Yesterday quietly marked the 18th anniversary of Choklat.
..and I wasn't there.

On the 8th day of the 8th month of the 8th year I opened the doors for the first time like 08/08/08 meant something. Back then I had no idea that my 'little business' would touch so many people in so many positive ways.

Instead of being present to greet customers and celebrate the milestone, yesterday I sat in a canoe on a remote mountain lake all by myself and spent the day in reflection.

My creations have brightened the days of over 2 million people. Wow. Just... Wow.

I have given close to 1,700 talks on craft chocolate to more than 25,000 people.

I have shared my knowledge and recipes in various online forums thousands of times. Today craft chocolate makers all over the world use small batch roasting techniques that I developed and shared publicly 20 years ago.

I have called people out with the unbridled voracity of a pitbull with a vocabulary when they publish bu****it online with the intent to entice the public to 'drink their Koolaid'.

Even after 18 years I am still paving the way for other craft chocolate makers - this time as the first chocolate maker in Canada to use Tagatose In the manufacture of a diabetic friendly chocolate.

My creations consistently win or place in the top 3 of any competition we enter.

Choklat has quietly donated over $250,000 worth of products and services to local grassroots organizations.

18 years ago I set out, whether good or bad, to right a wrong and bring clarity in the food industry to what chocolatiers call "making chocolate".
..and after 2 heart attacks, investing my life's savings, weathering Covid, surviving the cannabis meltdown, successfully defending the company from a predatory investor, and dealing with 100's of personal attacks on social media I can confidently say I have achieved what I set out to do: make a difference in forever changing an industry.

If I'd made one single different decision 20 years ago, today I'd probably be retired instead of tired.
Pfffft! Who am I kidding???

I'm eating choklat every day and having a blast!

Hold my Tim's. The first 18 years was just the warm up!

Happy Birthday Choklat!

Recently, Microsoft implemented significantly stricter email filtering policies. As a result, many legitimate businesses such as ours have reported delivery problems to Hotmail, Outlook and Live email addresses. The emails are no longer being sent to a junk folder. They are simply being refused and bounced back to the sender (us).

This is why many of our customers have reported not receiving copies of their receipts or order updates as it progresses through our system.

This is completely bu****it. Imagine if Canada Post started indescriminately discarding mail they thought wasn't important to you!

In order to continue providing exceptional service, this afternoon we sent a text message to all of our customers with Hotmail and Outlook addresses on file with us, asking to replace their existing email with one from a different provider (Google, GMail, Yahoo, Telus, Rogers, Shaw are all fine).

If you have a Hotmail or Outlook or Live address with us, please visit the following page and replace your email address with a different one. Failure to do so may result in you not receiving updates on your order status.

Any company that charges you more than $10 for a shaker cup is ripping you off.

We noticed that retailers charge insane prices for what is essentially an adult sippy cup with a whisk. That's not right, so we did better! Our shaker cup is no different than anybody else's. It holds 600ml, is BPA free, comes with a wire whisk, and a loop for you to hook it onto your bag or backpack.

The big differences? Ours costs just $7.50, AND it tells everyone you support a local business!

These are the perfect size for one of our single serve smoothies!

Every celebration deserves a memorable finishing touch. Whether you're planning a wedding, bridal shower, garden party, anniversary, corporate event, or intimate dinner, our handcrafted luxury truffles transform every place setting into a beautiful gift your guests will truly appreciate.

Choose from elegant gift boxes filled with 3 or 4 handcrafted truffles, wrapped in your choice of stunning foil colours to complement your event's theme or décor. Thoughtful, sophisticated, and delicious, they're the perfect way to thank your guests with something they'll actually enjoy. Contact us to create custom favours that are as unforgettable as your special occasion.

Luxury chocolate isn't found in a grocery store or drug store.

Here at Choklat, every truffle is handcrafted to order in small batches using only the finest ingredients money can buy. Exceptional chocolate, fresh cream, premium nuts, real fruit, and the world's finest flavourings are transformed into exquisite confections by our skilled team, who believe every detail matters.

Every order is assembled one truffle at a time because true luxury cannot be rushed, automated, or mass produced.

Freshly made. Beautifully presented. Unforgettable.
..and all about you.

MMMMMMM.......

The brownies we make here at Choklat are, fudgy, topped with real ganache and if you don't eat one in the next five minutes you'll regret every life decision you've ever made.

True Story.
