Laura,

Thanks for the info on the pods.

We opened our shop in Tucson, Arizona on March 1st, just in time for the summer heat.  We are currently working hard to keep up with the demand for our easter bunnies while trying to introduce some new flavors.  You can visit our facebook page for sabino chocolates and see some o four bunnies, bon bons, etc.  The pictures of the shop are a bit dated and we have done more improvments recently.

Would love to keep in contact to share experiences as we work through our start-up

Good morning Laura

I have add a few of my chocolate logos pics!!

Hi Laura, yes I did all what you see in the pictures, I love to make logos in chocolate too I will post a few pictures soon.

You like the twist, is very simple to make them, just you need a power screw driver and a metal stick about 6" long and keep it frozen at all the times, with a small paper cone full of chocolate, pipe as you slowly turn the power gun. is fun!!! you can make four or five at one time. let me know how go!!

Cheers!!!!

Hi, lucky you, you've fell right in to the industry.. The problem here in Ireland is that its hard to find work with the artisan producers as they are mostly run by a family outfit and the big producers such as cadbury and nestle only hire factory
operatives and not chocolatiers. I also live in a rural area and have to travel far for work. Luckily the restaurant I work at allows me to make whatever chocolate desserts or gateauxs I wish so I get alot of practice in.. I have a small commercial studio kitchen at my house which I used to cater from for events and parties in the past, I now use it to practice my chocolatge work for when I will stgart making artisan chocolates for sale.
