While undeniably adorable, these artisan chocolates have more than the cute factor working in their favor.

Trusted Honey

John and Kira source their honey from Trickett Honey & Beekeeping, a Philadelphia-based company, and Draper Apiaries, a family-run apiary that has produced natural, raw honey since 1974. Three generations of Drapers - Bernie, Bill, and Royal - now work together in rural Pennsylvania to produce up to 110,000 pounds of honey a year. Just a small point of buzz-worthy interest: Draper Apiaries are the preferred suppliers of honey to the White House. Following through to the very last detail, these bees arrive in thoughtful packaging with as much whimsy as the edibles themselves.
