Anne and Joe's Wedding

Anne and Joe ordered "love" biscotti favors for the adults and chocolate dipped pretzel rods mini favors for the children for their Tuscan-themed rehearsal dinner at Alberto's Italian Steakhouse in Newtown Square.  They also ordered elegant gold ballotin boxes for use by guests at the wedding reception at the Ben Franklin House in Philadelphia.  The couple embossed the boxes with their initials.

Everything was fabulous!  The favors were such a great addition to my Tuscan-themed rehearsal.   "love" biscottoEveryone thought the chocolate iced "love" biscotti were delicious and noted how they were the perfect blend of crunchiness without being rock hard. Of course, the kids loved the chocolate dipped pretzels.

I included a few pictures... you can see how the "love" biscotti were served on the tables (right) when everyone arrived and there's a glimpse of the wine cork placecards and custom wine bottles. I sent a picture of my husband and me!

And the gold ballotin boxes at the reception were such a hit!  PeopleJeffrey and his take-home Gold Ballotin Box couldn't grab them and get them filled fast enough.  (See our nephew, Jeffrey, [right] at the end of the evening enjoying his take-home ballotin box.)

Several people had asked who did the favors and I glowingly raved about you and Lucia and gave them business cards and the website address.  I hope you get some additional business!"love" biscotti as served at rehersal dinner

Thank you again!  We look forward to using your services in the future!  We have affairs all the time, so you'll be hearing from me for sure!

Colleen and Scott ordered three large gourmet party trays for their outdoor wedding with 200 guests... chocolate dipped fresh fruit, gourmet biscotti, and assorted Belgian chocolates.

The wedding was wonderful.

Everything was great, but the chocolate dipped fresh fruit in particular was a huge hit!

"I ordered two pounds of gourmet biscotti for my father-in-law’s birthday.  I wanted to tell you that he absolutely loves your biscotti, and it made him a bit nostalgic because they tasted like his mother’s biscotti.  He said that her biscotti were always around the kitchen to eat, and he forgot how good they were.  My father-in-law kept asking me where I found them, because they are "the real deal.”  He is also Italian (so am I!!!!), and has a taste for good food and Italian cookies/pastry.  He often turns his nose up at things that don’t compare. Your biscotti really made my father-in-law happy.  Thank you!  I'll be ordering in the future for sure.  Next time, I'll try your chocolate iced biscotti for Christmas gifts."

"I just want to thank you for the wonderful "tower of heaven" you sent to my father-in-law in Pittsburgh, PA for his birthday. It was truly spectacular and he and my mother-in-law are enjoying every last morsel!!!

Thanks for everything... I have already shared your web address!"

“I have been in the culinary business for over 30 years and I can tell Lucia and Marta’s Sweet Creations uses the same high quality chocolate used by professional pastry chefs -- Callebaut.  This chocolate is the “royalty” of chocolate.  This is why Lucia and Marta’s products taste so exceptional.”

"I believe authentic Italian biscotti can only be made by real Italians...  These anisette biscotti look and taste exactly like my mother used to make them in the old country.  I can't believe it... These girls are the real deal."

"Everyone should taste this chocolate.  Unlike mass-produced commercial chocolate found in America, Lucia and Marta's handmade chocolate truly compares to the quality of fine European chocolate.  My favorite is the dark chocolate almond clusters."

Quote 1: "Lucia and Marta's turned me into a chocolate lover... I used to be indifferent toward chocolate.  But when I Chocolate Dipped Banana with Chopped Peanutstried Lucia and Marta's chocolate creations, I found out chocolate can be a good thing if it's real Belgian chocolate.  I have a new appreciation for high quality chocolate.  Why bother with anything else?  Life is too short..."

Quote 2: "The 50th birthday party for my sister was a great success and the Belgian chocolates and gourmet biscotti were a huge hit.  Apparently, the cake we ordered [separately from the caterer] came with a "sweets" tray.  Once word got out about your products, there was no contest...every last piece of your chocolate was gone and almost all of the biscotti.  It was actually kind of funny to see the people huddling around your chocolate and ignoring the parfaits and such provided by the baker. Thanks again for your creativity and help in making the event so memorable."

"Who knew I liked white chocolate? ...Belgian Callebaut white chocolate, that is.  Everyone knows the so-called "white chocolate" available in stores and how it's generally terrible.  But Lucia and Marta's white chocolate is rich and creamy.  It has real cocoa butter -- not oils or waxes like other brands.  It's quite an experience!"

"Lucia and Marta's chocolate dipped fruit tastes extraordinary and is wonderfully presented.  The quality is apparent -- they use the finest European chocolate and the freshest fruit.  My favorites are pineapple and bananas with peanuts.  I like that I can order a tray of just my favorites, and it's no problem."

Callebaut Callets - Belgian Chocolate Chips"I purchased Lucia and Marta’s Callebaut Belgian chocolate chips for my holiday baking.  These premium chips really made a difference.  My chocolate chip cookies were the best I ever made.  I plan to keep a supply of these Belgian chocolate chips on-hand all year long!"

"I wanted to thank you for introducing me to the chocolate covered pretzels and chocolate covered fruit that you offer. I Belgian Chocolate Covered "Zebra" Pretzel - Hand-dipped twice for a unique chocolate experience.consider myself somewhat of a expert in regards to food and those items were simply exceptional.  I introduced the chocolate covered pretzels to my sister-in-law during Thanksgiving and they were gone the next day.  She, as I, raved about the quality and taste.  She followed by ordering more for herself.

Thank you again for the outstanding product and I look forward to satisfying my urge for chocolate in the very near future."

“We ordered thirty holiday baskets as holiday gifts for the staff. At first we had no idea what each should contain, but Lucia & Marta gave us great recommendations.  Each festive basket was made with great care.  Lucia & Marta delivered them early to us as requested, so we could present them to staff members in a timely fashion.  The holiday baskets got rave reviews for the high quality of the chocolates and handmade traditional Italian biscotti.

"I can honestly say it is hard to pick a favorite from your Belgian chocolates.  They are all truly delicious. The presentation is amazing – I love the combination of chocolate iced biscotti, chocolate covered pretzels and non-pareils on the party tray.  I ordered a custom tray-- which was not a problem.  My guests dove right in and finished everything off.  I plan to order more chocolate and biscotti in the future for my party and gift-giving needs.  www.LuciaAndMarta.com has been marked as a favorite website."

Boxed Chocolate and Biscotti in White Box Set"I had some Lucia and Marta’s biscotti shipped to my Italian friend in Florida for Christmas.  She loved them!  She was very impressed with their freshness, quality, and their homemade taste.

I also ordered some dark chocolate mixed nut clusters for my dad since he loves nuts and Belgian chocolate.  As soon as he opened the box, he could tell by the aroma – this was Belgian chocolate – and he planned to savor every piece.  My dad loved them!  I will definitely order again!"
