January 2007

Thank you for your interest in DeVries Chocolate and for subscribing to the mailing list. For the time being, my on-line store is available only to people on the mailing list, through the link below. There are also links provided for more information on me and DeVries Chocolate.
I opened the on-line store to my existing mailing list just before Christmas and the response was suprisingly strong (and I'm a serious optimist). I had hoped to have a public launch at the first of the year, but it will take a week or so more to build up some stock for the that.

DeVries Chocolate is Now For Sale Online
 
Costa Rican 77


Currently there are four items available, 77%, 80%, and 84% Costa Rican and 80% Dominican. The 84% Costan Rican and the 80% Dominican are in limited supply right now and so there is a limit of one each per customer. Items will disappear from the store when all the inventory is purchased.
More 84% Costa Rican will be available at the beginning of February. Depending on how the aging goes, more Dominican will be released toward the end of Feburary to the middle of March.

Chloé Doutre-Roussel's Interview on PRI's THE WORLD
 


Lisa Mullins interviewed Chloé Doutre-Roussel on PRI's THE WORLD and asked virtually all the questions you would want to ask a chocolate expert. Broadcast in May on THE WORLD, she says some very nice things about my chocolate. The response was huge and completely overwhelmed my ability to deal with requests for information. Chloé is the author of the Chocolate Connoisseur, a must- read for the chocolate geek and the owner of the finest chocolate palate I know. You can learn more about her and chocolate at her site www.chloechocolat.com


Interview with Steve DeVries

This is a link to an interview I did with Pam Williams from the Ecole Chocolat in Vancouver. She asked some very interesting questions and it provides quite an insight on me and my chocolate journey. Her whole site is very informative. I suggest a tour of it if you have a general interest in things chocolate.





I started out trying to provide all the facts and figures from the last few years I've spent learning about chocolate, but the truth is all the verbiage is just window dressing. Chocolate is about what happens in your mouth. Don't listen to what anyone tells until you listen to your own taste buds.
Trust your mouth.
