Dear Valued Customers,
We are committed to providing you with the highest quality chocolate products at fair prices.
However, recent global events have significantly impacted the cost of cocoa, the primary ingredient in our chocolates. Over the past year, cocoa prices have surged nearly 65%, reaching a 46-year high.
This increase is primarily due to adverse weather conditions and disease affecting cocoa-producing regions in West Africa, leading to reduced yields. Â Â Â foodincanada.com
Consequently, major chocolate manufacturers, including Hershey, have reported lower volumes and are grappling with soaring cocoa costs. Â Reuters
Despite our best efforts to absorb these rising costs and maintain our product prices, the sustained increase in cocoa prices has made it increasingly challenging. We want to assure you that any necessary price adjustments will be made thoughtfully, aiming to minimize the impact on you, our loyal customers.
We deeply value your continued support, which has been instrumental in our ability to serve you over the years. Please know that we are actively working with our suppliers to manage costs without compromising the quality you expect from us.
Thank you for your understanding and for being a cherished part of our community.
Warm regards,
Mahsa Tabibiyan
Owner Of Sweet Castle Bakery
