Orange County Register Gift Guide for the Pandemic Holidays
Recchiuti was featured in this Orange County Register article highlighting California chocolatiers, who are shipping their sweets in time for the holidays.
"Michael Recchiuti started selling chocolates out of a cooler at the San Francisco Ferry Building farmers market before the famous food hall opened. Some 25 years later, his burnt caramel truffle remains a signature.
For the holidays, he’s offering Champagne Truffles made with blanc de noir sparkling wine from Schramsberg Vineyards, as well as pâte de fruits ($24) squares in vibrant flavors. 'They’re coated in granulated sugar, so it gives them a really beautiful crystally, sparkly look. That’s definitely a popular one for Hanukkah,' said Cara Loffredo, marketing and e-commerce manager."
