For some reason Facebook is not saving my store hours ??? We are open for curb side pick up Tuesday to Friday from noon to 5pm until the Stay at Home order is lifted in May.
All set for this afternoon’s Discover the World of Chocolate virtual tasting with people from Newfoundland to B.C with stops in every province!
Working on new possibilities. New ways to enjoy chocolate, cheese, meat and more!
Baking? Need chocolate? We’re back in stock with 55% and 70% chocolate pastilles and Marou cocoa powder. Not available online but call or email [email protected] and pick up curb side.
Boxes mailed out Friday for a virtual Chocolate tasting for 40 people across Canada! organized by an Association doing an industry webinar looking for a fun way to finish the afternoon. Looking for something fun to do with colleagues??? This is the answer.
New day, new rules. With the revised government restrictions and a stay-at-home order, we cannot welcome you into our store, so sorry. However you can still get your hands on great chocolate by ordering online, by phone or send me an email. Curb side pick up, local delivery and shipping are all options. #iscovidoveryet #chocolatesoothesthesoul #lovelocal
Following the new provincial restrictions, we are still open but restricting number of people in our store. Before the week-end, we were at 50% capacity of 2 households, 2 people each. NOW we are welcoming 1 household of 2 people max in our small store. Please consider shopping online instead. We're happy to deliver locally or ship across Canada. We'll be adding new bars and updated availability shortly. If you don't see what you are looking for, just call and we'll help you with a phone order. Curb side pick up is still an option. We're here Tuesday to Friday 11 to 6 and Saturday 10 to 5.
Yeah - what she said :) And we're here until 5 today.
Hi all, just a heads up, and you probably know, we are closed tomorrow for Good Friday. We hope you enjoy the day! Back in on Saturday from 10 to 5 with restricted capacity in place. If you are shopping for chocolate for the holidays you might want to call ahead or order online for curb side or in store pick up. We are sold out of much of our Easter themed chocolate but of course still have lots of other options! Here's the Easter box we still have a few of, filled with bunnies, eggs and bars. Great gift and perfect for sharing!
Proud to be on display this beautiful Raspberry Vanilla Bunny will be the star in your holiday chocolate basket! Only 2 left...
Happy National Chocolate Mint Day! We thought we’d throw in a twist to today’s celebration and introduce the Atacama Rica Rica bar from ÓBOLO Chocolate. The rica rica herb is a rare, rustic and mildly minty wild herb from the world’s driest desert! Desert Spearmint
Happy National Drink Wine Day! No, I didn't make it up but I do love whoever did! Want some pairing suggestions to make this day even better? Have a read... https://jojococo.ca//discover-/chocolate-and-wine-pairings
So Sunday was Valentine's Day, Monday was Family Day and today is Random Acts of Kindness. Three days to show (and receive) love. What a great way to start the week. And tomorrow? It's National Drink Wine Day. Friday? National Chocolate Mint Day Saturday? National Love your Pet Day.... I think this is the BEST WEEK EVER! Enjoy it!
Heads up! We are closed tomorrow, Tuesday Feb 16, despite the fact that we are now allowed to be open. Just need a break from last week’s crazy busyness. Thank you so much for celebrating Valentines Day with our chocolate! Much appreciated. Going to put up our feet for a day and we’ll see you on Wednesday. Doors open at 11am and we look forward to seeing you!
January 2 brings a great day. Beautiful sunshine, fresh snow and warm temperatures. Jack sums it up quite well I think!
A great day in the fresh snow and beautiful sunshine. Jack sums it up!
These boxes are flying out the door! And why wouldn't they?? Strawberry, champagne and pop rocks. What eating a glass of champagne should taste like! Available in store on on line https://jojococo.ca//winter-c/products/holdsworth-truffles
Happy first day of the new year. Took the dog for a walk this morning and saw more activity on the Beaver Pond than we have seen in years. Felt like a throwback to when the pond had a change hut, snow clearing and ice maintenance. Now the community is taking care of it for all to enjoy. Jack couldn't resist joining in!
Our newest blog s now on our website. A quick read about how we got into pairing chocolate with cheese and how delicious a combo they are! https://jojococo.ca//discover/chocolate-and-cheese-pairing
Tomorrow, on Remembrance Day, we will remain closed until 12:3pm.
Happy New Year to all! Thank you for your support this year! Sending you best wishes for a healthy, happy new year. Cheers!

Phone orders are welcome. ... Curb side pick up, local deliveries and shipping across Canada are options for getting your order. Any questions please call 613 435 7722 from 12 to 5 or leave a message any time. Thanks!
An amazing new box of chocolates from @Holdsworth Hand Made English Chocolates. Espresso Martini Cocktail Truffles in white, milk and dark chocolate ganache combined with aromatic coffee, a dash of vodka and topped with a gold dusted coffee bean. Yes, this box is missing 2 pieces. Couldn't help myself :)... Available in store only. Limited quantities.
We're taking appointments! Yup, private shopping. Just you and me in the store. Very Covid Cool. You can call to book a half hour slot (or more if you think you'll need it) and you can get your Holiday shopping done in one trip with no one else around. And no waiting outside to come in. Appointments are available starting Tuesday November 4. You can choose a Tuesday or Wednesday evening from 6pm to 9pm or a Thursday or Friday morning from 9am to noon. Call 613-435-7722 to book. We'll still be open to the public from 12 to 6 Tuesdays to Saturdays and keeping it to 2 households in the store at a time.
What a difference a day makes Thanks Gem Chocolates for the refill!
It’s a beautiful day in so many ways! It’s Saturday, the sun is shining and our shelves of Palette de Bine are full again!
Spent Sunday trying out some new Chocolate pairings to write the next blog. Worked our way through through 6 bars and 2 scotches (not the whole bottle!) and came away with some interesting pairings you can soon read about :)
Check out our most recent blog on Chocolate & Wine Pairings. https://jojococo.ca//discover-/chocolate-and-wine-pairings
The distinguished look of new arrivals from Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate. Milk Ginger Snap, dark Orange Bourbon Pecan and the limited edition Bourbon Whisky 70% bar. And a personal favourite... the drinking chocolate made with 72% Belize cocoa!
Do I dare say it? It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
Hope everyone had an enjoyable long weekend! I spent a good part of Sunday at Jabulani Vineyard & Winery tasting a beautiful soon to be released red and pairing it with chocolate. Delicious way to spend an afternoon. Oh and yes we have some great new pairings to share with you soon!
Happy Thanksgiving!Happy Thanksgiving!
With Thanksgiving on the horizon, you might be thinking about cooking a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. During our chocolate and wine pairings our sommelier Robert always mentions other foods you can pair with the wines we are using for chocolate pairings. When the zinfandel pairing comes up, Robert notes that this wine is a great pairing with a turkey dinner. Choose the Ravenswood Old Vine Zinfandel LODI but if you can't find this one (not always available), the Gnarly Head Wines has an Old Vine Zinfandel that will also work beautifully! Oh, and it also pairs well with Hummingbird Chocolate Maker Tumaco 70% and MAROU, Faiseurs de Chocolat Tien Giang 70%, so now you have dessert too :)
The beauty of Soma Chocolate - from delicious chocolate to beautiful packaging to thoughtful messages.
Last year on this week-end we held the first The Ottawa Chocolate Show in partnership with DesBarres Chocolate and the many talented chocolate makers and chocolatiers in Ottawa and across Canada. We were so hoping to repeat it this year, on this week-end but...well, you know. Here's to last year and next year!
Just added a blog to our website. If you're interested in white chocolate check it out! https://jojococo.ca//discover-/white-chocolate-bean-to-bar
The next time you drop in don’t forget to pick up your free copy of Edible Ottawa magazine! The new edition is out and it’s full of places to go to get good eats, have a drink and explore new places in the region. And learning! Do you know about sea buckthorn??
Love it when a customer comes back in when the packages and includes comments about the bars! Thanks Shelley! And I agree - the QANTU, cacao et chocolat is fantastic!
