Back to work

Today was the first day of school, so back to work for me. I am pleased with the feedback I have gotten on the website. I am getting inquiries already, just from the photos, which is encouraging. It is hard for me to say that I am not really up and running yet, as I have been at this since the spring. It will all come together when it is time.

So, what's new with Cocoa Nouveau? At this moment, nothing at all. I am getting some box samples (hopefully this week), and naming my chocolate; which I must say is far more difficult than I had anticipated. Most places that I have been to just have flavors as the names, but a colleague of mine, Daniel of Chocolat by Daniel at www.chocolatbydaniel.com, has these really wonderful names and descriptions. So, I borrowed his idea. I think he has a second career as a romance writer.

I have been busy making birthday cakes, and as proof that you can paint with chocolate, you know who you are: (These were not all made recently!)
