Six different ArtPrize chocolate bars are now available. Each bar represents one of the six different ArtPrize neighborhoods.

The bars are made by Mary Ann's Chocolates and cost $4.95 each. Mlive.com gives us a description of each different chocolate bar.

HILLSIDE - encompasses Heritage Hill, but also many of the major medical facilities in the area, and its bar reflects that aspect. The result is a dark chocolate bar with sunflower seeds and cranberries, because it’s good for you!
THE GARDENS - for the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park venue, is a milk chocolate bar. And because gardens mean flowers, this bar has a touch of lavender along with ginger.
WESTSIDE - represents the area west of the river, which has a cultural flavor with a bar that is chipotle chili lime in dark chocolate
HEARTSIDE - part of the large downtown area with lots of restaurants, features a milk chocolate bar with honey-roasted peanuts and pretzels because it’s a great flavor combination and peanuts and pretzels are one of Mary Ann’s most popular flavors.
CENTER CITY - for downtown Grand Rapids, is a chocolate Cosmopolitan bar with an orange cranberry and a hint-of-lime dark chocolate bar to represent downtown living and nightlife.
MONROE NORTH BELKNAP - is fish and chips, but don’t make a face, This bar features gummy fish and kettle chips in milk chocolate to represent the river as well as pub food in the neighborhood.
