Friday Freebie: Droga Confections Giveawayfeatured
Happy Friday, friends!
Phew! What a week it has been. First off, I just need to say…you guys are just awesome. I have gotten so much wonderful feedback and shout outs and high-fives about Appetites, I am just feelin the love, peoples! You rock. Thanks to your support, Appetites is App of the Week on iTunes, yayy! If you’ve had the chance to check it out, please leave a review 🙂
OK, now on to some Friday Freebie sugar.
Today we are featuring a kickass local SF company called Droga Confections. We totally fell for their homemade chocolate treats at the Fancy Food Show a few months ago, particularly, their sassily named Put Your Money on Honey salted caramel chews.
Soft and chewy, Put Your Money on Honey is made with Northern California wildflower honey, giving them an unexpected lovely floral sweetness. The honey caramel chews are then enrobed in premium Guittard dark chocolate, and sprinkled with French fleur de sel. They’re handmade with love and 100% natural ingredients in small batches.
