Sweetopia Chocolates was started in 2006. A daughter asked her dad if he would help her with her dream of having her own chocolate shop. Life was never the same for Dad. Kristine had numerous years of experience in the chocolate business before Sweetopia Chocolates was founded. Many of today's recipes are over 100 years old and are used daily in our shop. We are located in the Midwest in Hiawatha, Iowa. One of our customer favorites is our vanilla caramels, they don't stick to your teeth! People enjoy them by the pound...
Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.
How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.
If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
