Sweet Riot is a chocolate company based out of NYC. Founder Sarah Endline is doing more than just selling chocolate, a tour through their site shows how much thought has been put into their product, including the social and environmental issues surrounding the production.
Products include varieties of chocolate covered cacao beans and raw cacao beans. Highlighted is the low calorie nature of the raw beans, appealing to chocolate lovers interested in watching their figure. Some clever marketing put the product in the hands of celebrities at the Sundance festival.
Included in the site is a blog by Sarah Endline that documents some day to day activities. Not too many posts as of yet, but it seems like her knowledge of the industry could provide for some very insightful articles. A cacao fun section provides a bit of history on the cacao bean, along with recipes and health tips.
The tins are decorated with custom art, regular contests determine who’s work will grace the sides of the tins.
Eding Post
This is something that caught my eye on a trip last year to Tokyo. Nothing complex, just t-shirts and bags in the shape of fast food
- First, I thought it was a regular hamburger, but wehn I looked thoroughly, I realized that I was wrong.
- A piece of T-shirt has appeared from what was thought to be a hamburger.
- When something that we consider ordinary changes into a peculiar subject, our mundane life might look extraordinary.
Maybe a t-shirt that is shaped like a hamburger won't make your life look extraordinary, but it's a nice outside look at fast-food culture.
Yam Cart
I like to think this is an example of doing everything right. I took this in a fairly residential neighborhood outside of Tokyo at around 6 PM. People were getting off of work and on their way home to likely prepare a meal or pick something up for their families. Along comes this gentleman driving a truck with a wood fired oven in the back.
Tsukiji Market
One of the most impressive markets I've ever seen. Tsukiji gets rolling every morning around 6 AM. This is where virtually all of the fish that is served in Tokyo comes. The sites and sounds are incredible, auctioning of fish, motorized carts buzzing around carrying shipments from the vendors to shipping.
