Chocology is proud to present another article by Meaghan Sugrue. She is in France working on her studies in food science. We are proud to have Meaghan on our team. Thank you Meaghan for keeping us up to date on all you are learning in France!
Dear Chocology readers,
As I sit here at my desk savoring some delicious Belgian dark chocolate a friend brought home from her holiday in Brussels, I think of the incredible journey across continents that this treat probably took to become melt-in-your-mouth gold. Just recently, I discovered one of my classmates, Raphael, a friend from Ghana, had worked in the chocolate industry. As a quality manager, he was responsible for evaluating cocoa butter, cocoa powder, cocoa liquor and several other cocoa products to make sure these commodities were uniform and optimal quality for the industries and consumers they were sold to. Hearing this story briefly, I knew I had to learn more from him about the chocolate industry from the ground up.
We agreed to meet later to talk chocolate and Ghana. During our conversation, I quickly realized how truly global the chocolate industry is and how for Ghana cocoa is more than a commodity but a keystone enterprise and source of national pride. The first thing Raphael told me about working in the cocoa industry was how in demand cocoa products were. Most Ghanaian cocoa is grown and processed in Ghana and then shipped to Europe and the Western world where it is modified further or sold directly as the chocolate you may have enjoyed this past Halloween. Upon further explanation, I realized that cocoa is like oil or electricity, purchased ahead of time in mass quantities, not an investment but an essential. Not only that, but chocolate is integral to Ghana, considered a source of national pride. On February 14th, when most of the world scrambles to impress their significant other, Ghana celebrates National Chocolate Day. Here stores proudly sell chocolate saved from foreign buyers for a celebration of national and economic unity. However, even this day is subject to international demand, as there have been years where chocolate was sold out, come February 14th.
I also learned cocoa butter is in high demand within the cosmetics industry, containing compounds vital to anti-aging creams. This also made me aware of how unique and efficient cocoa processing is, where each component of the coco bean has a specific and valuable use. As we continued our chat, I learned that in Ghana the Cocoa industry is one of the most regulated ones, where the federal government funds progressive research, subsidizes crop prices and provides farmers with proper training to grow cocoa beans, making sure they are well off and able to sustain the industry for generations to come.
When Ralph and I finished our conversation, I asked him how he felt about being in France and seeing a renowned chocolate industry, knowing much of the raw material may have come from Ghana. He said he felt elated. As someone who has never been to Africa, I felt the same way, finally understanding the dynamic story behind each and every chocolate thoroughly.

This past Sunday, Chocology had the opportunity to be one of the five sponsors of the FantaSea Fest at the Long Island Aquarium. Having been long time members and fans, Chocology’s participation in this event was an honor. With both indoor and outdoor exhibits, along with many interactive experiences, the Long Island Aquarium is an adventure the entire family will enjoy exploring together any time of year.
The FantaSEA Fest is a special event, set up to combine our love of sweets with the wonder of marine life and learning. What could be better? Included with each admission ticket, aquarium guests had the opportunity to try out local sweets and chocolates as they strolled through exhibits and learned about marine life. Chocology had the pleasure of sharing our Art of Tasting with many of the aquarium guests. It’s always nice to be reminded to slow down and enjoy the experiences that come our way.
In an effort to infuse chocolate into the marine life experience, Chocology created a chocolate covered scavenger hunt for aquarium goers to have fun and learn with. Each participant (32 families in total) set out on an adventure to find ten Chocology signs hidden around the Aquarium. Each sign held clues that would help them in completing their form for a prize. Combining chocolate with the learning process has always been one of our top priorities. What a sweet way to learn!
Once the form was complete, hunters ran back to the Chocology booth and turned in their completed Scavenger Hunt form. Everyone who turned in the form was entered to win our scrumptious basket of Chocology's award winning Fat Ass Fudge, just in time for the holidays. Congratulations to the Couch family, who not only completed the scavenger hunt but also won the basket!
Another area of interest at the FantaSea Fest was the Kids Coloring Zone. Our own Madeline Johnson, Assistant (to Managing Director) and Chief Creative Director of Chocology Kids (and daughter of Linda Johnson), created coloring pages for the young aquarium attendees. Madeline’s Merfolk coloring sheets were a hit and a great way for 47 little (and big) ones to take a break from all of the festivities and learn more about marine life in a fun and creative way. Once finished, the coloring pages were hung on the Chocology booth for display.
We love educating people about chocolate, marine life and everything in between. Learning is always fun when you add chocolate to the mix!
Missed us at the FantaSEA Fest? Not to worry! Sunday, November 22 we will be at the I Love Chocolate Festival held at the Old Bethpage Restoration Village. Come out and visit with the Chocology Team and sample, taste, savor and delight in all things chocolate. Linda will be on hand to demonstrate the Art of Tasting Chocolate and have some wonderful samples to share.
Hope to see you there!

A few weeks back, when we were doing our usual pairings at the Port Jefferson's Farmer's Market, a customer came up and asked if we had ever paired our chocolates with a wine called Educated Guess. He had ordered it for his daughter's wedding, boasting it's affordability and it's taste, so we tried it. Agreeing with his description, we decided to call Kira Swain, who lives in San Francisco. Being a wine connoisseur, she agreed to do a taste testing with Chocology Chocolates and our newly found Educated Guess. She also agreed to write about her findings for us.
Kira is a long time friend and fan of Chocology. She's been blogging on various blogs since 2004 and is a chocolate and wine enthusiast. She lives in the Bay Area in California with her dogs Winston and Lulu.
It is with great excitement that we publish Kira's findings on our blog this week. She made it fun by turning it into a tasting party. Read on to find out how Chocology Chocolates paired with Educated Guess. You'll be glad you did!
A Tasting in San Francisco
By Kira
When Linda reached out to me to see if I would be interested in doing a wine and chocolate pairing, I immediately said, “YES!” Since Chocology chocolates have such complex and rich flavors, I thought it would be really interesting to see what paired well with the red wines selected. I had only done chocolate and wine pairings before onsite at the vineyards. Usually the chocolate was selected to enhance the flavor of the wine and not so much for the flavor of the chocolate so I was curious to see how wine would affect the flavors of these rich chocolates.
The Wines
I invited a few girlfriends over, bought a bottle of Educated Guess Cabernet and a bottle of the J. Lohr Estates Seven Oaks Cabernet for this tasting. I’ve had both wines on separate occasions and enjoy both. I’m generally more partial to the Educated Guess because it has more of the dusty, tannic tastes I’m preferential to when it comes to cabs. The J. Lohr has more of a fruity finish to me and while I enjoy the wine, given the option between these two, I tended to gravitate towards Educated Guess when drinking them (with chocolate I mean). Both bottles were from 2013.
The Chocolates
I never get tired of admiring Chocology chocolates! There is so much detail and artistry in each chocolate. The colors, the shapes and the decorative accents come together in each chocolate for a perfect “visual treat” (as well as an edible one). I did my best to assemble the chocolates so that we could all see the different colors and all the tiny details in these chocolates. Using plain white plates created a good contrast between the different chocolates.
Each box of Chocology chocolates has a little insert that talks about the art of tasting chocolate so I read that out loud to my guests. I passed out paper and pens so that they could write down some notes from the pairings that we did. I then cut the chocolates into smaller chunks, wiping the knife in between the chocolates. This way we could all taste a little bit of different ones.
The Pairing
We tasted the 88%, Tahitian Mocha, Mimosa, Lavender Fields, Cherry Tart, UB40, Shangri-La, 5th Ave, and Fleur de Chocolate. We wanted to taste more but we didn’t have any room in our stomachs! We talked about which ones we liked best and wrote down some notes about the different flavor combinations:
Overall, we were pleasantly surprised with the complex flavors of the chocolates and what we tasted when we took a sip of the wines. Some made the flavors pop more after the sip and others brought forward different flavors. We had a great time comparing notes and sharing our thoughts about each of the chocolates and the wines. It was definitely a great evening and we all left with some newfound knowledge of chocolate and wine.
The biggest take away for me was that the Mimosa chocolate is one tasty little chocolate! I really want to pair it with some fresh fruit and crisp champagne as a “dessert” after brunch and I plan on ordering some for the next brunch I host! I also really loved the complex flavor of the Lavender one because I had never had a chocolate/lavender combo. It was such a surprise and the creamy caramel hints were just perfect. I plan on ordering a box of my favorites and trying them out with my favorite Oregon Pinots!

At Chocology, gratitude is something that we cultivate every day. We have so much to be grateful for and Saturday, October 24th was no exception!
We’re still flying high with all of the excitement we experienced by participating in the 8th annual A Taste of Port Jefferson, organized by the Greater Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce.
Chocology was presented with two first place awards for best dessert - both by the Port Jefferson judges and by the People’s Choice. We were so honored to receive both awards and so grateful to everyone who took the time to come out.
We believe that our philosophy of RED ~ Relationships, Education and Distinctiveness ~ is what helps us at Chocology to achieve our goals. We value our relationships with our customers and aim to educate them about the chocolate that they eat. We teach our patrons the Art of Tasting mindfully, which helps them to taste the distinct and subtle flavors that might be missed by rushing through a tasting. We believe that by slowing down and appreciating the experience, we enjoy the finer things in life so much more!
We are so grateful to everyone who stopped by our booth at A Taste of Port Jefferson and want to personally thank all those who voted for us.
We would also like to congratulate some of our friends who also won awards at the event.
Danfords Hotel and the Wave Restaurant won the People’s Choice award for best food and drink overall and also the judge’s award for best over all table display.
The Fifth Season Restaurant won the best Overall Food and Drink presentation.
Smoke Shack Blues won the Best Signature Dish.
The event would not have been possible without help from the sponsors. With much gratitude, we would like to thank Long Island Creative Contracting, Jolie Powell Realty, Times Beacon Record Newspapers, Karras Agency Insurers, St. Charles Hospital, Smoke Shack Blues, AXA Advisors, YELP, Live It Up!, and of course the Chamber of Commerce. We appreciate your support of this fun event and look forward to future years of participation.
What a wonderful way to spend a weekend; great people, great food, great beer, great wine, great desserts and two awards. Now that’s a taste of sweet gratitude!

Entrepreneur. Don’t you just love the word? It invokes a sense of paving one’s own way, innovative new ideas and walking into uncertainty with gusto.
Chocology had the privilege of speaking at the Sprout Pharmaceutical National Sales Conference last Tuesday evening in Washington, D.C. along with 8 other Shark Tank participants. Our focus was to share our experiences with the Sprout National Sales Team, in their "Sprout Tank", about our entrepreneurial practices and business styles.
Sprout Pharmaceuticals is an innovative pharmaceutical company committed to women’s health. “At Sprout, we celebrate ownership, boldness, quirkiness, learning, family and appreciation.” What a great organization to be a part of.
The Shark Tank themed evening began with the Sprout sales team entering the room accompanied by the theme song from Shark Tank. What an inspiring way to enter a sales conference!
After general introductions, Linda Johnson, managing director and owner of Chocology, had three ideas for the sales team.
The evening ended with a talk from Daymond John, entrepreneur, investor, author and star of ABC’s Shark Tank. His hour and a half talk encompassed a time line of his life including humble beginnings, his love of hip hop, his founding of FUBU clothing company (For Us, By Us) and his creation and time on Shark Tank.
John used key words to define the traits needed for entrepreneurship: hustler, mining for opportunities, a willingness to fail and not minding the “you’re crazy” comments.
There were five Shark Tools that he stressed throughout his talk that helped him to be successful and that he wants to impart to new entrepreneurs.
He ended with a quote from his mother that has seen him through all of his adventures. “It takes the same amount of energy to think small as it does to think big.”
His talk was empowering and inspirational not only to the sales team, but to the Shark Tank participants as well.
Other Shark Tank participants included:
Daymond was very inspirational and being with other Shark Tank participants is always exciting. We at Chocology were honored to be present at this event. Daymond John and all of the Shark Tank participants left us feeling uplifted and ready for the many adventures ahead.

Many of you know of the Chocology Cares campaign that we created earlier in the year. When you, our customer, buy Fat Ass Fudge, a portion of the proceeds goes towards helping one of our three chosen charities. Chocology is committed to giving back to the community and helping those in need. Caterina’s Club is one of those organizations.

We are so pleased to announce that Chocology had the honor of presenting a $3,000 check to Chef Bruno of the Anaheim White House Restaurant in Anaheim, CA for Caterina's Club this past week. Chef Bruno’s “Welcome Home” program helps families climb out of poverty and into a proper home. Thanks to our loyal customers and one big donor, an Anaheim family will have a new and safe place to live!
The $3,000 is enough to help a family that has fallen on hard times pay the first and last month rent on an apartment. In many cases, these families have been living with their children in unsafe motel living conditions for quite some time.
In order for a family to qualify for the “Welcome Home” program, one guardian must be employed for at least six months and there must be at least two children living in the household. These requirements ensure that children are lifted out of unsafe living conditions and that the family will be able to maintain rent payments each month. One by one, Chef Bruno is literally giving families a new lease on life!
Having a home means that children have a kitchen, clean bathrooms, a bedroom and a safe outdoor environment to play in ~ something many of us take for granted. You can be a part of this wonderful movement simply by eating chocolate! With the holidays right around the corner, we at Chocology hope to sell enough fudge to help another family in Anaheim! Your order of Fat Ass Fudge truly makes a positive impact on the world!
We truly thank YOU for helping Chocology make a difference in the world! Together, we can continue to change the lives of others for the better. . .

Chocology is proud to present another article by Meaghan Sugrue. She is now in France working on her studies in food science. We are proud to have Meaghan on our team. Thank you Meaghan for keeping us up to date on all you are learning in France!
Hello all, hope you liked my first article on Chocology Today.
Reflecting on my semester abroad through food has been one of my favorite experiences of all time and I cannot tell you how happy all the positive feedback on my first post made me. Thank you so much for reading and please keep in touch.
Anyways, it has been three weeks now since I arrived in Lille. I am at the point where I’m officially settled in, accustomed to my classes with a group of new friends from all over the world, and finally feel ready to assess France via one of the country’s proudest commodities- chocolate. I chose to sample some truffles from Chocolaterie de Beussent Lachelle, as recommended by a French friend. Choosing this past weekend to sample them with a friend from Cornell on a pre-planned trip to Nice in search of warmth, the entire experience struck me as rich. I mean how many people enjoy chocolate as the sun sets over the French Rivera alongside good company. Interestingly enough, these truffles, though distinctly French, shaped like snails and fleur de lis’, reminded me much of the Chocology Unlimited stock, both in taste and in philosophy. They were high quality, made with top-notch ingredients and sold in a tiny shop, which comfortably fit me and the chocolatier. They were simple treats, decadent milk and dark chocolates flavored with classic compliments such as hazelnut and almond, with strong lingering aftertastes. In particular I found one truffle with distinct buttery characteristics the chardonnay of the chocolate world.
As I caught up with my friend over the chocolates I thought about how closely these treats paralleled the French lifestyle, or at least what I’ve observed so far. France seems to be a country steeped in subtleties. A place where I pass buildings several hundred years old lined with gargoyles on each walk to school. A place where people wear effortlessly well fitting clothes and shoes without sporting flashy brand names. It is a much slower culture. People walk most everywhere and a car looks large if it has four doors. Not to say I have completely traded it for my American ways. Just the other day a friend in one of my classes requested I watch a movie because I was frustrated with a group project. However Lille has made me realize a conversation over tea can be just as important as achieving a high profile internship. With the notion that less is more and that life is not a race, I hope to discover more about Europe, chocolate and myself as my travels continue.

Making Fat Ass fudge, and lots of it!
We at Chocology believe in the ripple effect. Drive through the tollbooth in your city sometime and give the operator a smile from the heart. Then look in your rear view mirror! Is everyone behind you now smiling? That’s how the ripple effect works and at Chocology we love to create those kinds of ripples in the world!
So, how do we do it? How do we sow the seeds of love wherever we can?
Well, we have a very special ingredient that goes into every ounce of fudge that we craft. That ingredient is ~
Love is contagious and spreads far and wide. When you love what you do it’s natural that love flows into it. At Chocology, love is at the forefront of everything we do and we hope that the people who enjoy our fudge can taste it!
This week, from sea to shining sea (or from New York to California), Chocology spreads the love with Fat Ass Fudge. After shipments of fudge are sent off to customers around the country, Chocology heads to Anaheim to deliver fudge and make a donation to Caterina’s Club.
Last week we started out by filling an order for Security Net. They will be passing out our Fat Ass Fudge at their Security Conference in Anaheim, CA this week. We wish them a successful conference and thank them for their order. This sale enables us to donate $1,000 to Caterina's Club in Anaheim, California, one of our Chocology Cares recipients. This one sale will get us a third of the way towards our goal of $3,000 to "get a family a home”. We love helping others and are so grateful to Security Net for helping us reach our intent to change the world through chocolate.
Next, we made fudge S’mores for an upcoming Texas wedding, with a portion of that also going towards our Chocology Cares campaign. Congratulations Jessica and Jason! We hope your special day is as special as the two of you and that the love that you share will grow and spread to everyone you encounter.
Don't forget, for every order of fudge we receive, we will give back to one of our Chocology Cares organizations! Who knew eating fudge could benefit so many?
Finally, it was off to make fudge for our dear friends at Operation Freedom Paws, who will be supporting and sharing fudge with their friends at DreamPower Horsemanship! Now that’s paying it forward in action!
We are continuously collecting shoes for Back On My Feet--their Fat Ass Rocky 50K run is in Philadelphia on December 5, 2015. We’re hoping to supply lots of running shoes for their big event. A big thanks to all who have donated so far!
And finally, when we arrive back from Anaheim, we’re off to the Merry Merfolk Festival in Greenport, NY, Saturday September 26 . This Festival will be benefiting the Cornell Cooperative Extension with its Suffolk County Marine Program.
Sunday, of course, we will participate in the Farmer's Market in Port Jefferson.
From sea to shining sea, Chocology put’s its focus on bringing love to all that we meet. We hope you’ll join us in sowing the seeds of love this week!
