Sweet Petite Confections Sign
I recently had the chance to visit Sweet Petite Confections and speak with founder, Michelle Lomelin and taste some of her amazing chocolates. The first thing I noticed after walking through the door was the wonderful aroma of chocolate hanging in the air. The second thing I noticed was how delicate and beautiful all of the chocolates looked. I couldn’t wait to dive in!
Cherry Bomb Bark:
Michelle’s creations don’t just look beautiful. They are melt in your mouth good with creative, unique ingredients. For example, the Cherry Bomb Bark is 64% dark chocolate blended with organic freeze dried cherries and popping rocks! For me, this chocolate brought back the nostalgia of popping rocks I enjoyed as a child with an adult twist.

Seaside Bark:
Next up, was the Seaside Bark, made with dark chocolate, crisped rice, and Hawaiian salt. I could have eaten this for days. The sweet and salty combination was perfectly executed. And I loved the palm trees, shells, and starfish pattern on the chocolates!

Sunrise Bark:
Daisies happen to be my favorite flower, so I couldn’t help but be pulled to this chocolate, the Sunrise. This chocolate has freeze dried strawberries and corn flakes mixed in. Michelle said that her son originally came up with the combination and has been a hit ever since.

Tuscan Sun Bark:
Although I enjoyed all of the chocolate, the Tuscan Sun bark was my favorite. Made with candied basil, sun dried tomato, Hawaiian sea salt, and toasted almonds, this bark kept my taste buds engaged. The candied basil was aromatic and the salty flavor of the sun dried tomatoes played perfectly with the sweetness of the chocolate. It was a savory experience that I would like to repeat!

Mint Meltaways:
If you’re looking for a tasty dessert to cap off a dinner or just a snack to get you through the day, you needn’t look further. The Mint Meltaways are a vegan chocolate lovers dream. Organic coconut oil and organic peppermint essential oils are wrapped up in these dark chocolates. And as the name suggests, they really do melt in your mouth.
