THE CONCEPT OF CRAFT HAS BEEN A GUIDING PRINCIPLE IN OUR LIVES FROM THE BEGINNING. AFTER HEARING ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE YOUNG AND GROWING AMERICAN CRAFT CHOCOLATE MOVEMENT, WE WERE DRAWN TO THE COMMON THREADS WE SAW IN WORKING WITH WOOD AND CRAFTING CHOCOLATE FROM BEAN. WE BECAME FASCINATED WITH A NEW CHALLENGE AND LOVED THE IDEA OF REINVENTING THE CHOCOLATE EXPERIENCE. IN 2010 WE BOUGHT SOME SMALL-SCALE EQUIPMENT AND BEGAN MAKING CHOCOLATE. THE MOST HANDS-ON APPROACH WE COULD TAKE WAS TO START WITH THE RAW CACAO. WE ARE ABLE TO SOURCE THE FINEST FAIRLY-TRADED CACAO AND PERFORM ALL THE STEPS IN-HOUSE TO TURN THE RAW INGREDIENTS INTO DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE, ALL IN OUR SMALL FACTORY IN EUREKA, CALIFORNIA. THIS ENTIRE PROCESS TAKES APPROXIMATELY THREE WEEKS TO COMPLETE BUT ALLOWS US TO MAKE SOME OF THE FINEST CHOCOLATE POSSIBLE. WE USE ORGANIC CACAO AND ORGANIC CANE SUGAR IN OUR CHOCOLATE. BY NOT CUTTING CORNERS OR TAKING SHORTCUTS IN OUR PROCESS WE ARE ABLE TO LEAVE OUT VANILLA, ADDITIONAL COCOA BUTTER OR OTHER EMULSIFIERS, IN HOPES OF CAPTURING AND HIGHLIGHTING THE SUBTLE FLAVOR NUANCES IN THE CACAO WE SOURCE FROM AROUND THE WORLD. WE HOPE YOU WILL GET AS MUCH ENJOYMENT EATING OUR CHOCOLATE AS WE DO MAKING IT." - ADAM DICK & DUSTIN TAYLOR
