Mother's Day At The Science Of Chocolate
Mother’s love chocolate, but they also love when you put thought into their chocolate gifts. Here at The Science Of Chocolate, the thought is already added! All chocolate here is made with cacao that goes ABOVE fair-trade standards, with transparent and ethical sourcing. All chocolate is made by small-scale chocolate entrepreneurs from around the world.
As well, each gift set you order is packed with care and many lovely add-ons. See below for wonderful gift ideas, or browse the online shop to create your own personal gift idea.

Many think of chocolate only as a sweet or desert. History tells us another story. The Mesoamericans enjoyed chocolate in their foods such as tamales or with fish. The Italians made chocolate anchovy lasagna. I recommend charcuterie. Imagine single-origin chocolate with unique profiles like wine or coffee, or cheese and cured meats. Enjoy trying each food on its own, and them mix and match to pair them and discover lovely unique flavour combinations!
This gift set includes:
Three (3) chocolate bars that will complement cheese and meat.
All natural freeze dried cheese (real cheese simply dehydrated for a lovely crunch).
A package of premium beef jerky. Only 3 ingredients (beef, salt, pepper). No sulphites, no preservatives, and lower in salt than other jerky.
All the gift-set add-ons (tasting guide, flavour wheel poem keepsake, storing guide, paper flowers, tongs, sticker, tissue and stuffing)

Some would say hazelnuts and cocoa are a match made in heaven. The idea of combining hazelnuts and chocolate (gianduja) was invented in Northern Italy in the 19th Century. Today, we don’t need to go to Italy to enjoy premium chocolate hazelnut products. These three are made right here in Canada, and are sublime!
This Gift Box Includes:
Two (2) hazelnut chocolate bars (contain dairy) and 1 delicious hazelnut chocolate spread (dairy-free).
All the gift-set add-ons (tasting guide, flavour wheel poem keepsake, storing guide, paper flowers, tongs, sticker, tissue and stuffing)
