Hi Tracey,
I'm a friend of MIndy Fong from Jade Chocolate and she suggested I contact you for advice on the upcoming Celebrity Food Show in Anaheim. It's my first time exhibiting there...what should I prepare for? Is it a lot more sampling than selling? Is it a profitable show or do you do it mostly for the exposure? Any feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Malena from The Xocolate Bar
Hello Tracey
was it fun at Spago, did you see a lot of movie stars?
Did you contact Greg Power, in case you lost his #310 638 8400 ext. 232 or GPower@helengrace.com
My wife has her own group at linkedin.com, in case you are interested, her group name is TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS:

Maybe you want to join the group too.
Have a happy Halloween!

Tracey,
I am ecstatic about the quality of the new ones. While my reject rate when using the old molds ranged from 20-50%--you read that right--the new molds result in about a 2% reject rate. The bars are absolutely beautiful. I would warn anybody to save their money for the injection molds from Micelli, and to avoid the other ones, from you know where, like the plague.
I'm sure that we will meet soon enough. Good luck on your mold hunt. Let me know if you have any more questions. As for me, I may have a few more questions about the temperers that you are using.
Best,
Alan

Tracey,
I shipped you two bar examples today--one new (injection) and one old (thermoform). Let me know what you think.
Hey Tracey,
How are you? Things are good here. It seems like school was a thousand years ago! Have you talked to Mona? Why is she not a member?

Life is busier than ever. My son was definitely happy to have me home! I've started going to Pilates cuz work's busy season has arrived and I need to unwind properly. I still think about your Fleur de Sel caramel...mmmm. Time for dinner, hope all's well with you.

Tracey,
I should be receiving them next week or early the week after. It takes about 6-7 weeks for the whole process. I'll keep you posted.
