Each business will oversee its activity during its own business hours and will have a “Chocolate Daze Participant” sign posted.

Participants include The Bead Café, Broken Rocks Café & Bakery, City Square Steakhouse, Friendtique, G&G Boutique/Wooster Floral, Muddy Waters Café & Grille, Salon Fringe, SoMar Wine Cellars, White Raven Native Elements, Tulipan Hungarian Pastry & Coffee Shop and many more. Many businesses will feature gift basket drawings and/or free chocolate dessert samples including chocolate mousse pie, cheesecake, cookies, and more.
