I’m a lover of anything sweet. Growing up in small town Algona, IA, it was hard to find a specialty shop that would tame my soulful desire for chocolate. Over the years, and after re-locating to Omaha, NE, I came across a few chocolate businesses, but couldn’t find a shop that had quality customer service as well as a premium hand-crafted product. Thinking back to my hometown, I knew people, no matter their location, craved a sweet alternative to grocery store chocolate and baked goods. My friends and family knew me as a natural baker with a passion for food, so they encouraged me to pursue my dream in the culinary arts. After refining my skills, I opened a business whose goal is to touch people’s lives and make them feel loved and appreciated—all through the products we offer. Hence, The Chocolate Season was born, a place I hope you come to know and love for our friendly service and decadent creations. If you ever need anything, please drop me a line, I’d love nothing more than to get to know my future customers and friends.

New & Exciting?!

I was able to experience a couple things this last week that were "New & Exciting!" I had the honor of "escorting" my sister Sara to her very last clinical in Texas. We met up with her friend Tara (fellow PT) and we caravaned to Oklahoma City. We spent the night and then finished the looooong journey to Abiline. Sounds like a smooth ride right? Well...there was one bump in the road.
Being 3 girls stuck in cars driving, we saw on the horizon a Dairy Queen sign...and had to stop. Pulled into a small town DQ and after talking a bit, we realized Tara's car was still running...and was locked. uh-oh. So after a call to the local police, we waited in the parking lot....sang the blues, played the guitar, sara hopped on her bike...you know, all the usual stuff you do when waiting for a locksmith. After a huge locksmith fee (poor Tara...) we got back on the road, blizzards in tow. *yum*
Once we arrived, my visit consisted of grocery shopping, a pizzeria, a southern Baptist church and an airplane delay...twice.
But a big "Thanks " to my two PT girls...I had tons of fun and wish you both luck in the next 8 weeks! :0)

Now, the second "New & Exciting" event this week....Artisan Marshmallows!!! These plush puffs of fun are made from all-natural ingredients and have been pre-released just for Easter. Our classic Vanilla Bean marshmallows are half-dipped in white chocolate, tinted with bright Easter colors...fun to nibble on yourself or stick in a loved one's Easter Basket.

Read the full description and see these sweet puffs here!
Special for March, the full line of flavors won't appear till the end of May...so snatch them up and try one before they're gone :)

I hope you all find something "New & Exciting" this upcoming week to spark your imagination or make a new memory...I sure did!

It looks like you had a fun trip to TX! :) It would be really cool if you would be able to bring some samples of your new treats when you are home for Easter (hint-hint!) Love You!
