Stella Huang's Misdeed

Court orders the former singer to compensate Awfully Chocolate for her misdeeds


Singaporean singer-turned-businesswoman Stella Huang has been ordered to pay NT$1.74 million (S$76,000) in damages to chocolate chain Awfully Chocolate.

A Taipei district court ruled that she had violated terms in her franchisee contract and flouted competition laws.

Naughty, naughty Stella did not want Awfully Chocolate to check her accounts.

She must have kept some of the profits to herself.

Then she ended the business. A similarly-themed label Black as Chocolate was later opened by her.

Awfully Chocolate sued Stella for ending the contract prematurely, alleging she underreported profits and leaked trade secrets.

Authorities found her guilty and ordered her to pay damages.
