    Thin chocolate

    Short version: $75 worth of chocolates for Valentine's Day were hard as rock, and the team and owner did not offer any apology or resolution, insisting that 'of course they're hard because they were ice cold' despite my explanation that they were tried at room temperature. Detail: This was my very first experience with Snelgrove's. I came to the shop on the Thursday before Valentine's Day and was thrilled to see the lovely decorations and loads of options to choose from. The shop is adorable. I even texted photos to my friends immediately upon entering, saying that I'd 'hit the jackpot' in my search for chocolate. I made my selections and ran home to try them with every intention of sharing my delight on my social media accounts before giving the large box of truffles as a hostess gift on the holiday. I purchased 6 chocolates on the side, from the display cases, to have for myself. I only live a few minutes from the shop, so as soon as I got home, I broke open my box and took a bite. My heart sank. The chocolate shell of the amaretto truffle was so thin that you could see the filling from the bottom, and the filling was so hard that my teeth scraped over the roundness of it. Gotta be a fluke, right? I tried a second. The Almond truffle that the salesperson told me would have a smooth almond filling. SAME ISSUE. Hard as rock and super thin chocolate shell. Instant buyer's remorse. Annoyed, I chatted with friends and went off to make dinner. After dinner, it struck me that I'd hoped that the gift box wasnt the same situation... so I opened it up- only to find all the truffles strewn inside the box- no padding, no plastic wrap to keep them fresh - just a jumble of chocolate and paper wrappers. I bit one: hard as rock. Bit another: same. Now I was incredibly disappointed. Friday morning, I returned to the shop and sat for a little while in the parking lot, hoping to go in when the shop was empty, but that was not looking like an option. I went in and quietly explained to one of the teammembers. They called the woman who had helped me. She put a hand on the box, and feeling it cool (from 20degree weather outside) she insisted that when chocolates are cold, they're hard. (Essentially made me feel like she was saying I, a lifelong chocoholic, was eating chocolate wrong.) She repeated this again and again, and I repeated as quietly as I could that i had tried them at home (room temperature). The owner heard her tone and came over and got a bit involved in agreeing that truffles are hard when cold - while she took the box that was my portion and cut one of the truffles open. : / The last straw for me was her announcing loudly, in the busy shop, that 'He's the owner, so what he says goes.' So much for accepting feedback. So much for offering an apology. I stayed quiet from that point on. Better to just receive my refund and be done with the experience. So, here I am sharing my point of view with so much less joy than I was expecting to. Will not be returning, but I do hope that, for the sake of their business, they take a closer look at that box before throwing it away. Let their team each take a bite and discuss honestly. They'd be better for it.

    Hot Chocolate Bombs

    My best friend was in charge of helping my expanding family with a gender reveal for our new baby this week. She was able to work with the chocolatiers at Snelgrove's to have these amazing custom gender reveal hot chocolate bombs made for us and they were wonderful! Inside of each hot chocolate bomb was colored marshmallows to let us know the gender of the new baby. It was such a fun way to find out and we were doubly impressed by the flavor of the hot chocolate when the bombs melted into the warmed milk. Delicious! They were able to get this order done in just a few short days, which was fantastic for our admitted impatience; wanting to find out what the new bundle of joy will be! Would absolutely order again.

    Pentimento helped us set the stage for a beautiful wedding day for our daughter in September. They…read morewere the perfect team to help us create the warm, romantic and personal tone at our lovely historic venue. From the moment we met with Sara, we knew we had a partner who would help us make our vision come true. The flowers were abundant, fresh and gorgeous! The bouquets, alter arrangements, centerpieces, statement pieces were elegant and exactly what we'd hoped for! The pictures I have attached are just a sampling of the lovely work Sara and her team delivered! At every turn, Sara's instincts and creativity were spot on! We highly recommend Pentimento for creative and beautiful creations!! We can't wait for our next special event!

    It was my first time ordering flowers from Pentimento for my mother 2 days before Mother's Day…read more They came through when another flower place in town did not (I sent a request first thing in the morning and didn't receive a reply until almost 5 pm saying they ran out of flowers!). Fortunately, I knew Pentimento also had lovely flowers, and after no reply for several hours, I went to Pentimento's site and easily ordered a bouquet right online (something the other shop does not allow you to do). It was simple and easy and the bouquet turned out even better than the photo they had shown on their site! My mother loved the flowers! They will have my business from now on for their prompt reply and ease ordering online. Thank you for a great service and product!
