October’s newsletter is live.

This month: Gary and Steve, our suspiciously modern resident ghosts; the strange way local lore becomes “everybody knows”; downtown ghost tours; Loon bars making a comeback; and the long-awaited return of our matcha truffle plans, now that Valrhona has finally stopped tormenting us with Matcha Inspiration.

New newsletter is up.

This one is about being underestimated, messing with perfectly good products because I can’t leave anything alone, what’s coming next in the chocolate case, and the work I’ve been doing for Revel.

Also: female chefs, dirty sheet pans, selective customer memory, and why the shiny object at the end was never supposed to be the whole point.

This month, I’m talking about what happens when restaurants cut the pastry chef but keep the dessert menu, why Colorado Springs does not need more damn bread pudding just because nobody adjusted the baking soda, and the difference between buying a component with intention and thawing whatever showed up on the truck.

Also inside: croissant vs. Danish vs. puff pastry, three new dark chocolate bars, and a very vague hint about a possible limited-seat dessert pop-up. The paperwork is unsigned. The plate is classified.

Read it through the link in the comments.

Happy World Chocolate Day.
We didn’t plan a sale, a stunt, or a limited-time existential crisis.
We did, however, make a lot of chocolate.
So here’s a satisfying enrober shot of truffles getting their shiny little coats.
You’re welcome.
