Husband M and I were at the mall. We stopped by Purdy's chocolatier for ice cream. There was a nice young man working inside the store. He mentioned that Purdy's chocolate was made from sustainable cocoa. It is a Canadian company from Vancouver since 1907. The young man said he loved working there, knowing that even if the prices were higher it was for the best cause. He even pointed out no sugar chocolate options for M who is diabetic. He gave me a free chocolate sample , their Sweet Georgia Brown, which tasted like a Turtles chocolate. When I asked, he told me he was allowed to eat one piece of product a day and he is given a 30% discount on their boxed chocolate. It was obvious that he loved his job.
Sounds like a great place to work! I got given a chocolate Santa yesterday, but it's still in one piece! Hugs, Valerie

Hi Christine :) Thanks for this post, I've been looking for a good chocolate supplier in Canada. Even the "good" chocolate at the store tastes waxy these days! I'm going to check out Purdy's.
