She doesn’t yet have a website, but her store is a fantastic chocolate adventure Duffy’s Confections in Astoria, OR. I think shes’ going to be at duffysonline.com

Deans Sweets in Portland Maine makes a mean truffle. I tried the ginger flavor the other day and it was really yummy- though my favorites are the ones with a little fire, like the cayenne flavored ones.

Try the fabulous toffee at Hollingworth Candies on State Street in historic downtown Lockport, IL
A must visit when in Vienna – I’ve also ordered; they shipped to a friend here in the U.S.
Sacher Confiserie
Although we follow you on Twitter for business purposes, we take a little time to acknowledge the importance of chocolate in our own lives! Ever tried ‘Chocolate by the Bald Man’ in NYC? Best ever!
We are considering attending your seminar in Atlanta in July for more info on the 3/50 project…Absolutely LOVE this idea, especially these days. Is there a registration process for your Atlanta speaking engagement? We look forward to hearing more…any advice, tips, etc you can offer is greatly appreciated!
Attendance at the Atlanta seminar is free of charge, but you must have a market badge to enter. Please visit AmericasMart.com for information. Hope to see you there!

You really must try Roscar Chocolates from beautiful, historic Bastrop, Texas…they are the BEST…www.roscar.com
Hi there Cinda,
Great to meet another chocolate lover AND advocate for a healthy community (business or otherwise!).
Check out Alma chocolates in Portland, OR if you ever get a chance or for a simple, easy to find option: Dagoba new moon bar (74% cacao) is awesome!
Thanks for the great posts ,
Rebecca
Please take a peek at MY website: flour girl desserts company
Some chocolate, some not, but “it’s all good.” I might even be coerced into sending ya some samples.
Small business owners rule, and hopefully they will someday be BIG business owners!
I highly recommend the chocolate truffles from Lorrie at Coco Moon in wonderful Downtown Brainerd Mn!
You should check out Gearhart’s, handmade in Charlottesville, Va. They also just opened a store in Richmond, Va. My favorite chocolates in the world, with interesting, subtle flavors mixed in (like zinfandel, or chiles, or ginger, etc.)
Love what you’ve made with the 3/50 Project.
When driving our kids to camp we discovered Marie’s Candies in West Liberty, Ohio. Located inside an historic old train depot, they give free samples. My favorite: the assorted darks. My husband’s favorite: raspberry caramel. Definitely bricks and mortar I would miss if they disappeared. I entered your website because of my interest in 350.org — while not what I expected I will share it with others and hope both 350 projects achieve their ends, bringing a better world all the way around. Thank you.
Richardson Choclates in Deerfield, Mass-wowzer!! If you visit here I will be sure you get a box of your very own!

Compliments of my mother-in-law, my family and I just tried the buttery popcorn toffee from Poco Dolce located in San Francisco 94107. Wow! Those are fantastic. Try ‘em.
Here’s two recommendations for you:
First, Christopher Elbow Artisanal Chocolates in Kansas City, MO. Amazing little works of art.
Second, Rogue Chocolatier made in Minneapolis, MN. As owner/creator Colin Gasko describes it, he “source the finest cacao and cleans, roasts, winnows, grinds, refines, conches, tempers, molds, and packages it” himself.
