The Cowboy Chocolatier

For the love of chocolate, I drive to a lovely hamlet named Meeteetse (pop. 351), about 45 minutes from my home. The sweetest spot in town is a gourmet chocolate shop owned by Tim Kellogg, who is known around Wyoming as the "Cowboy Chocolatier."

Tim has a glorious array of confections that he prepares daily. In addition to his luscious truffles, there are way too many divine creations for me to list here; but of interest to me this month are all the beautiful chocolates he has for Easter - adorable white chocolate bunnies, chocolate eggs, chocolate farm animals - that will indulge the chocolate-lovers' appetite.

So, I encourage you chocoholics to visit Tim’s online store for a sample of his seductive treats, or stop by the store in Meeteetse - I promise, you won't be disappointed!
