We have so much to be thankful for this year. We are still open and we are still making people happy with our chocolate! We have some wonderful loyal customers, and new ones finding us every day.
We hired our temp help for the season. Tina was with us last year and she has much to be thankful for after battling breast cancer this year. Angela and Ellen are both thankful for the additional two hands in the shop, which is taking on a nice holiday glow.
What's New? Well, we added a couple new flavors:
1. Ranger Truffles. Named for the Wanakena Ranger School near Cranberry Lake, this is a cranberry truffle with white chocolate encased in dark.
2. Waddington Wintergreen. This is wintergreen cream in dark chocolate. It has a pretty white snowflake pattern on the top.
3. Mendiants. These area a French-style chocolate. A patty of milk chocolate with candied fruit nestled on top. They are very eye-catching, and taste way better than fruit cake. So eat your fruits.
I plan to try my hand at homemade marshmallows this weekend. Had to find a recipe without raw egg whites... and did. Should be fun!
For the first year, we have decided to stay open for Black Friday!!! We are even having a secret sale... well not so secret. You pick a chocolate bell from the Christmas stocking... the color foil indicates your discount at the register, 10, 15, 25 or 50 percent off. And you get to keep the bell.
And on the first weekend in December, we are celebrating our 2nd Anniversary. If you are in the area, stop in for a piece of cake (chocolate of course) and help us celebrate. We are also having a few specials that weekend as well as it is Potsdam's Super Holiday Shopping Weekend. Hope to see you all this holiday season.
