Does anybody remember 10 Degrees Chocolate? They tried copying everything I did. Gutted except for the kitchen and cooler. Now it's a very brighly lit Indie nightclub. Meet Daneeka. She's a rockstar here at Choklat and has stuck it out with us through the worst of times. Gotta love that smile!
16 years ago today, Choklat opened in a tiny little shop down in Inglewood. What started as a social experiment for me has since turned into a delicious journey that has put smiles on the faces of 100's of thousands of people all over the world.
I have to confess. Today's reflection elicits mixed emotions. As I am sure happens with any entrepreneurial venture there are struggles, sacrifices, and celebrations. Choklat is no different I guess.
Knowing what I know now, would I do things different? Absolutely.
However the one thing that keeps me coming back day in and day out, is the joy I get to see in the faces of my customers when they try my creations, or how big a child's eyes get when I top their hot chocolate with blue whipped cream and cool sprinkles.
That feeling is hard to beat.
Happy Birthday Choklat! I think I'll stick around for a few more years.
Please feel free to share some of YOUR favourite Choklat experiences.
Hi Everyone. I've taken a bit more of a "punchy" path with respect to sharing what makes 2-Pure so much better than others. Please share your thoughts in the comments!
2-Pure single serve protein smoothie powders are GREAT for people on the go! Throw them in your backpack or purse and enjoy a delicious, high protein fruit smoothie when you need it.
No need to cut up fruit, or worry about a baggie breaking in your pack.
Our CEO uses them on his backcountry dirt bike rides and loves them! He can fit two pouches in his shaker cup.
Now his riding buddies are starting to use them as well!
How much protein powder have you thrown out because it tastes terrible? Ours is so good we were crazy enough to enter it into a hot chocolate competition!
...and we tied for THIRD!!!
Finally eating healthy doesn't have to taste like you just licked the parking lot!
