event and service with care. This Womens Day, as we celebrate the millions of women who have paved the way for us, we at JusTrufs celebrate the modern womanthe one who balances, the one who creates, and the one who knows that the best things in life are handcrafted with love.
