What do you think of blueberries and chocolate together? I've been daydreaming, and that sounds like a pretty good idea to me... Will post again soon! With something more to say than this. ;)<br />

Fudge it is!<br /><br />As a company, we're run the standard gamut of taste-testing, experimenting with various flavors while perfecting the tried and true. My dad is behind pretty much all off the more interesting options we've tried, usually pushing them through with a fair amount of skepticism from the production staff (aka, the rest of the family :))<br /><br />Every once in a while, though, I will admit, he's come up with a winner.<br /><br />For our focus on fudge here, I'd like to talk about our Chocolate Licorice, one of his proudest achievements. While the prospect of chocolate and black licorice together might make you feel a little uncertain, it's become one of our most distinctive flavors!<br /><br />At shows, we like to tell people that if they like black licorice, they will like this fudge. If not, than they probably won't. Pretty easy way to tell, right?<br /><br />This June, I invite you to try our <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/featured.shtml">Chocolate Licorice fudge</a>, a true culinary triumph! ;) I'd also like to invite you to visit our table at a craft show... you can sample it there for free. <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/calendar.shtml">Check out our calendar for details</a>.Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09079591353934316137noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099459737397182559.post-24901795155221011302009-05-01T09:46:00.003-04:002009-05-01T09:54:55.279-04:00Chocolate Tasting BlissYou know what one of the best things about owning a chocolate company is? Testing our new products before they hit the shelves!<br /><br />Last night, Mom, Leah, and Naomi all worked tirelessly to make hundreds of pounds (okay, I don't know exactly how many :P) of fudge and chocolate bark for a show Dad is doing in Toronto this weekend. I was working on other projects, but I did have a rather important role to play in the kitchen... sampling our new chocolate bark recipe! :D<br /><br />We've been experimenting a bit with different recipes and other new specialty items that we're contemplating offering as standard products, and let me tell ya... I'm lovin' it! :D<br /><br />--<br /><br />If you're interested in sampling our fudge, be sure to check out our <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/calendar.shtml">events calendar</a> on our <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com">website</a> to see where we'll be appearing next!

The eggs' fudgy goodness made them a smash success! :)<br /><br />Available is either dark or milk chocolate, the eggs are solid fudge enclosed in a chocolate shell, then dusted with a smattering of appropriately springy sprinkles. Cute, no?<br /><br />The Fudge Easter Eggs are appropriate for the adult who secretly (or not so secretly) still loves holidays where they get candy, or for the kid with sophisticated taste.Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09079591353934316137noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099459737397182559.post-5585017729964086772009-04-06T20:40:00.001-04:002009-04-06T21:05:26.812-04:00Website Updates: Definitely Harder Than CrochetingAs it turns out, it's hard keeping up a website.<br /><br />However, hard as it may be, updates are being made.

(Now you tell me how that's a bad thing.) For those of you who don't want to wade through our online menu, we offer pre-assorted baskets at set prices.<br /><br />This month, we bring you the new Valentine's Day gift baskets! These are awesome--they even include some specialty items not listed on our website... currently they're only found at our local craft shows that we attend. *drumroll please*...<br /><br />Chocolate Dipped Orange Biscotti!<br /><br />They're amazing. Freshly baked and hand-dipped, even. Oh, and did I mention humongous?<br /><br />Did I also mention... we ship! All of you out-of-towners and citizens from faraway lands need not suffer. :)<br /><br /><br />***NEWSFLASH***<br /><br />The Valentine's Day gift baskets are <a href="http://sweetsomethingschocolate.com/valentine.html">now available for order online!</a>Deborah Thomsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00815168346019553569noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099459737397182559.post-56067626051802066602009-01-22T10:38:00.000-05:002009-04-06T22:14:42.143-04:00Valentine Treats are Here!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_R0LLw-Mug8M/SXiUl0uIZKI/AAAAAAAAAxs/0xok0qpef14/s1600-h/3216848634_3103d6fa88.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 278px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_R0LLw-Mug8M/SXiUl0uIZKI/AAAAAAAAAxs/0xok0qpef14/s400/3216848634_3103d6fa88.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294144739502220450" border="0" /></a><br />2009 has been an exciting year for us so far!

My ideal wedding has changed a lot over the years, but my feelings toward food has remained largely the same. Two of my favorite things--coffee and chocolate--have always figured heavily in my menu of choice. Lately, my dream wedding reception includes a full service coffee and cappuccino bar accompanied by a buffet of gourmet chocolate desserts. The table would be fully stocked with <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/fudge.html">creamy fudge</a>, delectable truffles and various chocolate-covered fruits... every chocolate fantasy you have ever entertained would be fulfilled in that buffet.<br /><br />Now, another important part of the wedding planning is <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/wedding.html">wedding favors</a>. A really good wedding favor, in my opinion, should be something your guest would be glad to receive and is preferably consumable (personally, I'm not a big fan of monogrammed knick-knacks). The perfect answer? Chocolate, of course!<br /><br />The Sweet Somethings kitchen has recently been putting a lot of time into producing chocolate wedding favors. Some of the items we're currently offering include <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/truffles.html">gourmet chocolate truffles</a>, adorable cupcakes and cookies, chocolate coconut clusters, and our most recent treat, chocolate raspberry cremes. All our wedding favors are packed in adorable little boxes with custom colors and ribbons available to suit your various wedding pallets. Sweet Somethings <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/wedding.html">custom chocolate wedding favors</a> are guaranteed to delight your guests--they go great with a good cup of coffee.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/">www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com</a>Rebekah A.

What better way, my father proclaimed, for the family to be together than for us all to work together in some sort of family enterprise? And with that, we started "the family business", a title that has referred to quite the myriad of projects.<br /><br />You may wonder what this has to do with chocolate. Well, we are a primarily female family (eleven of us to their three). Women love chocolate! All we girls one day decided to try our hand at chocolate production, since we had a couple of really good recipes. Our family was already participating in craft and trade shows around Michigan with another product, so we added a couple boxes of <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/fudge.html">fudge</a> to the table.<br /><br />Success! Our fudge was an instant hit. At that point, the entrepreneurial wheels really started turning and we began experimenting with flavors oils and nuts to make our little fudge table better and better.<br /><br />Within a year, Sweet Somethings Fudge had traveled to craft shows all over Michigan and beyond. We've never been afraid of travel, and our chocolate table has graced Home & Garden shows in many of the eastern and southern states.<br /><br />These days we've evolved some. Our name has changed slightly--we're now going by Sweet Somethings Chocolate Company--and our product base has widened considerably. We're now offering thirteen different flavors of <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/fudge.html">fudge</a>, <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/truffles.html">gourmet truffles</a>, <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate/bark.html">chocolate bark</a>, turtle pretzels (a personal favorite), and more. Not only that, but we've recently added <a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/weddingcakes.html">wedding cakes</a> and party favors to the mix.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com/">www.sweetsomethingschocolate.com</a>Rebekah A.
