Our family would like to extend our most heartfelt thanks to all our customers from the past 2 years. You've turned to Humble Chocolates to help you celebrate important milestones, share smiles with loved ones, and satisfy sweet cravings, and we are so honoured to have been included in those moments with you.
It was a very difficult decision, but with the rising costs of our raw materials and changes in our family life, we've decided to end this sweet chapter of our life. Humble Chocolates is no longer in operation.
It's been a really wonderful journey. We learned SO much about chocolatiering, food production, packaging, nutrition label laws, marketing, kitchen certification, and a whole host of other nifty things that we didn't know before. We proved to ourselves that we COULD do it, and demonstrated to our kids that it's OK to step out of your comfort zone to try something new. And it's also OK to know when to call it a day, with no regrets, and take your learnings to a new challenge.
We also learned that Miltonians have a desire for chocolate and caramels!!! Your feedback, your referrals, and your repeat business was much appreciated. That you nominated and voted for us numerous times for the Milton Champion awards, including best chocolate shop, best customer service, and best specialty food categories just blew us away!! But thinking about raising our prices to remain sustainable didn't sit well for us, as we had always wanted our products to be accessible and affordable.
To our dear friends who were our taste testers, our cheerleaders, our sounding boards, and our guiding lights, we're so glad you were on this ride with us. We couldn't have done it with out you.
So, quite humbly, thank you.
And sorry for breaking your diet.
