Our golden-rich toffee is hand-dipped in luscious Ruby chocolate and topped with delicious dried raspberries and pistachios. It offers a new, intense sensorial taste experience. About Ruby Chocolate: After dark, milk and white, ruby is the most uncommon chocolate discovery in 80 years.

This gift of mother nature surprises and bedazzles with a completely new chocolate taste and colour experience, born from the ruby cocoa bean - without adding any colourants or fruit flavourings.Happy by Chocolate started when a small act of kindness inspired two master chocolatiers and two passionate creatives to join forces to bring more HAPPY to the world.
Our handmade Oreo Cookie Butter blended with 62% dark chocolate, topped with crushed Oreos and a touch of Truffle Salt. Fun fact: It's a traditional & vegan customer favorite. Please note: This product is not gluten-free. Our artisan dark chocolate Salted Oreo Bark is available in 3 sizes: 1/2 lb, 1 lb and 2 lb sizes.
We're putting a modern twist on a candy classic - all-new ruby chocolate coats our award-winning English toffee, for a slightly tart and fruit-forward taste. It's topped with pistachios and dried raspberries for added delight. Gift Box size selections: 1/2 lb. 1 lb & 2 lb. Our one of a kind confection - our award-winning toffee recipe is hand-dipped in the unique Ruby Chocolate Couverture, lightly topped with pistachio nuts and dried raspberries.
Due to a printing error, a small batch of Happy by Chocolate products were sold with next to "Happy by Chocolate", instead of TM. At this time, Chocolate Inspirations, LLC does not have an active trademark registration for the "Happy by Chocolate" mark, we but are excited to pursue federal registration.

We have worked with many local Illinois companies and others across the country.

DO NOT again DO NOT spend your money here. Drove over an hour to get sugar free chocolates only to be told they do not have any; you have to special order sugar free chocolate. No where on there web site is this mentioned. NEVER PATRONIZE THIIS ESTABLISHMENT.

Chocolate Inspirations is quite simply amazing! I ordered vegan chocolates as stocking stuffers for my daughter for Christmas ~ the Artisan Italian Orange Bar, the Peppermint Bark treat bag and the Salted Oreo Bark treat bag ~ and she loved everything! She left a little of the Oreo Bark and my husband and I (who are not vegan) devoured it! On top of that, I received my order with a handwritten thank you note (such a nice, personal touch) and a sample bag of their vegan caramel corn ~ it was delicious! Excellent customer service and amazing chocolates. I will definitely order from here again and

I had some chocolates sent to my vegan boyfriend and he LOVED them!! Chocolate Inspirations provided a great variety of different vegan options and everything tasted wonderful. My favorite were the peanut butter pillows and his was the mandarin oat bar. We had these chocolates shipped all the way to California and they held up great! I highly recommend this shop - especially for your chocolate loving vegan friends!

I LOVE Chocolate Inspirations! They have such a large variety and their chocolate is to die for! They are usually paired with Pollyanna in the Downtown Roselle Progressive Dinners and add the perfect touch to the event! They delivered on Valentine’s Day to my husband’s work and the tower of chocolate arrangement was perfect and affordable! I was also just at an event where they were selling chocolate shot glasses! So good! I’ll definitely be placing an order for Easter this year as I don’t see myself shopping at this time! Don’t wait, try their chocolate today if you haven’t yet!

Can't speak for the non-vegan chocolate (I eat that too) but the vegan stuff is ***amazing***. Like I'd finish a 5 star dinner with this stuff, it's so damn good. Don't know how you put campfire in chocolate toffee but please keep doing it!!!
