I was never really hip to the chocolate game. I had Hersheys but outside of that didn't get the big deal. Until our marketing consultant brought me to one of her other clients shop in Beverly Hills.
Hasty Torres who own Madam Chocolat, showed me the light. After about 20 taste-test's and some the best hot chocolate of all time, my mouth would never be the same. Every time I'm in LA I have to stop by say hi and eat chocolate covered Cheerios.
The last time the team and I was in LA we decided that a collaboration was in order. We met a few weeks back. I did a sketch on the flight back east and here we are offering one of my favorite collaborations so far. See the press release below for more info. If you aren't up on designer chocolate... Go here.All the fancy LA celebs get their chocolate here.
