Summer is here...

...and that means I've got to increase my shipping rates. Starting June 1, I'll be shipping in insulated containers with ice packs, which means a heavier package that costs more to ship.

It also means the return of the key lime cream and coconut cream! I'm also working on a coconut-lime brittle, so I'll keep you updated, keep checking here and the website for details.

A final note, the bridal show was a great success, thank you to all the lovely brides and grooms and bride entourage who attended the show. I hope to make chocolate for all of you!

Bridal Show today

*image courtesy of cakella.com
Just a quick note to remind any blog readers in the Triad area that I'll be at the Castle McCulloch bridal show today, from 6-9pm. I'll be handing out free chocolate, and more than happy to discuss wedding favors, thank you gifts, or current events. I do believe you need to register, though it's easy enough, just call 336-887-5413 and they'll help you out.

Bacon and Chocolate, Part 2

I've discussed the pairing of breakfast meats and candy before Bacon and Chocolate, June 12, 2007. One might assume that I'd said all I had to say about it. One would be wrong...

A couple of weeks ago, I was flipping through one of my favorite blogs and came across this.. Find me that chocolate covered bacon. As an enterprising chocolatier, I couldn't let an opportunity to make somebody's food dream come true. So I wrote to the author, offering my services.

He emailed me back a week later, and I got to work. I didn't want to just send him a box full of bacon covered in chocolate, I'm too creative for that. So I put together a box with chocolate covered bacon, bacon covered caramel, and a couple of my favorite non-bacon creations. I think the results were well received...Chocolate covered bacon video. Not only did he like the chocolates, but I have the honor of being part of the very first Modern Materialist Video post!


What do you think? Should I add chocolate covered bacon to the Luca Chocolate stable of products? Let me know what you think!
