In Celebration of Chocolate

In Celebration of Chocolate!

This winter doesn’t seem to know how to leave so that spring can really take over which is making us a little bummed here at Elizabeth’s Gourmet Toffees. So, to take our minds off winter’s continued presence we have decided to hold a little celebration to take our mind off this. We are going to celebrate …

CHOCOLATE!

This is John and we want to celebrate one of our favorite ingredients in candy making. Chocolate has been a primary part of confectionery creation for hundreds of years and we love to put it together with other ingredients to make the delicious truffles, toffees, and other confectionery treats that so many people enjoy.

From March 4^th to March 10^th instead of just a couple of our special chocolate treats each day we will have over a dozen different special chocolate treats each day for people to enjoy. To help you enjoy them we have a coupon that you can use to save over 50% off the cost of our scrumptious truffles. All you need to do is bring your cell phone in, open this coupon to show it to one of our artisans, and pick out up to ten of your favorite truffles to take home for just $10.00.

Use this coupon every day next week. We want you to try as many of our truffles as you can because we know that you will be back for more of our mouthwatering delights. Come help us celebrate!

Say Hi to Katrina

Hi!

This is Katrina! I thought I would follow up John’s introduction to our little business with a little bit about myself so you can find out about both of us.

Katrina Jacobsen

So, John and I will both be using this little blog to talk to you, our fans. And just so you know who is talking to you, we’ll try to put our name at the beginning of each of these little blogs.

First, a little about myself. Some of you might know me as Elizabeth’s Gourmet Toffees is not my first business here in town. And I can’t argue with John, I do have a sweet tooth. But then, who doesn’t, right?

As you found out from John’s blog, the Elizabeth in our businesses name is my mother. She was a wonderful woman who made candy for our family and friends every holiday. And she had a few secret recipes that she wouldn’t share with anyone but everyone liked. Now we have those recipes and a few that John has come up with himself and if I do say so myself, his creations are almost as good as my mothers. Those mango-jasmine truffles, YUUMMM! Well if you haven’t tried them yet you really need to do yourself a favor and try one tomorrow.

L to R: Almond-Orange Truffle, Cardamon-Rose Truffle, Mango-Jasmine Truffle

Stop in soon to see John and try every one of these wonderful treats. I know I love them and I know that you will love them too. They are the perfect treat after a hard day.

Discovering the Best Sweet Treats in Town!

Hi! Welcome to this wonderland that is Elizabeth’s Gourmet Toffees blog! What is Elizabeth’s Gourmet Toffees? And why do they have a blog? Good questions!

Let’s see if we can answer those questions for you. We’ll start with, what is Elizabeth’s Gourmet Toffees? We’re a company that started just a little over a year ago, making and selling the finest confections in downtown Wausau. We make delicious toffees, truffles, caramels and other sweet treats in a wide variety of unique flavors. One of our most popular flavors is our chocolate bacon toffee. Mmmm, delicious!

We named our little confectionary after our partner’s mother, Elizabeth. You see, Elizabeth always made homemade candies every holiday and well, Katrina’s got a little bit of a sweet tooth now. So, Katrina and I are making these scrumptious delights for everyone to enjoy after a hard day at work.

And as to why we have a blog? We have a blog to talk to you, our fans, and you, those who aren’t our fans yet. This is a time for us to share with you our ideas, our thoughts, and maybe a few of our recipes.

 So, come back around and check out a few more of our blogs. We may rattle on a bit but you might end up with a few new ideas, some motivation, and maybe a couple of good deals.

Join us on our trip through this internet and maybe together we’ll make our way out of this wonderland.
