Perhaps the people at Vosges Haut Chocolat thought tried and true chocolates were getting a bit stale. Don’t get me wrong, their selection of traditional bon bons and caramels look heavenly. But they thought outside the heart-shaped box when they came up with their line of Exotics. Exotic ice cream comes in flavors like chipotle and curry. Exotic truffles are made with paprika and violet flower petals. Exotic candy bars are flavored with bacon and kalamata olives. The lure of these coture candies is you never know what to expect when you take that first bite. And with adorable names like "Wink of the Rabbit" and "Woolloomooloo" you can’t help but crave a box for yourself.
Their commitment to the "Vosges Green Mission" is admirable. All their chocolates are made with organic ingredients. They are continuously trying to reduce waste in their manufacturing and packaging, all paper materials are made with recycled materials, and they use white sunshades outside their facilities to reduce cooling costs inside. It sounds like these folks are the future of business innovation and confectionery revolution.
