What does Spring mean to you?</h3>
<p>To us, and we have big talks about this, Spring has clean, fresh thoughts.  Light, bright, and fun.  Spring stepped through on the calendar a few weeks ago but the climate is still figuring it out here in the Carolina&#8217;s and much of the Northern Hemisphere.  We&#8217;re still glad to be in transition though.</p>
<p>At the end of a season we feel the call to shift.  Everyone around us does from working through closets, a clean home, an office where you can find the paperwork, our farmer friends planting seeds, to the foods that you start getting a hankering for (grill night anyone?).</p>
<p>Where do you fall in the Spring lineup?  Anything you miss that you welcome back with open arms?</p>
<p>As things shift we begin to dream of the new flavors we want to explore or some signatures to bring back.  Not having a shop means we can&#8217;t have as diverse a selection as we would like.  Great things take time, we understand, but that doesn&#8217;t mean we have to stifle our creativity.  We just have to dole it out sparingly across the months.</p>
<p>We hope we can entice you to try some of our <a target="_blank" href="http://www.thesecretchocolatier.com/products/chocolate-truffles-1oz">Spring chocolates</a>. The organic Violet flowers truffles are a becoming quite a hit this season.  Followed by Pink Grapefruit, Chai, &amp; Vanilla Bean.</p>
