A Mavrakos family heirloom returns

Classic Mavrakos box over 50 years old

The holiday season has been filled with lots of delicious chocolates and happy customers at the Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Company stores.  One day in particular was very special, when we were graced with the presence of an old family heirloom, passed down from two generations by a local St. Louis family.  It was a black satin, hand painted MAVRAKOS candy box.  We are unsure of the exact date it was sold, however we do know that this box dates nearly a half century back, given that it used the old Mavrakos logo.  This is also the first time we have seen the old Mavrakos logo.  The lady who brought in the box commented “I knew there was a reason I needed to keep this box my whole life…it has finally made its way back home.” 

Mavrakos has had the pleasure of listening to hundreds of stories that have come in by phone, email, and by mail.  We are very exicted to be launching our Valentine’s Day and Easter chocolates soon! 

As always, all of our products are listed at: http://www.mavrakos.com
