First Chocolate
Ever wonder what a ton and half of chocolate looks like? Wonder no more! We received 3000 pounds of organic chocolate from Schokinag this morning, a ton of 66% and 500 pounds each of milk and 78% dark. Ecuadoran chocolate, processed in Schokinag’s Manage, Belgium plant, shipped to Schokinag HQ in Mannheim, Germany for distribution, then to Hall’s Warehouse in South Plainfield, New Jersey, and then on to us in Boulder. (There’s a debate waiting to be had on shipping costs vs. organic benefits, but that’s a topic for another day. :-)
And no comments on the knees, please. It’s been over 100 degrees here. Don’t tell anyone, but our chocolate cooler is probably one of the best places in Boulder to hang out. It’s at 55 degrees, and now has a little bit of chocolate in it.
