Pavonia is on maternity leave, as our newest little chocolatiere has arrived! Please contact me at amanda [!at] pavoniaconfections.com for any unique requests.
Attention local shoppers! Please use coupon code "local" for no shipping charge if you'd like to meet at a pick-up location in Yardley, to be determined via convo.
Our ganaches are made with fresh cream and butter, and as such, have about a four-week shelf-life at room temperature. Refrigerating will extend the shelf-life to about two months, and freezing will keep them indefinitely. When freezing/defrosting, please follow these simple tips:
1. Refrigerate for 24 hours
2. Freeze indefinitely
3. Defrost in the refrigerator for 24 hours
4. Keep at room temperature for 24 hours
5. Enjoy at room temperature!
All truffles and bon-bons are made to be enjoyed at room temperature for the optimum flavor release.
**Note: We reimburse shipping overages, as Etsy does not allow shipping calculations based on multiple items in one package.

1 out of 5 starsIt didn’t have much of a chocolate taste.
Amanda responded on Jun 16, 2021
I am sorry the drinking chocolate was not very chocolatey. We pride ourselves on exhaustive taste-testing to create a product that will make *almost* everybody happy. I reached out to confirm directions were followed; they were. You explained that there was nothing wrong with the product, but that it was just too sweet/not chocolatey enough. You described your go-to: a paste made from Hershey's unsweetened chocolate and water added to milk. It makes sense my product would be too sweet/not chocolatey enough for you since the ingredients of my mix include quite a bit of sugar! I hope this one-star review doesn't dissuade most of us who like sweet hot chocolate from giving it a try, and hope you might consider a 3-star rating for something that simply wasn't to your taste in the future.

5 out of 5 starsThis is amazing!!! Better than I expected. Intend to purchase this again near the holidays. It would make a great gift or part of a larger gift basket.

1 out of 5 starsExtremely poor service. The shop owner did not have the listing updated to ship free for orders over $35, and instead, placed the blame on Etsy while also updating the listing after the cancellation. Ironically, if I had placed an order over $35 she would still be paying a large amount for shipping, so the argument is not air tight whatsoever. I also would have expected a refund sooner, but I suppose many Etsy shop owners have lives outside of the shop and are trying to make extra money. Regardless, as a former Etsy shop trying to reenter and as a frequent buyer, I find this shift of blame to be unacceptable. I will not shop here ever. I will instead be purchasing from Dandelion Chocolates in SF, as they actually offer free shipping and that is what my dad enjoys. So much for trying something new and supporting a small shop.

Thank you for your review. I'm so sorry you are unhappy with the service provided. Once I realized I would not be able to fulfill your order as it did not meet the $35 requirement for free shipping, I cancelled the transaction and issued a full refund. I'm sorry this resolution was so disappointing. This is the first time this situation has occurred and I have since made sure it won't happen again. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
