Who is Jude?
Jude is one of the absolute keys to our success. We consider her to be a coveted secret ingredient, and without question she gives us a big edge in the world of Chocolate. And well, if we told you who she really is, you wouldn’t believe us… but here goes.
Traveling the globe in search of the finest Chocolates, Jude tracks down extraordinary, remarkable works of art that will melt in your mouth. She has made a life-long study of knowing what it takes to create the most exotic, delectable, mouthwatering chocolates made by world-renowned chocolatiers… many who exhibit their work at the annual Chocolate Shows in Paris and New York. Although chocolate has been around for over 4000 years, it’s only in the last two hundred years that chocolatiers have been elevated to the status of artists.
Actually Jude is quite small in stature, has black shinny eyes, and she speaks with an unusual accent. She’s often seen wearing an apron with pockets full of goodies that smell so wonderful. And yes, she does in fact have soft gray hair. Some say they have caught a glimpse of a tail at the hem of her skirt.
Make no mistake, Jude is an accredited authority on the subject of chocolate. And that’s why we have dedicated this portion of our site to sharing her expertise with you, our most valued advocates. Here, you can read about what makes our featured chocolates so special… firsthand from Jude! And you will learn about the myriad of steps it takes to transform these magical seed pods into the most unforgettable and tasty treasures, that are shipped right to your door!
