Baltimore Magazine notified me this week that The Velvet Chocolatier was named Baltimore’s Best Chocolate Shop for 2017! It’s really something to be recognized in this issue…I always think of chocolate as being a personal choice decision, based on each individual’s palette. So, I am honored that my chocolates appealed to those at Baltimore Magazine-

In reading through the list of “bests”, I noticed the local Baltimore uniqueness-the one-of-a-kind, the small business. That is what helps to make our town of Baltimore so distinct and charming. In a world where “big” is taking over, it makes me happy to know that small business is thriving in our town!
