I saved the best item in the Marcenet Mercantile shipment for last: Bourbon Marshmallow Millionaire Shortbread. @hollyoreilly.bsky.social, I eagerly await your return to chocolate-making (and thanks for letting me nick your photo!).

A few Bourbon Marshmallow Millionaire Shortbreads on a kitchen table, one split in two to reveal the thick shortbread base topped with rich caramel and puffy marshmallow, all enrobed in dark chocolate. Trust me: it tastes even better than it looks.

Rough day yesterday, but I got home to find a box from @hollyoreilly.bsky.social’s Marcenet Mercantile and I had a Belgian Chocolate Covered Marshmallow and… well, the warning sticker was correct.

A circular black and white sticker on an off-white box: “Warning! Opening this package will cause extreme happiness”

4/ If the price of chocolate falls, we may reopen the chocolate part of the business in the fall. There are few things in this world I love to do than being a chocolate maker and a chocolatier. I am heartbroken. marcenetmercantile.com/p/cherry-blo...

3/ We've made the decision to close up the chocolate part of our shop after that chocolate is gone, which we estimate will be about 2 weeks. marcenetmercantile.com/p/mendiants/...

2/ Chocolate makers saw this coming. After Christmas, I bought 100 lbs of chocolate at a slightly elevated price, but nothing like what it is today. marcenetmercantile.com/p/bourbon-ma...

1/ As most of you probably know, I own a bakery/chocolate shop called @Marcenetmerc marcenetmercantile.com Because of the threat of tariffs on agricultural goods and the effects of climate change, chocolate prices are at a 50-year high. You can read about it more here.

5/ It's going to be a great spring and summer of berry picking and jam and jelly making. Hell, if the price of eggs ever comes down, we'll be making cookies as well. ♥️https://marcenetmercantile.com/p/lemon-saffron-marmalade/7gn5z83J9sqS2LLGLVkS

I'm in the middle of my third COVID infection. It's not going great. Please send good thoughts, chicken soup, dog pics, and a time machine so I can get past the suck and back to my life again. I developed long covid after my second infection. It took months before the POTS symptoms subsided.

Aww! That makes me so happy! I love seeing the reviews come in once a big order goes out. We had 40 rather large orders last week and we *just* got the last one sent out this morning, so time for a break? LOL, no. The orders keep coming! 😆 I blame/thank @fpwellman.bsky.social for spreading the word!
