Live, Beautiful Chocolate
Live, Beautiful Chocolate: Snake & Butterfly
Our new favorite stand at the Campbell farmers market on Sundays is the intriguingly named organic chocolate line Snake & Butterfly. Made locally in Campbell, the fair-trade, organic chocolate range includes some “live” bars, which means the treats are choc full of healthy nutrients, including valuable antioxidants. Celeste Flores (who you’ll likely see at the market stall) and her team produce all of their own chocolate, which is refined, tempered and hand-poured in small batches using traditional methods in their own little factory. Their wares include a range of single origin chocolate bars (we’re fans of the Madagascar, which has a berry-like flavor), plus uniquely flavored truffles (try the Thai, richly flavored with coconut, lemongrass, lime and cayenne), gourmet marshmallows and much more.
