Mission Statement: Provide everyone with an amazing and gourmet chocolate experience.
Our Story
Our journey into chocolate began over 1700 miles away in a small town in Michigan. Well, technically we did not live "in town", but in the township. In this small mining town near the Wisconsin border we developed our love for chocolate.
I consumed nearly every type and brand of chocolate ever mass produced as a child. I did have my favorites, and ones I would try to trade off for my favorites, but I did eat them all. Sacrifices, right?
As a semi-professional chocolate eater and a amateur candy taster, my childhood memories are delicious, chocolate covered moments.
Each and every chocolate flavor we make here is thoroughly taste tasted by multiple testers, before it is given two "paws up". Many flavors here need multiple tests before they are released (I personally believe the testers are just trying to get free samples). Some of our chocolates have been known to make knees buckle and hearts stop, so please use caution.
We love chocolate and would like to share our love of chocolate to the world. Chocolate is our passion, our love, and our life.

"Baby Bears" Amber and Gage
Our little helpers, who, since they are related to us, work for chocolate and hugs. Well, just chocolate. When they are not in school, these two are the janitors, maintenance, back-up cashiers and the assistants to the assistant manager.
P.S. I truly enjoy being able to work with my children. I hope they feel the same. I am proud to show them what owning and running a business entails. I tried to teach them all the behind the scenes activities it takes for a business to run smoothly.
