*** Note: I am not 100% positive that I am the first US chocolatier to accept bitcoins. I have searched Google for a while, and I'm pretty sure I am the first. Please inform us immediately if we're not the FIRST chocolatier in the US who accepts bitcoins!

I guess it depends on your definitions, but http://www.statelesssweets.com/ has been accepting bitcoin for a while. If you consider them a chocolatier or not is up to you  Smiley but I am a fan of theirs. Hopefully I can soon try yours and become a fan too.

Thanks for info.  I checked them out but can not really frame them.  Kind of mystery but searching through Internet data it seems safe to say that I am the first US certified chocolatier taking BitCoins! 


mmmmm my favorite.  Grin will check it out

Thanks, any time!

sounds really cool... hopefully more follow suit.

With a 'bit' of patience I'm sure it will

From 1 Belgian to another : geweldig! Petje af hiervoor Smiley

He, Bedankt (Antwerpen? mijn geboorte stad. eigenlijk Wilrijk)



Have you looked into/seen CoinKite and their upcoming system for merchants utilizing Bitcoin?  Really neat hardware they have in development.
Anyways congrats on your business and best of luck in regards to Bitcoin.

Thanks, I'll do!

Yum!

Next time we are in NY for business we will have to make a trip Wink

Great, free sample if you do!

I just wanted to congratulate you on being a pioneer and wanted to wish you luck with your business!

Next time I'm in NJ, I'll try to stop by!

Thanks, stop by and you'll get a free sample!

Hell ya will be ordering from y'all in the near future (dogecoins.) 

Hopefully we'll accept them within a month
Thumbs up!  Just out of curiosity are you keeping the coins or converting all or some to fiat through bitpay or similar service?

We're testing bitpay for now and see how we will manage it in the future

I’m "JP" Hepp, the owner of Chocodiem in Clinton, NJ. At Chocodiem I make Belgian artisan chocolates in my store's small kitchen, and now we're the first US chocolate company who accepts bitcoin payments!

I was born in Belgian and lived there for more than 40 years. I have always loved real Belgian chocolate, and now I am selling Belgian-style chocolates in America after acquiring 8 chocolatier certificates from Belgian, Canadian, and Ecuadorian artisan chocolate making schools.

Chocodiem is a small chocolate company with only a few part-time workers. We opened our storefront on August 6th, 2012.
I hand-make Belgian-style pralines, truffles, and other chocolates myself in small batches, and occasionally my pastry chef helps make them.

At www.chocodiem.com you can now use bitcoins to buy chocolates, gift certificates, chocolate-making class tickets, and more. Our online store officially launched on Dec 11th, 2013. We currently only ship to the United States, and we are working on making chocolates that have the bitcoin logo!

5% off online store coupon for bitcoin users: chocodiem-bitcointalk-5
Expires 2/1/2014 - Limited to 100 uses.

Joe K. was the first customer to buy chocolates with bitcoins (on November 20th, 2013.) Thanks Joe!

Also, for DogeCoin fans we have a doge chocolate bar:

(Someone please make a DogeCoin Woocommerce plugin so we can accept DogeCoin payments online!)

What's new at Chocodiem:
See our 15 new exclusive alcohol-infused truffles http://www.chocodiem.com/product-category/chocolate-truffles/ or our Christmas chocolates http://www.chocodiem.com/product-category/christmas-chocolates/!

I heard someone say that dogecoin is the gateway drug to bitcoin. It just might be  Smiley

Hello. I've been a long time lurker on this site and I'm finally posting now!

I'm a big bitcoin fan even though I only mine with one block erupter to support bitcoins.

I'm also a Belgian artisan chocolatier and have a storefront in Clinton, New Jersey...
I'm now accepting bitcoins in my store  Smiley

I hope to meet fellow coin enthusiasts here.
