Smell of chocolate-making in the mountain air

The next time you are flying first class and happen to sit next to the president of Intuit (Quicken Software), he might be popping a bonbon made in Charleston, WV. Scribner Chocolates was founded to make beautiful and tasty chocolates for the peanut- and tree nut-free crowd but has grown a broader following, just because they are good! Founders Debbie and David Miller are considering a location in the area and their products can already be found at Canaan Valley State Park's gift shop. I had some buttercreams and almost couldn't stop eating long enough to interpret the color coded exteriors. On their web site you can find gifts that will stuff more than stockings...the petite buttercreams, truffles, dark and milk chocolates and crown caramel.
