This February 2017 photo shows Chocolatier Syovata Edari with one of her products in Madison, Wis. Candy maker Mars Inc. is suing Edari over chocolates she is selling under a name the company argues is 'confusingly similar' to its cocoa extract supplements called CocoaVia. Edari said Tuesday, April 4, 2017, she picked her brand name because 'Vaa' was her father's nickname for her as a child. She said it's common sense that what she's making are mousses, caramels, and ganaches, not health supplements and that the lawsuit is 'trademark bullying'.
