Trunk Or Treat!
We live on a dirt road about 2.5 miles into the middle of the woods. Most people who visit us for the first time usually say something like, "I didn't think anyone lived out here," or they start making banjo sounds from the movie Deliverance. If anyone were to ring our doorbell on Halloween night, it would certainly be a lost hunter or a family member who had accidentally locked himself out of the house. So having the opportunity to give out cand... Continued | Read MorePosted Monday, Nov 8 | by Barkeater Chocolates
Where on Earth is North Creek Anyway?
Unless one of our shows takes place within a 45-minute drive of our home base; this question is asked of us no fewer than 100 times a day.

And so, the games began. The slogans were posted on our Facebook and Twitter pages for voting. After hundreds of votes were tallied, we came u... Continued | Read More

Can Peanut Butter Cups Save Lives?
This story comes courtesy of one of our retailers in North Creek. Normally Laurie sells Barkeater Chocolates' gourmet truffles in numerous assortments, which are fabulous for gifts and souvenirs. I offered Laurie some of our gourmet Grown-Up Peanut Butter Cups to sample, knowing that they would sell quickly in small packages when visitors just want a little pick-me-up while they're vacationing.Laurie took the package of four cups back...
