Dean’s Beans:
Java Drops
Dean’s Beans has made the perfect tidbit to go with that cup of coffee: chocolate-covered coffee beans! They’re terrific by themselves, in a candy bowl, or decorating desserts like ice cream (it’s time to retire the maraschino cherry), cakes and cupcakes.

Lake Champlain:
Organic Chocolates
If your chocolate-lover eats organic, they’ve probably tried Dagoba. Now, introduce them to the new line from Lake Champlain. European-smooth and creamy, it’s a very different style from the more rustic Dagoba. Both are wonderful, but variety is the spice of life. This tasting box provides a sampling of all the organic flavors: plain Dark and Milk plus Dark Spicy Aztec and Milk Sea Salt & Almonds.

24 Pieces
$18.00
