Early life and education

Chloe Kay Coscarelli is the daughter of filmmaker Don Coscarelli.[4] Chloe Coscarelli was born in Los Angeles, California, and grew up in the nearby city of Pacific Palisades. She is a graduate of UC Berkeley, where she discovered her love for cooking.

Career

A summer internship at Millennium, a gourmet vegan restaurant located in San Francisco, led to a course of study at the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City. Coscarelli was a contestant in Cupcake Wars, her vegan cupcakes garnering her first prize. She became the first vegan to win a culinary competition on television and was named to the 2017 Class of 30 Under 30 by Forbes.[5]

From 2020-2022, Whole Foods partnered with Coscarelli to create prepared vegan holiday meals for Thanksgiving.[6]

In 2022, Club Med also partnered with Coscarelli to add vegan meals "at all eight of its all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean."[7]

In 2023, Tasting Table named Coscarelli as one of the "21 Plant-Based Chefs You Need To Know,"[8] and VegNews listed her as one of the "37 Creative Chefs Crafting the Future of Vegan Food."[9]

By Chloe

In mid-2015, Coscarelli partnered with ESquared Hospitality to open the vegan fast casual restaurant By Chloe[10] (stylized by CHLOE) on Bleecker Street in the West Village of New York City.[11] By 2017 the chain comprised five locations in Brooklyn and Manhattan,[10] with additional locations in Los Angeles, Providence, and Boston.[12] In July 2017, Coscarelli was forced out by ESquared in an arbitration award after she filed suit in 2016 over control of the company.[13] In December 2020, By Chloe filed for bankruptcy.[14]

In 2021, it was acquired by "a consortium of investors that already had stakes in the company," and rebranded as "Beatnic."[15] [16]

CHLOE

In July 2024,Coscarelli announced the opening of a new vegan restaurant named CHLOE in Greenwich Village, New York City. The new establishment is located at the original By Chloe site on Bleecker Street. This follows a legal dispute with her former parent company, ESquared Hospitality LLC, which led to her departure from By Chloe in 2017.[17]

Works

In 2012, she published her first cookbook, Chloe's Kitchen, followed by Chloe's Vegan Desserts in 2013, Chloe's Vegan Italian Kitchen in 2014, and Chloe Flavor in 2018.[18] Chloe's Vegan Desserts was named one of the 16 best vegan cookbooks for 2023 by Food & Wine,[19] and VegNews listed both Chloe's Kitchen and Chloe’s Vegan Desserts as "Top 100 Vegan Cookbooks of All Time" in 2024.[20] [21]
