DOVE Chocolate

Hello Fellow Chocoholics!

As you may already know, I joined the direct-selling division of Dove Chocolates called  Dove Chocolate Discoveries in July 2010.  I've always loved sweets and have considered opening a sweets shop.  However, knowing what I know now about brick and mortar (leases/advertising, etc.) I really didn't want to have that much responsibility (and risk) again.  When I saw an ad for Dove Chocolate Discoveries, it really rang my bell!  "This is GENIUS!"  I already give away a dove chocolate to every spa guest; everyone knows the brand and loves it ... what a no-brainer!"  AND, the "capital" needed for this new business: $150.00!  Yep, that's it.  Not the $150,000.00 (or more) I'd need for a retail shop.

I started having tasting parties at the spa, and from there a client wanted me to come to her home and have a party and bring Rhonda and the massage chair!  I've posted the fun photos under Dove's page here on my site.  We all had a BLAST! 

With her party goers and a few people who wanted reorders, her sales were high enough that she got LOTS of Chocolate as her hostess gifts!  And from me personally, to say "Thanks" I gave her a $20 GC to Vanities Spa! 

If you would like to host a party, we can have one at your house, or at the spa!  There is no fee for using the spa.   If you'd like Rhonda and her massage talents, we have a very reasonable rate so that everyone in the party can relax and enjoy!

Dove Chocolate Recipes

I've played around with the VERY EASY mousse and instead of using the high-fat Heavy Cream, you can use low-fat Cool Whip!  You still get the necessary peaks and texture, and it's still yummy!


DRINKS

The Chocolate Martini Mix is a crowd favorite.  You can use regular vodka or a number of the new flavored vodkas.  Raspberry & Chocolate are a sexy combo.  Add Sprite for a fizzy cocktail! 


When you get your Chocolate Martini Mix you might want to pour the contents into a blender and whiz it up to blend out any settled chocolate.  Then pour it back into your  Chocolate Martini Mix  bottle and you're good to go!
