Blending Passion and Profession: The Inspiring Journey of Priyanka, Client Engagement Manager and Chocolatier

In a world where we're often told to "pick a lane," Priyanka - Client Engagement Manager at Hakkoda and artisanal chocolatier - never saw why she had to choose. Why not both? Why not excel in tech while crafting indulgent chocolates that tell stories of their own?

At BOT Consulting, that’s not just possible—it’s encouraged.

Here, people aren’t defined by titles alone but by the richness of their experiences, the risks they’ve taken, and the dreams they continue to chase. Priyanka’s journey proves that you don’t have to compartmentalize your life to succeed. Sometimes, the future of work is built not in towering offices but in spaces where your identity feels at home.

The Birth of a Chocolate Dream

Priyanka’s love for chocolate-making began with a spark of inspiration from a friend who was a chocolatier.

“I had assumed that making chocolate was something only large companies could do,” she admits. But witnessing her friend’s small-batch creations ignited a curiosity that soon turned into an obsession. She found a mentor, immersed herself in the craft, and discovered the magic of small-batch chocolate-making—where quality, freshness, and creativity take center stage.

Today, her chocolates aren’t just treats—they’re personalized experiences. Clients undergo a one-time chocolate palette consultation, after which Priyanka surprises them with bespoke flavors tailored to their tastes.

“Before placing an order, clients notify us when they’re ready, and we take creative liberty to craft flavors that align with their profiles,” she explains.

Coming Home to Jaipur—with Purpose

For Priyanka, returning to Jaipur meant reconnecting with her roots while embracing her creative side. “I came back to be close to family—and to explore my passion for chocolate-making,” she says. BOT Consulting gave her the space to do both.

She joined the company with a clear vision: to grow professionally while nurturing something personal.

“Here, I feel supported in every part of who I am. BOT fosters a culture of trust, balance, and growth—and that makes all the difference.”

Where Passion and Profession Coexist

At first glance, tech and chocolate-making seem worlds apart. But for Priyanka, they share an unexpected synergy.

“Chocolate-making is a scientific process requiring precise temperature control to achieve specific textures,” she says. “Using technology to derive recipe ratios and adhere to quality standards makes the activity meditative—it lets me forget the stresses of my regular work.”

BOT Consulting’s culture of trust and empowerment has been instrumental in helping her balance both passions.

“BOT Consulting fosters a culture of trust by encouraging employees’ to pursue their passion,” she shares. “This approach leads to increased creativity, innovation, and engagement. By valuing diverse talents, the company promotes personal and professional growth and work/life harmony.”

A Sweet Contribution to a Big Milestone

When asked to create handmade chocolates for our Quarter End Party, Priyanka didn’t hesitate.

“Handmade chocolates add a personal, artisanal touch to any celebration,” she says. “They symbolize warmth, hospitality, and new beginnings.”

Her selection of flavors tells a story:

  • Hazelnut Macchiato – A nod to coffee lovers, blending cold brew ganache with roasted coffee beans.
  • Pistachio Rose in Raspberry Chocolate – A luxurious fusion of Middle Eastern and Persian influences.
  • Carrot Cake Caramel – A nostalgic, comforting flavor reminiscent of home.

Each flavor reflects something about her journey and the spirit of the BOT team.

Advice for Women in Tech and Beyond

As someone thriving in both tech and entrepreneurship, Priyanka shares honest advice for women looking to break boundaries: “Own your journey with confidence and resilience.”

Priyanka’s story is a powerful reminder that career growth doesn’t always require leaving one’s roots behind.

“Life shouldn’t become a never-ending quest for success where one forgets the way back home,” she says. “Cities like Jaipur are evolving, offering exciting professional avenues without compromising quality of life. The real success lies in creating a fulfilling career without losing sight of what truly matters—family, community, and belonging.”

For her, BOT Consulting has made this balance possible.

She also hopes the industry continues to evolve—through inclusion, mentorship, and equal opportunities.
