It has been said that the passion of an artist is found deep within the soul. It is what separates those who settle for good from those who are compelled to see greatness and seek perfection. For the lucky few who have met Fran Bigelow, you'll find that underneath her warm and engaging exterior lies both a great artist and a master chocolatier. Her love of chocolate is intense, and her pursuit of the extraordinary is evident. A feast for all your senses, her chocolates are sublime and the hand packaging of her confections is almost as delicious.
A visit to Paris inspired this European-like passion for pure flavors and simple, yet exquisite ingredients. She opened her first patisserie and chocolate shop twenty-five years ago to share that philosophy of joie-de-vivre. Many confections later, she has been credited for sparking the artisan chocolate renaissance in the United States, and is considered one of the best chocolatiers in the nation. Her pursuit of maintaining the purity of chocolate and pairing it with only the finest ingredients has been an inspiration to both chocolate artisans, and aficionados alike.
In addition to creating some of the most addictively delicious confections on the planet, Fran's Chocolates is also a proud supporter of the Joyful Heart Foundation.

The Nuddle™ Blanket (nap + cuddle = nuddle) was created to be THE most comfortable, luxurious blanket you'll ever own. It has openings for your arms, an enclosed foot pocket and an outer hand pouch. Made of an ultra-plush fabric that will cover you from your neck to your toes, the Nuddle™ Blanket, a must-have, has even become Hollywood's choice for comfort!
The Nuddle was designed to give you hands-free access through the arm holes in the blanket. If you don't want to use the openings, the Nuddle Blanket is just like any other throw - but with more options! Unlike other blankets that have recently come to market, you do not need to "wear" the Nuddle Blanket in order to enjoy it. Whether you're curling up on the couch to read a great book or watching TV with a cup of coffee, the Nuddle Blanket gives you the freedom to use your hands whenever you want, while still staying wrapped up and cozy.
Since 2009, the makers of the Nuddle Blanket have also offered the Joyful Nuddle which supports the work of JHF.
