Ever Dreamed Of A House Made Of Chocolate? Now You Can!

Some of us fail to realize that there is a world outside of the downtown Vancouver core. However, these smaller communities and cities are the ones who are being neglected during the holiday season see link. So, to encourage your donations and support to our local community foodbank, we are giving you a little incentive... A chocolatey prize of course! A traditional #gingerbread house is fun to make, but wouldn't you rather one of our decadent, #organic #chocolate houses? Well you can!

This chocolate house has been very carefully crafted by the staff at Cocoa West using the finest organic chocolate - dark, milk and white.  It would be an impressive show piece for any families #Christmas day!

What To Donate:

Of course we will accept any donations, however there are some things that are needed a little more than others. Here are a few to give you an idea:
  • Canned meat and fish
  • Whole wheat pasta and rice
  • Canned fruit and vegetables

How To Enter:

Simply bring a non-perishable food items to Cocoa West and we will enter you in a draw to #win!

How To Win:

Since we want to make it fair for those that cannot afford to donate their whole cupboard, we will be randomly pulling entry ballots on December 24th! So, get your donations in before then!!

Help make brighten someone's #holiday season and donate!


You may also purchase these chocolate houses for $150.00... but we still encourage donations!!

CAN'T MAKE IT TO BOWEN?

Medium Box
Since some of you can't always escape to beautiful Bowen Island everytime you need a Cocoa West fix, we will bring it to you! We are now accepting orders for our boxes of chocolates and will bring them with us to the market on North Shore Green Market days (dates are on Facebook). Boxes will be comprised of our Maitre Chocolatier's special selection of seasonal truffles.

New Package :D
Also... we will be bringing the whole collection of our super delicious hot chocolates! Come by to check out the new packaging and try the fabulous new blends! The deadline for orders is Thursday evenings and can be placed via contact@cocoawest.com or by telephone: 604.947.2996


This week we will be featuring our Bombay Truffle, if you don't remember it's a creamy milk chocolate ganache, infused with aromatic chai and black tea and then finished with our signature bombay cocoa powder. Yum!


Hope to see you there!
