I
just wanted to tell you how much my ENTIRE family enjoyed the
Zapp's dipped chips I gave them all for Christmas! My dad said
I must bring him there the next time he comes to visit. :)

“I
just wanted to tell you what a pleasant experience it was for
us to spend time in your store last Saturday evening. Your opening
the store for us after closing was one of the nicest gestures,
and it provided a perfect ending to one of the most perfect days
ever.”

“I
received the package early this afternoon. Thank you so much for
going out of your way at the last minute to get it to me today.
I will keep you in mind as I think these [Italian confetti] candy
flowers are great gifts for people who need nothing in the later
years in life. We are at the age where we are getting invitations
to 50th wedding anniversaries and older birthdays. Hopefully one
of these days I will get back to New Orleans and be able to stop
in your shop again. In the mean time wishing you continued success
and many blessings. Thanks Again”

It
would be hard to describe how this chocolate treat would spoil
you for all others. It is not chocolate in the sense of a chocolate
bar, but chocolate in the sense of the chocolate you would find
at the heart of the best chocolate truffle you have ever tasted,
and instead of a chocolate shell which would only detract from
this rich flavor, it is dusted with cocoa powder. I once made
some chocolate cupcakes, which I dropped three of these into the
batter and blended them in. They were the best chocolate cupcakes
I ever tasted. This product can be eaten alone, or added to your
favorite recipe to only make it better. They make a wonderful
gift for the true chocolate lover. I never had anything else like
them.

Hi,
I've recieved my order and am enjoying the truffles from ChocMod
as I write this. Thank you very much for the fast service as well
as the care and pride you show in pakaging your merchandise. The
truffles arrived in perfect condition and I did follow the instructions
that were included with my order. I am also recomending you to
everyone I know via E-Mail and in person. =) I look forward to
ordering again soon.

On
my way back from National Art & Hobby on Magazine,
I decided to look into Blue Frog Chocolates. I expected
a little shop that did custom chocolate pouring, but I was
waaaaaay wrong. A craving for dark chocolate covered marzipan
made me walk in the door to kaleidescope of colors.
Every
candy you could think of! There are even items for less
than 50 cents. Designer candies, old tyme candies, pretty ones,
funny ones, sugar-free ones. I walked home with 4 dark choc covered
marzipans, 1/2 lb chocolate rum cordials and 2 dark chocolate
covered
apricots. Once upon a time you could only find the apricots at
the Maison Blanche candy counter. I oohed, ahhed and exclaimed
around
the place for about 30 minutes (so much to see). And they have
lots of
"not chocolate" goodies.
Of
course they do customized stuff (including chocolate coins/doubloons)
and gift baskets. Even if you're making your own gift baskets
but want
to include items that are quirky and tasty, Blue Frog is the place
to
go. A bag of green M&Ms? Another color? Body frosting and
chocolate
edible soap (heh heh). Accents for a birthday party or shower?
Y'all
MUST check this place out.
And,
by the way, the dark chocolate covered marzipan was
in-freakin-credible! (and will be for a few more minutes)

I
just wanted to say how beautiful my order is. I ordered the candy
flowers. I am very impressed. It is actually more beautiful than
on your website (which is nice). I do a lot of shopping on the
internet and will certainly pass your name along.
Thank you

Ann,
While in the store earlier I saw the pumpkin and casket chocolates
in the glass case. I, of course, had to try one of them. I opted
for the pumpkin and I must say it is one of the most unique flavors
I've had. Fantastic. You guys really have the best chocolates
around.

I
came across your site and just love it. I am amazed with the Jelly-bean
Elvis. Being a frog and Elvis lover I passed along the site address
to friends who love chocolate. I myself do not eat much of it,
but it sure looks good.

have eaten a whole lot of chocolate in my lifetime, all over the
world, and I have to say, those are - without question, the best

It is a pleasure doing business with you. Imagine, in this day
an age, finding a company that actually cares about its customers.

HI,
My name is Keith and I first visited your store on a Tuesday of
2004 and made a small purchase. I would just like for you to know
that the recipants of the chocolates were thrilled to death. "That's
the best chocolate in the world, especially the truffles",
was on of the quotes passed on to me. I guess I'll be a regular
customer from here on. So, if you even dare to change anything
about your products; don't. You will only spoil my fine selection
for things women adore and the reaction that I receive thereafter.
Thanks for reading my message to you and I'll see you soon.
Sincerly,
Keith

"Thank you so much for the goodies! Everyone agrees: the
chocolates are scrumptious, the non-pareils so pretty, and the
other treats—chocolate bark, malted milk balls, and chocolate
pear cabernet sauce!

wonderful, beautiful gift basket arrived at the end of the day
yesterday! What a fantastic treat. Rob and I huddled in his office
and gobbled up our favorite chocolates before sharing with the

Thank
you so much for your extraordinary personal service. Our daughter,
Jesse, called immediately after picking-up her Valentine's gift
bag from your store, and said that yours were the most beautiful
chocolates that she has ever received. The next day I received
a cell phone photo of her with a perfectly blue tongue, with the
caption "yummy" -- hmm, I wonder what she ate. Anyway,
thanks again for making it possible for us to share our love with
our valentine in such a beautiful and delicious way.
- Betty
p.s. I will absolutely stop in during my next visit to NO.

I
loved how Zapp’s Potato Chips and Blue Frog Chocolates conspired
together to make chocolate/chip heaven.
