Our story
Bespoke Chocolate was created to provide a product line and educational/entertainment to the Eastern Shore that will adapt and continually change with the seasons and holiday expectations of our customer following.
We first opened our doors on December 1, 2021 to a wildly popular holiday season. What was originally envisioned as a part time project in chocolatiering quickly grew to meet the interests of the community, now offering seasonal gifts for all times and holidays and an ever-increasing selection of chocolates and other treats.
We have also been excited to partner with other local business and organizations for special events, including Washington College, the Sultana Education Foundation, and local vineyards and restaurants. We also offer unique creations for occasions such as weddings and corporate events. Interested in partnering with us? Reach out to us at info@bespokechocolate.net and let's see what we can do together!
Paramount, is our mandate to only use and support Fair Trade Cocoa Farming.
The developing countries in Africa and South America that grow the world’s cocoa beans, historically paid starving wages and used slavery as a means to capitalize on the world’s love of chocolate. In Ghana and the Ivory Coast, the two largest contributors of chocolate in the world, farmers will make as little $0.50 per day. Fairtrade International (FLO) created an international standard for the minimum price fair trade cocoa farmers receive per ton of cocoa.
