Well that worked well

Remember that post on being prepared if my site magically disappeared? Notice how it’s gone? I’m sitting here minding my own business and the trust husband says, “That’s not good.” He turns his laptop to me and viola!!! My site is yet again gone. The hosting company moved me, but didn’t do as I asked and didn’t restore my site. So I had to do it. Of course my local internet service provider is slow and also dumb and they only update their servers once a week. Lucky for me they do it on Sundays. So I tried to restore my site, but couldn’t see it. I think everything is worked out (once again beating my fist bloody on a piece of wood).

The bad news is that all the wonderful voting you guys did on chocolate flavors is lost. So that means you will have to vote again. Vote early and vote often. We fixed it so you can vote as many times as you like now.

Let’s recap the whole Sweet Hope stuff shall we?

  • Voting for Truffle flavors will go through the 15th (Thursday)
  • Truffles and Caramels will go on sale Friday, March 16th. They will be sold through April 13th.
  • Truffles will be $15 for a box of 1 dozen mixed or $8.50 for a box of 6 of a single variety
  • Caramels will be $12 for a box of 2 dozen
  • We took suggestions from some of our customers and are changing the packaging. Prettier and more stable for shipping. (we’ll post photos as soon as the boxes arrive)
  • All orders will ship May 7th, just in time for Mother’s day!
  • Here is a description of each of the flavors so you can be an informed voter:

    Chocolate: milk chocolate inside and out dusted with cocoa

    Dark Chocolate: dark chocolate inside and out dusted with Hershey’s Special Dark cocoa

    Grand Marnier: milk chocolate centers with a touch of Grand Marnier coated with milk chocolate and topped with Lindt Orange Almond dark chocolate crumbles

    Hazelnut: milk chocolate centers with a hint of hazelnut (a secret ingredient gives it the unique flavor) coated with milk chocolate and dusted with crushed hazelnuts

    Orange Ginger: milk chocolate centers with a hint of fresh orange zest coated in milk chocolate and dusted with ginger powdered sugar

    *Our new flavors*

      The white chocolate sounds absolutely yummy.

    2. oh my gosh… these all sound fab. but i’m turning over a new leaf and trying to keep stuff like this (which, to me, is pretty much like heroin) out of my house…. but, if they will be shipping in time for mother’s day, perhaps I can send ’em to my mom!

    3. Here are my top 3:
