Dear Reader,
Welcome to Storyline Chocolates!
We have reimagined fine chocolate through the power of storytelling.
Each edition of our Chocolate Stories is inspired by a unique destination...imagine Fall in New England or Spring in Charleston. Each edition comes with a short travel romance that immerses you in the sights, flavors, and heritage of the setting.
As you read the story, our tasting wayposts will immerse you in a full sensory experience to pause, observe, smell, taste, & savor our delicious fine chocolate bars. Our Chocolate Tasting Wheel, featured below, will help you understand and describe the different properties occuring in your chocolate bar.
Below you will find a sample waypost from our first edition chocolate story, Byways to Montague.
Byways to Montague tells the story of Catie and Cole who are on their third date, a road trip along the Lost Villages Scenic Byway. Their trip leads them to a ghost town, a book mill, and an apiary. But Catie has a secret. Will her secret ruin a perfect third date?
"The garden was absolutely stunning! Pale pink stones formed a pathway that wound through the garden passing under three arched trellises brimming with bright red climbing roses. The pathway led into a courtyard....where a long vineyard table was set for twenty guests. The table was decorated with flaming candelabras and bountiful rose centerpieces, along with single stem roses at each place setting, which, in harmony, emitted a sweet, delicate, intoxicating perfume that one can only find in the garden."
Our Chocolate Tasting Wheel has been designed exclusively for Storyline Chocolates. The wheel is divided into four sections including appearance, texture, aroma, and flavor. As you taste our chocolate, look to understand how these different properties occur in the chocolate.
