Black Dinah Chocolatiers sent me a package in the mail!!! A very sweet gift of chocolates!
I am always eager to open a box of chocolates…I know it is not very lady like…but I usually dig right in. If I don’t like my first pick, I put the leftover bit of chocolate back in the box and I try the next one…and so on.
This time, my “chocolate box opening experience” was very different. When I lifted the lid…I found myself staring at ART. Really. Art. Just looking at the modern design and shape of the two chocolates delighted me. And then, my first bite…the taste was truly indescribably delicious. Brilliant flavor and texture!!
My second impression of Black Dinah Chocolatiers confirms my first:
:: Impeccable presentation, FRESH local quality ingredients, chic, elegant, creative little bites of originality…with just the right amount of sass. This chocolatier makes Maine proud!! These lovely chocolates are a wedding detail that your family and friends will be sure to remember! ::
The cherry on top: the prices are completely reasonable with no minimum order. example: 1 Chocolate in a glassine envelope with a personalized message, name and/or date – $2.50 each (sample in photo above) OR a 2-piece box with a ribbon – $5!!! Check out Black Dinah Chocolatiers’ website for a detailed list of products and prices.
I can only think of a handful of times when I have tasted something so incredible that it has burned itself into my memory…I will NEVER be able to forget the scrumptious hand-cut caramel, sprinkled with Maine sea salt…and I am afraid that my caramel craving will probably never be completely satisfied again…unless…(note to my family and friends: for every holiday from now until forever…can you just give me a box of handmade chocolates from a remote island in Maine? hint. hint.) ~audra

bio: Kate & Steve
|
|
|
“Two decades in kitchens from California to Maine has taught Kate lots about food and farms and the power of locally supported agriculture and small business. Mostly it’s taught her that things just taste better when they’re fresher. And Steve has learned that he’s happiest working and thinking in and for small communities. A self-proclaimed “jack of all trades,” his varied jobs and experiences (from owning a computer business to positions in town government to building houses to sterning on a lobster boat) lend infinitely to his creative can-do attitude regarding… well, just about everything.
The idea of making truffles on a wind-swept island off the coast of Maine was just random enough to appeal to us four years ago when Kate started studying chocolate. The idea of opening a funky, slightly urbane café in which to sell them at the edge of a quiet island forest was even more random—and therefore even more appealing. With Steve’s talent at business and creative problem solving and Kate’s gift with food and presentation, it sounded like just the business for us.”
As seen in Maine Maven, Gourmet Magazine, The Nibble, SlashFoods 1 & 2, Maine food & Lifestyle, Working Waterfront, Boston Globe, The Maine Mag…and countless others! |
