Potomac Chocolate

This Saturday is the semi-annual Swords, Brooms, and Magical Beasts event here in Occoquan! More businesses than ever are participating with special products, events, tastings, and more!

For it, we're bringing back our limited-edition bars with popping candy and adding a new one!

First up are two 'Prestidigitation' bars (named after the cantrip spell in DnD). The original white chocolate with strawberry popping candy is joined by our new milk chocolate bar with pineapple popping candy.

Lastly is our newly-renamed 'Aganazzar's Scorcher' which is a dark chocolate, spiced with cinnamon and aleppo chili pepper, with spicy popping candy.

Stop by on Saturday to pick some up! If there are any left after Saturday, they'll be available in our shop and we'll put them up on the website in case anyone else is interested in trying them.

As you may know, we've hosted a few concerts in the chocolate factory over the past couple years. And we've got another one coming up soon!

Wonderlick is a band made up of two guys from one of my all-time favorite bands, Too Much Joy (you may remember their big hit 'Crush Story' from the 90s). They'll be playing an intimate, mostly-acoustic concert on Tuesday, August 12th. Tickets are available at the link in the bio.

For more info on Wonderlick, check them out at and/or on your favorite streaming service!

I'm including a little video of them playing a Too Much Joy classic, 'William Holden Caulfield' from when they played here last year.
