Yay! This may not look like much, but it’s a pretty big deal to us. We’ve been working for the last few months to get our health permit to become fully legal to sell at farmer’s markets, retail stores, etc. We’ve started moving some of our larger machines to a commercial kitchen in San Jose, passed the food safety exams, and gotten high marks on our actual inspection. However, California has special food service rules called CalCode that require all machines to be NSF approved. Since chocolate-making equipment doesn’t generally exist on a super small scale, or when it does, it never has this certification, we had to hire third-party certification agencies and make some modifications before the machines could be approved. We’re excited and hopefully you will be seeing us at some new markets soon.
Happy for you both on your new life and adventure!
