How do you capture a sense of place, indulgence, and timeless detail all in one bite? You savor Tuck Shop chocolates, of course!

We're delighted to be hosting founders Sarah Michler and Caroline Witmer, whose story began with a bittersweet moment—discovering that their favorite Nantucket chocolate shop, Sweet Inspirations, was closing. That spark of nostalgia inspired them to create something entirely their own: an exquisite confectionery that celebrates distinctive flavors and the joy of being in your happy place.

In this episode, Sarah and Caroline share how their friendship, complementary talents, and shared love of fine chocolate came together to inspire a brand infused with meaning and memory.

Get ready to have your palate intrigued and your senses stirred as we explore their favorite creations, creative process, and the beautiful notes that make Tuck Shop chocolates truly unforgettable.

Their handcrafted confections have been celebrated by brands such as the Bowery Hotel, Blackberry Farm, The Peninsula Beverly Hills, Vogue, Goop, and J.Crew, just to name a few.

Above all, Sarah and Caroline's friendship reminds us that when passion and a shared dream come together, something truly special happens. The sweetest things in life just aren't tasted. They're felt.
