With very little knowledge of how to make chocolate, but trusting their own, and their family and friends tastes, they went about searching for a master Chocolatier who would make their chocolates unique, delicious and memorable. After tasting dozens of chocolate samples from Master Chocolatiers around the world their quest quickly ended after tasting the samples of Master Chocolatier, Pete Machisco\u2019s, handmade chocolates. His fresh handmade chocolates had intense chocolate flavor combined with rich smoothness. They now had their Master Chocolatier and were ready to start making gourmet chocolates and gifts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Bradley Chocolatier\u00a0has been producing\u00a0gourmet\u00a0hand-crafted chocolates for over\u00a045 years.
