If y’all don’t already know, Tama Organic Life is a wonderful little organic grocery store in east van. I started shopping there for the organic Japanese products I couldn’t find in many other places and really loved the people and the principles of the shop long before they carried my chocolate. Then, it was actually one of the women who work there who encouraged me to bring in my chocolate and they have been so supportive of me and by business, too.

This weekend, they are celebrating 30 years! 🥳 I am so happy for and inspired by them and so I am excited to pop up during their celebrations on Saturday from 11am-3pm (or while stock & samples last).

Even if you can’t make it while I am there, I highly recommend you check them out, either during the weekend festivities or any time! Find them at #102-2828 East Hastings St. (That strip mall diagonally across from the PNE)

I know it feels like it’s been a minute. I will be back at the Coquitlam Farmers Market tomorrow (Sunday August 23).

A couple of highlights that will be on the table:
Experimental Bar - Strawberry Yuzu. It got a quiet release and the shop allocation are already sold out, so come by the market!

Limited Return - Mainland Ginsky. Super popular last year and I really enjoyed working with Mainland Wh**ky, so I thought I would do it again. The process for making this one takes more time and resting, so it is still a limited batch. Get them while you can! (Also, Mainland Wh**ky is currently trying to raise funds for a reno to increase capacity at their tasting room . Go to their profile to find out more)

Hope to see y’all at the market in the morning! Rain or shine at the Dogwood Pavilion from 9am to 1pm.

First off, yes, I will be at Coquitlam Farmers Market this Sunday (July 26)! However, I will not have as much as I usually do. There will be bars (slightly smaller stock) and iced tea, but no rough bites or black sesame cups. We are, thankfully, getting our dying HVAC replaced, however, what we thought would be one day without has turned into 4 and I cannot turn on my machines (that then create motor heat) or temper in a reliable way.

But! There are a couple of returning bars that I did temper earlier, so if you liked the no-sugar blueberry from a couple of years back or have missed the Ray Gun bar, happy news for you! They are back on the shelf and will be with me at the market!

We are having our HVAC replaced! This is great because it never really did work properly and sounded like a jet taking off. We hope the new one will be quieter and better. However, we did not realize how loud and messy it would be, so we are closed for the rest of the day (Thursday July 23).

What is shio koji? Simply, it is koji mixed with salt and steamed rice that is then allowed to ferment. The rice breaks down into enzymes, glutamates and sugars that then imparts a mildly salty umami flavour. It can be used in place of salt, but with less sodium or used as part of more complex flavourings.

I have been trying to work this into chocolate for a while and finally figured out a method to make a koji salt bar! Combining the excellent Vankoji Foods Ltd. shio koji with Kokoa Kamili Tanzanian beans in a dark 75% bar, I’m hoping you’ll enjoy this extra small batch!

On the shelf, now and available tomorrow morning at the Coquitlam Farmers Market (Dogwood parking lot from 9am-1pm)

ArtsWells starts today! A festival put on by Island Mountain Arts celebrating all the arts in my old town, Wells BC. Once again, I am super happy to make a bar for the festival! Inspired by the beautiful artwork of Lindsay Kay, we put some wildflower flavour in this one - a combination of elderflowers and wild blueberry tea.

The bars will be available at the festival and a limited release from me. On the shelf today and dropped Cascadia Bakehouse | Port Moody this morning! It will also be available at the Coquitlam Farmers Market this Sunday!
