Sweet on You: Pumpkin Truffles by Sweet On Chocolate in Syracuse
Friday, October 19, 2007 
Lucky Danny: He said “See ya” and went off to live the dream by going on tour with his band Speaker Speaker. However, he’s redeemed himself (somewhat) by spying out some excellent sweets on the road. While we will be publishing a full update of what he ate on tour upon his return in November, one find was simply too good to wait: Pumpkin Truffles by Sweet On Chocolate in Syracuse, New York.
Sweet On Chocolate has been making handmade chocolates since 1993, and features a wide variety of hand-dipped chocolates, hand-made truffles, and novelties such as dipped potato chips. While they say the latter is one of their bestsellers, at the moment of truth, Danny went for the pumpkin truffle, perhaps owing to the chill in the October air (or perhaps an employee’s suggestion). The choice was a good one: the dark chocolate shell broke open perfectly, and the consistency of the filling was a soft cascade of chocolatey-pumpkiny-carmelly goodness; an ideal mixture of sweet and savory, and deeply satisfying.
Kind of like Halloween candy all grown up.
Cakespy Note: Although it is not advertised, Sweet On Chocolate will ship orders pretty much nationwide via UPS; however, they will not ship during the warmer months or to warmer climates.

I'm glad to hear that Mr. Cakespy's fulfilling his husbandal duties while out living the dream!
I've heard of dipped potato chips before, but I've never got the chance to try one. Anything salty and sweet is made just for me. Seriously.
Thank you very much for your review. We were surprised to see that someone would take the time to post us on their website. We are excited and encouraged by your positive comments. Thank you again!
