Sublimely Decadent

Hand-made with love and the best ingredients

 

It’s Chocolate Season! And I’m thrilled to offer the following for your Holiday gifts, celebrations and indulgences. All my chocolates are made with the best organically sourced chocolate from fair trade cooperatives in Ecuador. To complement the chocolate I work with top quality ingredients (organic and where possible locally grown) and apply the skills I learned during my many years in Provence organizing culinary and wine tours, and working alongside expert Pâtissiers and Chocolatiers. I’m proud to be your go-to source for gifts to your family, friends, clients &/or business associates.

For large orders please get them to me by the end of November. For smaller, I am taking orders through to December 10th to ensure shipping all orders out by Tuesday December 17th. For any last minute local orders - quantity depending - I can arrange a local (Traverse City, Bellaire, Leeelanau County) drop off the week before Christmas.
