Here’s a few of our favorite quotes and bits of media coverage.
"Diva Chocolates introduces us to a line of chocolate grilling rubs that is a balanced blend of the feminine and masculine, the sublime and the sexy, and heaven and earth."
- GrillingMoJo.com
"... it does smell great. It smells even better when it hits the grill ...I can say it was one of the best steaks I’ve had." - Chocolate Obsession
“Chocolate Jerky Anyone? A chocolate company is hoping for success with the launch of a new line of chocolate beef jerky.” - Meatinfo.co.uk
"There are some new divas in town, and they are sweeeeet … These Divas believe chocolate should be eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner – not just for dessert. (Amen!)"
- Portlandpicks.com
"Another strange meat product … We like beef jerky, but we’ve never asked what’s actually IN it; finding
out might take away from the enjoyment. But the ladies at Diva Chocolates.com have no such qualms, as they
roll out their latest offering, Chocolate Beef Jerky." - Short Takes
It’s not every day we sidle up to a celeb … but when we do, we make sure to put our arms around them.
Things are going great at Diva Chocolates and we’re busier than every. In June we launched our jerky nationally, and we’re working with several rep’s who are looking at taking our new chocolaty meat snack to grocery, gift and specialty stores near you. We’ve also had several near-brushes with celebrities, who we’re sure are lovin’ our rubs. So, we’re not super connected … we’ll take what we can get!
Silver screen Diva Ellen Burstyn a Diva Chocolates Fan? Well, we don’t actually know, but what we do know is that we received an invitation of one of her swanky parties (pays to know family members), and we hand delivered a fabulous Diva Chocolates basket filled with our chocolate goodies. We know it made it as far as the table in her entryway. So who knows … other party guests – Alec Baldwin and Al Pacino -- may have also peaked at our label and are now ordering with pseudo names … you never know!
Rachel Ray takes a nibble …okay not actually. But the products editor is interested in showcasing Diva Chocolates jerky in her magazine. Check out your newsstand in early ’08.
Julie has becoming somewhat of a celebrity on her own account. She’s gotten connected on the tradeshow speaker circuit! Check her out at the next gift show for her live chocolate grilling demo and one-woman monolog on this history and health attributes of chocolate.
