I receive queries of curious folx on occasion and want to share them here. As I receive more questions, I will add them to the list.

    • I want to provide you the utmost in happiness and quality. Please review my return policy for more details.

About High-Quality Chocolate

  • Does Morgan make the chocolates?

    • Oh yeah. Every day, I'm trufflin'. I am training our team to become craft chocolate makers as well so all the chocolate is absolutely made in-house and frequently by me personally.

  • Are Queer Chocolatier chocolates hand-rolled?

    • Yes, they are! I infuse non-dairy cream with ingredients to create unique flavor offerings, then heat the chocolate with the infused cream to create a ganache. This ganache is chilled and then portioned, rolled and coated by hand.

  • What is your base chocolate?

    • This is a fascinating question that cuts to the heart of my values. Finding the best chocolate for Queer Chocolatier meant exploring and researching deeply the means of chocolate production; economic, social, and environmental impacts of that production; and the quality of the product itself.

    • I am purchasing cocoa beans from Uncommon Cacao and Meridian Cacao to make our own bean-to-bar chocolate that can then be used in our truffles

    • Read more about my wonky passion about chocolate in my blog!

  • Where are the truffles made?

    • All of our chocolate and truffles are proudly made in-house at our storefront location in Downtown Muncie. Find us at 201 South Walnut Ave, Muncie, IN 47305.

  • What is the shelf life of Queer Chocolatier truffles?

    • Does not compute...?

  • No really, what's the shelf life?

    • Ideally, you won't be testing the bounds of a shelf life of truffles. But, I get it (no I don't). Chocolate is best stored in a cool, dark place. A refrigerator is not ideal as the fats in chocolate are sponges for ambient odors and, as your chocolate may pick those up, the flavor can be negatively affected. However, sometimes chocolate must be place in the refrigerator to firm up from having partially melted and that's fine.

    • If you keep your chocolate in the refrigerator, please keep it in an airtight container and eat within 2-3 weeks. If you keep in a cool, dark space outside of your refrigerator, consume within 1-2 weeks.

    • The first thing you'll notice when chocolate truffles start to approach the end of their shelf life is that their texture begins to change from smooth and creamy to dry and crumbly. At that point, if your truffles have reached that stage, I would discard them as they just won't be as pleasant of an experience to consume any longer.
