How Much Do You Know About Jamaican Chocolatiers?!

One One Cacao

• Founder: Nick Davis
• BBC Caribbean’s correspondent
• Currently working on Production of Coffee in addition to his Chocolate Bars
• Factory in St. Mary overlooks the sea
• Started making Chocolate after he got a mystery illness, where he could no longer eat foods with preservatives
• He never thought he could give up Cadbury Dairy Milk, but when he decided to make his own Chocolate, he told Suga it was the best he has ever had. The need for sweet preservatives or artificial flavours was replaced by an appreciation for rich, strong, Dark Chocolate.

• Persons who make the switch to Dark Chocolate from Milk Chocolate with artificial flavours may find it bitter, but once you keep having it, you will love and appreciate the richness of Dark Chocolate like myself and Nick.

Fun Fact:
Without getting access to Likkle More Chocolate, the majority of Suga tasters voted One One Cacao as the richest Dark Chocolate in Jamaica, May 25, 2019.

• Nick Davis wants Jamaican Chocolate to go global and be recognised as much as Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, because we have some of the world’s finest Cocoa.
• Nick helps local Cocoa farmers by paying them a decent price.
• His Chocolate is 70% Cocoa
• Cane juice is used to sweeten the rest

Outland Hurders Creamery and Farmstead with Jamaican made cheeses as well as Chorlavi’s with Homemade Pepper Jellies and Jams will be there too!

Ashurii Designs Handmade Sketchbooks has GW Art Itching to Sketch a New Collection!

Ashlee Douillard had her aha moment to start her own line of sketchbooks in 2013, while studying architecture and there was a continuous need for quality sketch pads.

It wasn’t until 2017 when she started to sell them and saw that this could be a lucrative business for her. Her line of handmade books, Ashurii Designs,  include ruled journals and planners in various sizes that can be customised as well. They showcase the work of various young, local artists.

Handmade books with customized quotes that we love are also available by Ashurii Designs

This initiative is Ashlee’s creative way to fund school supplies and her masters degree.

I finally got my customised, handmade sketchbook from Ashurii Designs a few weeks ago that had to have pink material. This was before she started advertising customised quotes and more on her books though, so can’t wait get more! Who knows, maybe GW Art will be a part of an Ashurii Designs handmade book soon too.

Suga Endorses Leather Sandals from Jan’s Accents!

20180928_060315
Suga a.k.a. Gabby from Suga Lifestyle sporting her Handmade Leather Sandals in different shades of blue from Jan’s Accents

I needed a durable, affordable pair of comfortable blue sandals that would go with a range of items from my wardrobe.

Jan’s Accents had a variety of sandals to choose from, but I wanted a pair that wasn’t a gladiator type, i.e. strapped up to my ankle in case I wished to wear the sandals with jeans, leggings etc.

I found just the pair.

Janice Forrester, Owner and Manager of Jan’s Accents also said she had the perfect blend of blue shades for me and I trusted her judgement.

She facilitated sizing the sandals to fit me just right and worked quickly within an estimated time frame. I received efficient service along with unique, stylish sandals that had a comfortable fit enhanced by soft padding in the soles. They were affordable, costing less than $10,000JMD and this was all topped off by Janice’s confident, but bubbly and pleasant personality, which had me ordering more!

Get your Handmade Leather Sandals and more from Jan’s Accents today!
