The Chocolate Box
We have some fabulous new chocolates and truffles that you’ll love. We have resumed featuring truffles by Missionary Chocolates from Portland, which specializes in creating truffles blended from dark chocolate and coconut milk, rather than dairy, and unique natural ingredients rarely used by other chocolatiers such as meyer lemons or ginger. We’ve also brought in lavender sea salt caramels, fig and marzipan filled chocolate truffles and cayenne infused caramels made by Lilliebelle Farms. For those of you who like their chocolates spicy and sassy, we’ve also discovered a delicious almond butter toffee blended with just a touch of jalapeno that pairs perfectly with a glass of white wine or beer. Come in and get a free sample and let us know what you think. And finally, we expect to receive a new shipment this week of incredible truffles by Coastal Mist Chocolates including canolli truffles and lemoncello white chocolates that you all fell madly in love with when we had them last. Our hours during March are Tue.-Sat. 11:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. 202 N. Water Street, Silverton
