We love supporting small breweries and vineyards who are off the beaten path!  We love to create community, try new things, and have some fun along the way.

​Thank you for trying all our weird beers and weird ideas.

WISH YOU WERE BEER:
Jeff & Sarah


Chocolate has been the "soundtrack" to some of our happiest moments -- it's how we connect with the people and the places we love.  When our son Mateus ("Tay") was 2 years old we discovered he had severe peanut allergies -- this changed everything.  Holidays and family celebrations would usually end up with Tay in tears, heartbroken because he couldn't eat most of the candy and desserts everyone was enjoying.  We became determined as parents to make sure he was able to enjoy delicious treats as much as we could.


​Peanut-free chocolate and confections were limited in 2009, leaving us with very few options to choose from.  Danielle encouraged Matthew (who has always loved baking, cooking, and experimenting in the kitchen) to enroll in L'Ecole Chocolat's "Professional Chocolatier Program."  Upon graduating valedictorian in his class,  Matthew began to teach Danielle how to make bon bons, chocolates, and confections.  In our attempt to make safe and delicious treats for our son, we fell in love with candy making.  In 2012, we moved our growing family from Brooklyn, NY to Chapel Hill and turned our family hobby into Chocolatay Confections.

Flavor of the Week: Chocolatay Confections - Chapelboro - January 26, 2017
"With the idea to reinvent nostalgic chocolates, Matthew went back into the kitchen where he conceived Chocolaty’s best-selling sea salt caramels and peppermint patties, among many other allergen-free handmade chocolates. Using organic and local ingredients as much as possible – their all natural chocolates and confections are thoughtfully made with GMO-free ingredients."

Say Yes to the Chef - WCHL - September 17, 2016
​Danielle had the pleasure of sitting down with Chef Kelly Taylor and Chef Janice Escott from "Say Yes to the Chef" to discuss all things chocolate: what inspired Chocolatay, the importance of reading food labels, favorite candies, and more.

Listen to the show...
