0 Notes & Comments

Our full holiday offerings will be available soon (and yes, Stollen is definitely back!).  In the meantime, we thought we’d share one of the in-shop specials - Chef wanted to have something a little different this year, possibly different in packaging or display.  As it happens, the wife of our regular Zorko electrician (hi Andy!) is the glass artist and educator, Melissa Misoda

This ended up being a great connection to have, as after a few phone calls we have a lovely series of individually made blown-glass bowls.  They are all approximately of the same size, but no two are completely alike.  Colors include blues, garnets, violets and purples, with free-form designs ranging from a somewhat tortis-shell pattern, to flowing stripes and striations.  They are then packaged with a generous portion of our own confections.  Given the limited number that we have, they are only available in shop, and not by pre-order or special order.

Artists and artisans come from a wide variety of fields, and we’re happy to have found a way to support a local artist and her craft while also continuing to present something unique for our customers.  For those of you who like glass work but might not be into chocolate, there’s a link to Melissa’s Etsy site in her web-pages.

Have a great Wednesday everyone!
