5 More Things to do with Dove Chef Series White Chocolate!

Five more things to do with Dove White Chocolate:
1. Shave the White Chocolate in our Dessert Decorator and decorate cakes and chocolate mousse or top our hot drinks with it

2. Top our Truffle Fudge Brownies with White Chocolate Ganache

3. Bake our Double Chocolate Chip Cookies in a mini muffin pan to create thumbprint cookies. When you remove the cookies from the oven, take a spoon and press down on the center of the cookie, and pour the melted White Chocolate in the “thumbprint” and serve when cooled.

4. Create White Chocolate Chunk Double Chocolate Chip Cookies – cut the White Chocolate into chunks and stir into the cookie mix with the DOVE® Dark Chocolate Chips and bake as instructed

5. Create White Chocolate Dessert Cups by filling an individual silicone cupcake mold with tempered White Chocolate. Empty the excess White Chocolate back into the Tempering Unit or onto Parchment paper to create bark. Refrigerate for 20-25 minutes to set up and then slowly peel the silicone away from the white chocolate dessert cup.

Dove Ad in USA Today Critiqued by Direct Sales Expert Cynthia Maniglia

Recently Dove Chocolate Discoveries ran an advertisement in USA Today.  It featured the story of a Dove Chocolatier named Jill Young who live in California.  It is a very interesting "human interest story" style ad and in my own biased opinion first rate.

Cynthia Maniglia, a Philadelphia direct marketing consultant and publisher of the blog, www.copygrove.blogspot.com.  has featured the ad on her blog.  She wrote: "Good ad: Good use of testimonial copy to convey the main selling points of the new program. And great headline! Nice use of photography, too."

Carrie Geyer, Dove Chocolatier, Recruits Chocolate Lovers to Run Their Own Chocolatier Business

In a September, 2008 press release, MARS Snackfood US "announced the launch of DOVE Chocolate Discoveries(TM), the company's new venture into direct selling. DOVE Chocolate Discoveries(TM) provides chocolate-lovers the opportunity to discover their inner entrepreneur -- or "Chocolatier" -- by starting an at-home chocolate business, beginning with hosting chocolate parties, selling exclusive DOVE Chocolate Discoveries(TM) products and developing a network of Chocolatiers."

The press release explains that "all Chocolatiers are trained and equipped to hold chocolate parties that focus on their customer's area of interest -- candy-making, simple desserts, drinks, or simply savoring the chocolate as-is. After attending a party, guests have the opportunity to become Chocolatiers themselves or host their own Chocolate Tasting party. These tasting parties are the only place where DOVE Chocolate Discoveries(TM) products are sold."

I feel fortunate to have found this company. It is the first time that I have enjoyed real success in direct sales. Since joining the company in September I have had 10 parties with more bookings scheduled in January and February. I am making money and having fun. Public response to the concept, the company and the products is very positive. I have had repeat sales and friends asking me if they can host a party...
