It’s our last day in the shop! Come celebrate the end of an era with us ❤️🍫
We made Salted Caramel Frogs, Milk and Dark Peanut Butter Buddhas, S’mores and tons more Almond Turtles! We also have lots of Macadamia Coconut Cups and Sweet Pecan & Chili Cups. As a sweet bonus, we’re slashing prices on chocolate bars and tea by 40% and greeting cards by 50%!

We’re making Key Lime Sundaes and $5 affogatos (while supplies last)! This is your last chance to stock up on Ex Voto goodies and make your day a little sweeter!

Please be patient as we make all orders as quickly as possible, but it’s been quite the month, so know we are doing our best. Thank you! Cheers to 9 years 🥳

Odds & Ends... and Sales

Although it may be the end (temporarily), the only thing odd is that we have Peppermint Bark Cups in June! We also have Salted Caramel Frogs, V***e Clicquot Champagne Truffles, and some in-store merch. Our delicious Key Lime Sundaes will be available until supplies run out and we have a

gelato special, $11 each when you buy two or more (in store purchases).

Starting Thursday all greeting cards, tea items and chocolate bars will be 20% off!

Our doors close this Saturday, so please come in to get some chocolates
and say goodbye. We will certainly miss everyone:)

Specialty Items Available!

Before we say goodbye, we are offering some specialty items that would normally come at a different time of year or are our own 'kitchen secrets' that we are sharing!

First off we have our Frogs in Salted Caramel and Vegan Peanut Butter. We also have Hot Cakes Vegan Caramel, which is the best vegan caramel sauce we have ever tried! We still have a couple bags of our special house-blended Mayan Spice Mix, and we are offering bags of the dark and rich cocoa powder that we use in our kitchen to make the best hot fudge sauce ever. Pots O'Gold, V***e Cliquot Truffles, Peppermint Cups and other Holiday specialty items are coming next week!

Lastly, our branded merchandise pre-order closes this Sunday, so if you want an Ex Voto tote bag, t-shirt or sweatshirt get your orders in ASAP. All merch will available for pick up June 24th-27th.
All supplies are limited and we have just 10 days left for making purchases in store! All items are online and can be ordered for pick up until our last day, June 27th.

Big News!

After 9 years in our chocolate shop we have decided it’s time to close our doors. We had a wonderful experience being a part of our community in such a meaningful way and are so thankful for the years we spent together crafting love into chocolate! We so appreciate every customer who supported us, through all the ups and downs life brings. You were always there for us and we’re so thankful!

We’ve officially signed a contract for the sale of our shop, BUT we are keeping the brand we built, our recipes and all chocolate making equipment. This means Ex Voto can live on! Though it will be much different from the brick and mortar experience, we plan to go back to our Cottage Industry roots and do some holiday pop-ups etc in the future. Join our mailing list and keep an eye out on social media to stay in the loop on any updates we have. For now, we look forward to taking a much needed break from business.

Our last day open at the shop will be Saturday, June 27th! If you have any product requests for this next month please let us know, we'll try our best to make all of your favorites so you can stock up. We can help you with long-term storage to keep your treats fresh as long as possible! 🍫

With love and gratitude, Jennifer & Sophia ❤️
