Come with me and you’ll be

There is no life I know
to compare with beer and chocolate pairings
Living there you’ll be free
to discover sweet harmony

Oh hey. Hi. Guess What?
Chocolate and Coffee Fest has an online market space where you can find lovely bundles like these that offer goodies from many makers at a great price!
This is a great chance to support local makers now for your holiday gift giving. Please consider checking it out. This was supposed to be a huge live event and was unfortunately (though understandably) cancelled due to Covid.
Even if Chocolate and Coffee aren't you're thing, please consider sharing the word! (I imagine whoever reads this is at least a chocolate lover, right?!?)
Us mini business owners aren't kidding when we say we do a happy dance for each little order (my song of choice last night was Fergalicious). So help out your local businesses with this wrapping up of the year. Goodness knows we all appreciate it 😚
Xoxo,
Your friendly neighborhood chocolate maker
Just go to www.chocolateandcoffeemarket.com to see the magic.

Susan and Jeff are the heart and soul of bean to bar chocolate in Sonoma county! They will wrap up our Father's day session sharing recipes that dad will LOVE! repost
Run a successful restaurant for 16 years in Healdsburg ✔️Sell it to ✔️Move to Baja Sur, Mexico, to work by the beach✔️Fall in love with the intoxicating flavor of Mexican cocao beans and start your own chocolate company? CHECK. Meet chefs and serial entrepreneurs, Jeff and Susan Mall of who truly have an incredible zest for the very best in food and in life -- and sharing it back with the community. .
“Susan and I are both trained chefs who owned Zin Restaurant & Wine Bar in Healdsburg for almost 16 years. We sold Zin at the end of 2014 to Dustin Valette. His restaurant, Valette, is a shining example of how restaurants are pivoting during this tough times. After selling Zin, we moved to El Pescadero, Baja Sur, Mexico to work as chefs at boutique hotel on the beach in the middle of nowhere. While living and working in Mexico, we discovered Mexican Cacao (cocoa beans), and the flavors of real Mexican chocolate. Through trial & error, assisted by our Mexican coworkers, we started making our own chocolate. As chefs, a passion for food has always been central to our lives. Working in Mexico extended the passion to quality cacao & chocolate. After 1 1/2 years of living in Mexico we moved back to Healdsburg and continued to make chocolate. In Latin, Volo means ‘want or desire’, and we felt it was a perfect name for our company," shares Jeff.
The desire to push forth despite the pandemic, isn't lost on Volo and they're appreciative of the community coming together. Not surprisingly, the demand for their chocolate continues to be in high demand. As Jeff observes, "It has been amazing to see our community pull together to support each other. , , and have featured our chocolate in gift baskets and promoted us on social media. There has been a real effort in Healdsburg and the rest of Sonoma County to market & support local producers. We have also seen a huge increase in our online sales.”

Erin from will be taking over the festival airwaves tomorow, June 20th from 3-3:30pm EST. She has an incredible Father's day bundle that it's never too late to send to Dad! indi chocolate is collaborating with several local artisan makers to make Dad's favorite things reimagined. repost Why do we care so much about the source and origin of our beans and why should you care?
With over a decade of sourcing experience, we've found that great, sustainable practices by cacao farmers result in better flavors in our chocolate.
makes all our bean to bar chocolate in the heart of Seattle's iconic with only three ingredients: the beans we source, a little cocoa butter, and some organic sugar. .
We don't use vanilla to mask or hide off flavors because we don't need to. Our carefully selected and short ingredient list is the basis for our great flavor.
We care that our farmers interplant taller trees and crops around and bellow the cacao because it is better for the environment, better for the family's financial health and family nutrition, and gives us delightful, complex flavors that makes our chocolate a "journey on the tongue."
We've even noticed that sustainably grown cacao can be louder than less sustainable plantation style planting due to the diverse bird populations living and singing amongst the cacao.
We care about how our famers ferment and dry our beans because this helps us bring out the wonderful flavors of the wonderful cacao they grow and harvest.
Spending time on cacao farms with our amazing farmers teaches us so much and we have been honored to get to know them, their farms and their families.
We pay well above Fair Trade and organic prices for our beans and we enjoy watching our customers savor our chocolate.
We care about the people who grow our cacao and all the people who help us every step of the way.
We thank you for your support and appreciate your business.♥️
