St. Croix Chocolate Company wins Gold and Silver awards

Just a week later, St. Croix Chocolate Company won more accolades. At the prestigious Academy of Chocolate Awards, judged in London, SCCC further enhanced its reputation by winning two silver medals: One for Orange Cardamom caramel sauce in the Caramels and Spreads category, and one for Thai Peanut bon bon in the Filled Chocolates category. Additionally, the Black Forest bon bon won a bronze award for Filled Chocolates.

Launched in 2005, the Academy of Chocolate awards seek to identify, recognize and showcase the world’s most talented chocolate producers and finest chocolate. The awards draw thousands of entries each year.

“This is the first year St. Croix Chocolate Company has entered these two competitions,” said Robyn Dochterman, founder and chocolatier at SCCC. “I’m so delighted and honored that we did well in both contests. It really sends a message that we’re on the right track, that we’re creating delicious fine chocolates that are also technically advanced. And that is especially heartening, given the challenges of the last year.”

St. Croix Chocolate Company was founded by Dochterman in 2010, and is no stranger to excelling in tough competitions. It has won a national Good Food Award, a gold and silver in the International Chocolate Awards, a gold in the national Scovie Awards for hot foods, and numerous golds, including Best Overall Truffle, in the International Chocolate Salon Awards. It also won the Best New Dessert Sauce at the international Sofi (Specialty Food Association) Awards in the Spring of 2021.

St. Croix Chocolate Company’s mission is to delight customers with its premium chocolates, bon bons and caramel sauces. The company operates a brick and mortar shop in the village of Marine on St. Croix, about 35 miles from Minneapolis and St. Paul, as well as an e-commerce site at http://www.stcroixchocolateco.com.
