Chocolate ~ It's food not candy

Preferred ingredients from  farms & dairies , orchards & gardens , from artisan makers & wineries & distilleries of the Pacific Northwest &  across the globe are used to enhance the existing perfection of the chocolate . 

Gluten & Preservative Free Naturally .  Dairy Free options available .

This passion was not on our radar .  It was conceived during 'round the clock care for my old mommy & with a little help from our friends & family we found time to play & create .  And because a favorite co-worker gave me his recipe for chocolate truffle there was the medium, the inspiration for hours of trial & error & yummy tastings .  

Having taught myself everything I thought I knew about chocolate (there was & is  SO much more to know) it was time for class.  

The Chocolate Man, Bill Fredericks, introduced me to a fascinating , sensitive chemisrty that IS cacao.  

What a beautiful creation Ixcacao, the Mayan Goddess of Chocolate has given us.

Cheerfully persuaded by my kids to offer these dark delicious diversions to the world, we opened our 1st "store", a 10' x 10' tent, the Summer of 2007 at  Renton Farmers Market .  

Getting to know our farmers with their sense of humor & intelligent tolerance & respect for Mother Nature & her whims & the artisans who were transforming flora & fauna into more than simply sustenance was exciting & inspirational.  I had worked always in restaurants & this was where things felt REAL. 

We have been part of the farmers market community (& pretty much loving it) in the Greater Seattle area,  weathering whatever Mother Nature sent our way,  ever since that summer & are so very grateful for the support of our customer friends & market pals.
