Gone 'Green'!

Smith Organic Chocolates is going 'green!'

We have been interested in saving our planet from the beginning and our packaging company recently (within the past year) introduced Green Way (TM) and Nature Flex (TM) products. Our brown paper customer bags are made from 100% recycled kraft paper.

We have also begun using Nature Flex (TM) biodegradable clear cello bags for everyday use. Nature Flex Cello bags are made from wood cellulose fibers sourced with sustainable forestry principles. Certified biodegradable, compostable and made carbon zero. Meets FDA requirements for direct food contact.

We are happy to not only be an 'organic' company, who hopes later this year to become USDA certified organic, but we are also interested in using recyclable and biodegradable packaging products.

How have you gone green? Post a comment and let us know.

'New' Services from Smith Organic Chocolates

Smith Organic Chocolates is pleased to announce that we are now available to help brides in a number of different ways.

First, we have several different molds, such as the cake mold pictured above, plus bells, bride/groom, and special heart-shaped molds that feature wedding dress and tuxedo necklines.

Very soon, shortly after Easter, a new Wedding section will be up on the website. You can browse what some of the molds look like.

Also...we'd like to let you know that any of our peanut butter, almond butter, or coconut balls, which are currently made with butter, can be made with an organic vegetable spread by request.

Let us know if there's anything you'd like to see us do. If it's possible, we'll make it happen for you. Post a comment and let us know.

Organic Garden at the White House

We were pleased to see that the Obamas are supporting organic gardening and organic produce.

On Friday, March 20th, First Lady Michelle Obama helped break ground for an organic garden, according to CNN.com.

"We're just hoping that a lot of families look at us and say this is something that they can do and talk to their own kids about and think a little bit critically about the food choices that they make," said Marian Robinson, the president's mother-in-law. (copied from CNN.com)

Choices, choices - for those of us in the natural foods industry, we've already made our choice. We'd rather spend our money at the grocery store on higher quality food, such as organics, than at the doctor's office.

So it follows then, that we want our "sweets" to be organic too. That's why Smith Organic Chocolates IS ORGANIC! You know that anything you eat from us will be 'clean' - in other words, no bug sprays, no preservatives added, and no artificial colorings or flavorings!

NEW - Bite-Sized Eggs

Another consideration for our egg boxes, (pictured previously) is our new "bite-sized" egg shape for Easter - OR a Ganache Cross. Our "Bite-Sized" egg will look like the "big" ones, only they'll be a lot smaller! You can eat them in one or two bites!

Our 7.5-oz. solid chocolate cross can be made into a "ganache" cross - in other words, with a center - like a Peanut Butter Cross, or a Coconut Cross, etc.

Let your imagination run wild! What would you like for Easter in the way of chocolate? Post a comment and let us know.
