FAQ's - Products

Do we eat the chocolate?

Yes! The bottle is wrapped in a protective sleeve before we hand paint the chocolate on it.

Is there wine (beer, Champagne, soda, juice) in the bottle?

Yes, there is wine in the bottle!

Why dip a bottle?

By slathering the bottle with Belgian chocolate and inclusions, the flavor and aroma nuances of the beverage and toppings are highlighted.  You will never have chocolate perfectly paired any other way.

The chocolate on my bottle is cracked, does this hurt the product?

Stress fractures may occur, but this does not affect the taste of the chocolate.

Should I keep the wine in the refrigerator?

For wines best served chilled, we recommend placing the bottle in the refrigerator up to 2 hours prior to serving. Any longer may cause the chocolate to "bloom" or to appear dull.

Do you use nuts, gluten products, or other food allergens in your facility?

Yes. Due to our wide range of pairings, many of our products contain common allergens. We do, however, offer gluten free chocolate pairings. Contact us with any further questions.

 I had a particular bottle from you in the past, but now I don't see it. Why is that?

At times, a certain wine or vintage may run out or be discontinued. If you do not see a bottle you’re looking for, contact us and one of our representatives can suggest a similar wine and/or pairing. Our pairings change seasonally as we travel, sample, and source new flavors and ingredients.

There is a wine I really enjoy, but I do not see it offered. Can you get this wine and pair it for me?

If a wine is available for sale in Ohio, we can try to get it for you. Otherwise we can recommend a comparable wine.

Can I bring you a bottle to dip for me?

Outside of high production times (November 1st-December 25th) we do accept outside bottles. Price for outside bottles is $35 for the dipping, and we ask for a two day turn around.
