"The Health Benefits of Chocolate"

An article by Chocolaterie Wanders and our dietitian Alison Sturm.

Chocolaterie Wanders offers you the world's finest handmade gourmet chocolates.

Masters in the fine art of great chocolate, Chocolaterie Wanders is comprised of artisan chocolatiers trained in traditional European methods. We import our raw chocolate from the finest purveyors and hand-craft our chocolate truffles and confections in small batches to ensure exquisite taste and freshness.

Taste our tradition - Embrace and savor history.

The Wanders family of Elten, Germany, has been making chocolate confections since 1726. Continuing the tradition, descendant Wilhelm Wanders and his wife, Melanie, who live in Bristow, have started a candy business they call Chocolaterie Wanders.

Those who like strong flavors will appreciate the Earl Grey tea dark chocolate, flavored with local wildflower honey. Our favorite may be the creamy milk chocolate ganache with a hint of cinnamon.
