We had a guest confectioner in the shop yesterday! My youngest daughter Kristen likes to come and create confections as her busy schedule allows. This time she made 2 different tasty treats.
The first she calls June Bugs! I think we'll call them chocolate dipped dates stuffed with toasted pecan halves. You can call them what you want, but they are DE-licious,and in a very limited quantity....so come and get them while you can!
After dipping the bugs/dates she made a bark and tossed names around for it as well. Here's to your Health, We call this Healthy, Nutty Fruity Healthy Treat.....
Bags of our dark chocolate bark that is topped with dried Montmorency cherries, dried blueberries, coconut and salted and toasted almonds and pepitas are now ready for purchase.

Happy 2026 everyone!!
Wow 2025 is in the record books, and my heart is so happy!! Y'all really showed the 🤎, and my chocolate table is sparce!!
Of course I took my annual trip to the beach to regroup, but WATCH OUT, I'm back and trying to make that table look better!! 😁
We've not seen the Nutty Tourist (aka the Trouble Maker) in awhile, so I started with that. If you are not familiar, it is a 72% extra dark chocolate confection filled with so many nuts....but never any peanuts! IYKYK🤣
It is made with toasted almonds, pecans and macadamia nuts. I then add some 🥥 flakes & pepitas. It is then topped with smoked Hawaiian Sea Salt.
Come and get some. It's January, so all of the calories have been removed before packaging!😉

P.S. I also made a back of Royal Hawaiian Extra Dark Chocolate Bark. It too is 72% extra dark chocolate that is topped with dried pineapple that is coated with mango sugar, macadamia nuts and toasted coconut flakes.

IT'S MARGARITA TIME!!

We have made a batch of original white chocolate Margarita Bars & Spicy Margarita Bars. But, they're already going fast, and are in limited supply. When these are gone, there won't be more until after the new year, so !!

Bonus info: Our Spicy Margarita Bar is made using Red Clay Hot Sauce Spicy Margarita Salt. And yes, we carry it in the shop!
