Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!

I love chocolate. I especially love locally-made chocolate. It seems like, the smaller the batch and the more independent the company, the more you can taste the love in each bite!

Among my favorite chocolatiers is the Happy Chocolatier from my old stomping grounds of Acton, MA. In addition to hand-wrapping most of his decadent and diversely-flavored but universally high-quality and…well…happy chocolates, Paul McMahon and his talented team drop inspirational messages into each of their signature truffle Cubze (that’s “c-u-b-Z-E”), making them (and all who enjoy them) even happier!

In an effort to spread the happiness even further, the Happy Chocolatier will be donating 5% of all proceeds to Feeding America (each $1 of which can help feed 10 people at over 200 food banks nationwide). In addition to giving some of the profits that have been so eaten into for many independent food makers, Paul hopes to inspire others to give as well.

So if you want to bring joy to a would-be trick or treater, thank a postal worker or other neighbor or friend, or just treat yourself to a moment with more happiness than madness – all while helping the growing list of hungry people in this nation, go to www.thehappychocolatier.com and make everyone smile!
