A big, squooshy thank-you to all the volunteers, organizers of the @sunshinecoastartcrawl AND sponsors @sunshineccu & @longmandevelopments all of whom bring this annual event together, mixing up all and putting on display ALL the mediums of the Coast. And thank-you also to the brave Crawlers who came out on the weekend to visit La Petite Souris chocolate. What an exciting and surprisingly busy weekend given the weather. Seems to me there's always some kind of a weath...er event.... but nothing, not snow, not rain, nor heat or gloom of night stays these crawlers from their appointed rounds. I had fun, lots of deep chats and even found myself as the third wheel in what I was sure were some awkward first dates. Thank you all, it is such a standout event for the Coast! See more
Mood Bars: Buy all 6 of the pandemic feels in one tidy package! I'm wrapping up little packages today! Gift your friends and family with some unsettled emotions wrapped in pretty paper. House specialty. Have to say the "Wake Me Up" bar is far and away the most popular! Of course I'm out of the cutest flying pig paper now, just a few left.. but I still have STICKERS so if you wanna get real crazy with me, we can plant apocalypse stickers on any of these bars. It will conf...use everyone but... ... I'm in a state of chronic confusion most of the time already, aren't you? See you soon! See more
Prepping, prepping, prepping! Packaging and cleaning for the Sunshine Coast Art Crawl beginning this Friday! I still have good amount of stock of all the things except of course sponge toffee which was gone in the blink of an eye... ... Chocolates, bars galore, ginger, many, many boxes of butter toffee & Halloween creepiness all ready to go! Very excited to see some happy faces. Remember, over the weekend I might have to limit numbers inside the shop as it's small. If you want to avoid the Crawl... come today or Thursday. Open all week 10-5 Open next week until October 30- my last day with regular hours! See more

Whats up, Halloweeners? This is the last Saturday to get in before Art Crawl. If you are looking to pick up some of these Halloween treats and aren't planning on coming by during the Crawl, I'd suggest popping in before next Friday as they always go quickly. Nothing too over the top for Halloween this year. I've got some inexpensive milk chocolate lollies and 3 packs in kid friendly flavours. ... Just your run of the mill spiders, witches, cats and skulls crying bloody tears of culpability for acts of wickedness betwixt all of humankind. nbd. There are enough scary things at the moment, personally I'm focusing my energy on finding new and exciting ways to numb-out. Store Hours: Tues - Fri 10-5 Sat: 11-4 Art Crawl Hours Oct 22/23/24 10-5 all days.

Lots of cute little things in store to help you forget that all of life is suffering. Or is it that once you've accepted that happiness is not good and sadness is not bad they both just are, as to all emotional stops along the way..only then can you live a life unencumbered by turmoil... Or is it that you are not your thoughts? ... Gah I can seriously never remember. Chocolozepam is back! Take two & call me in the morning. The store hours for October are: Tuesday to Friday: 10-5 Saturday: 11-4 Also by appointment. Come in and shop/ redeem those gift cards before I close October 30...

ARE WE THERE YET? Mood Bars are back with a pandemic-y kind of feel.... on the shelves today.... Come by this week and grab yours or swing by during the @sunshinecoastartcrawl October 22/23/24. If you're lucky I'll be white wine drunk. Unfortunately social anxiety in groups presents the very same symptoms so there's really no way of knowing.

We're open all weekend! Friday: 10-5, Sat: 10-4, Sunday: 11-3 Well I have lots to say about all the things but I guess I'll just let these bunnies faces tell you how I'm going into what is normally the busiest long weekend on the Coast.... Let's be extra safe and respectful of health guidelines and any special requests of businesses and workers that are serving you this weekend! For La Petite Souris this includes (as per the last 12 months), sanitizing upon entry, entering only when the last party has left, wearing a mask and being kind and respectful. We're all fed up with this pandemic, so let's just agree on that.
Support our local restaurants this looong weekend! Everyone's got their fridges full for a long-weekend of optimistic visioning and here we are... ...

Here are our 'posted' hours for the next few days. You may find me there before and after posted hours, and certainly can set something up if you aren't able to get here during these times. Inventory is showing as low on our website, so we can still have stock for our brick and mortar store, but check in if there is something specific you want as we may be hoarding a little bit. Use the technology to contact us! Don't forget, in Sechelt, @freshfromthecoast and @galianoital...ianomarket are both carrying some of our products. And our subscribers already know this, but our three piece samplers are on special. Buy four, get the fifth one F R E E. For a grand total of $27.30 including our beloved GST for five little gifts. You can't beat that unless you're into cheap cans of beer.

Take care of yourselves, slow down and keep your sense of humor about you. Make someone smile today. :)
It's not too late!! We're still boxing up chocolates for orders and walk-in customers.

Teal? Cerulean? Azure? ... Spring is here and we'll be back in the ocean soon. Who knows, maybe even travel to tropical climes will be available to those with the means. But in the meantime, surf the sugar wave on these oceanic malted-milk bon bons. They're milk chocolate with a creamy ganache center with that nostalgic taste of malt balls we all know and love at this time of year.
More mini-eggs!

Can the world handle the creepy, dire, macabre, eerie, disturbing month that is arriving as October, right now? Oh by golly I guess we will, and I know the socials will make it more ironic, satirical, and twisted than ever. Bless them. lol And so, here is our latest and greatest Fall themed chocolate for those of you who are a) old enough to remember the terrifying horror flick children of the corn or b) kind hearted community folk, wistful for some olde fashioned fall... faire action, and the accompanying treats that have been canceled by social distancing protocols.

Why yes step right up to a roasty-popped corn white chocolate ganache from the gorgeous Blanc Satin by @cacaobarryoffical and a second layer of slightly salty caramel.

PUMPKIN PRALINE: The spice is right. Our pumpkin-hazelnut bon bon takes on a new look to keep things bright as we head into the death throes of 2020. A milk chocolatey wonder with a delicately spiced ganache, a crunchy hazelnut praline base and finished in a touch of autumnal gold.

Appreciating the message of Diwali this year, as celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains around the world. The general themes of good overcoming evil and the dispelling of the darkness of ignorance within us, has never felt so vital. Our ongoing responsibility is to keep that light growing within ourselves & our communities. Happy Diwali ! ...

2/5 of these chocolates are dairy free. But we could up it to 5/5 if you want to pick up a l'il something for your friends who can't do dairy.

Happy to assist if need be :) and most especially if you are ordering online. Drop us a note in the "notes" section on the website, or call/email in advance and let us know your specificity.

I keep these images on my desk. They're postcards and found pieces I've collected and saved over the years. I realized recently the images speak (in no particular order) to: how I see myself, how I imagine people see me and how I wish I could see (be) myself. It's interesting to watch who's leading day to day,... hour to hour, moment to moment. Who's making the decisions, who's in charge today? It's always changing. We are not static beings. All this to say, sometimes managing emotions is a complicated artistry, keeping in concert with everything else that we do. I thought I’d be past amateur level by now. Sending a solidly connecting high five to anyone who can relate. And to everyone who seemingly has their shit sorted and are in service to the public, helping others thrive and survive every day. And yeah, when it’s easy times, chocolate celebrates and when it’s hard it commiserates.
Feeling a little more Fall-ish? Pumpkin Praline Bon Bons with a milk chocolate shell, pumpkin spice ganache and a hazelnut praline base are getting snuggled in our boxes now. ... Open for distanced shopping Tues-Sat OR curbside pick up. Shop our website: link in bio and select "in store pick up" .

Just back from a little sojourn into qathet Regional District. This was a much needed break from the tight little loop of home, work and the grocery store I've been circling for the past couple of months. Oh, and the impossibly fast (sometimes slow) hamster wheel of doom that is my mind on instagram/ global crisis of your choice. This summer has been one of many questions, "failures" (more on that later), identity crisis (maybe more on that later) and problem solving in ...a vacuum. But, it always amazes me how many answers come to me, when I walk away from my problems/questions. Or maybe they just get re-framed. In a time when an algorithm is doing a lot of thinking for us, and AI is pervasive, Covid keepin us scared and God knows what next in the usa, and our own Canadian disappointments, I know I'm not alone in feeling a bit.. A D R I F T But on the flip side, I'm in real gratitude to be here in this turbulent time, witnessing (and learning) foundational changes in the way humans understand each other & the planet & to have the privilege to be able to be a visitor to these quiet places (Tla'amin land) to listen to the wind and the water. In the spirit of stepping away from the machine... and recalibration, these are some photos from a few days away, showing that the Earth still is still alive, even if at times my soul feels like it needs adefibrillator. #tlaaminterritory #quathet #decolonize #naturefirst #evolution #change #useyourvoice #sunshinecoastbc #salishsea #collaboration #listen #wecanchange #tellyourstory
By far our most popular bar.... the seafoam colour , the pretty ocean theme and a touch of sea salt in milk chocolate & peanut buttery goodness.
It’s not ALL about chocolate, it’s also about finding what to wrap it in. Thank you @snowcapbc for helping us source our plastic-free papers direct from the manufacturer for our bars and delivering it to our door with a smile. As you can see I got excited when they arrived.
We are back, and what does that mean? Shop is open for business from Tues-Saturdays for social distanced shopping with one family group at a time. We're protocol-ing and sanitizing to the max and we don't like it, but... you do what you gotta do. Masks appreciated. It's been a good summer here at the shop. I finally bit the bullet and got some cooling in here, so... product wasn't melting and neither were we. As a result of this next level of commitment, we were busy and... ...as you probably didn't notice I didn't have a lot of time or energy for social media posts. (Way too much screen time these days so I took a big break!) But rest assured, we are here and lots of great stuff is rolling your way this season. Our website is open if you don't want to shop in store, but prefer curbside pick-up, or live off coast and would like to purchase for shipping. See ya soon
