Hi,

It’s been a while since our last update, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to offer well wishes, Season’s Greetings and a heartfelt Thank you to all the members of our vast and growing Cocoa Community!

We’ve been fortunate to enjoy a busy holiday push and our team has stepped up to meet the challenge! Sharon, Molly, Rawson & Cat have been picking, packaging and cranking out orders as fast as they come in, Maggie is out providing education on all things chocolate, Sarah is fielding calls with a smile and well wishes to all, Christine continues to keep us social with postings of all our latest and greatest offerings, Jerry our newest teammate has jumped in to become immersed in all things chocolate, Deb is her usual whirlwind keeping it all going & flowing while Rob (or Rob Wonka as we know him), continues to keep operations, back end flow and and many, many customers humming along with Swiss chocolate clock-like precision!

On a side note, speaking of Wonka, as passionate chocolate devotees, we’re all excited for the release of the new Wonka movie out this week, so we’ve rented a local theater for a private showing as our Christmas party and look forward to gorging on everlasting gobstoppers and magical gravity defying soda while we float all around the theater and learn the backstory of our heritage:-). We’re often asked if WWC is like working at a real life Willy Wonka Factory and even though we may not have chocolate rivers and little orange Oompa Loompas managing the facility, we do get to work with chocolate, creative entrepreneurs, incredibly passionate professional chefs, artisans and home bakers every day…and yes we do have Rob Wonka! Additionally, we consider ourselves particularly blessed this holiday season and always, because we get to work daily with and for folks like you!

Please accept heartfelt wishes from the entire WWC team for a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, a Joyous Holiday and New Year Season for all.  Hopefully as we have an opportunity to enjoy time with family and friends we can all take a moment to offer Prayers for Peace and Solace on Earth for all!

Cheers,
Craig
