William's Story
After years building a career in a corporate environment, I decided last year to start my own company. I now am the owner of William Dean Chocolates (named after my father and grandfather) and we produce "artisan" chocolates. For those of you still in KC you can go to the Dean & Deluca's store and see my work. We produce hand-painted and airbrushed chocolates using colored cocoa butter...the end result is a chocolate with a glasslike shell. I started this as a hobby about 4 years ago and after studying with some of the best chocolatiers in the world...launched my own company.
It has been great so far but we are ...Expand for more
still building the business. It is nice being involved with my friends/family in a business venture. We really started operations in late 2007 and expect the 4th quarter of 2008 to be exciting as we should get some national exposure.
My shop is located in the Tampa/St. Petersburg Florida region where I live.
I've stayed in contact with a few people from my high school class while losing touch with too many. I hope to make the 30th anniversary but have not heard anything yet (has it really been that long?) so drop me an email if anyone has information. wdchocolates at aol.com is the one I check most often.
