Kelly Spivey, proprietress of the Chocolate Lab, will be at Foxy Loxy this Friday night serving up some American-made cocoa creations. Five flavors of unique chocolates will be expertly paired with a coordinating glass of wine.

Before she began the Chocolate Lab, Spivey worked as a pastry chef and wrote a blog on vegan baking. Her interest lies on the ingredient level as indicated by her love for single-sourced and American-made chocolate.

Like many local entrepreneurs, Spivey is looking to Kickstarter to help boost her business. Kickstarter is a crowd-funded platform for small business owners. Through the Kickstarter website, everyman donors can contribute to projects that catch their eye. Spivey has just a few short days left, until October 16 at 9 p.m. (Eastern), to raise her funds. For those of our readers who aren’t familiar with the process, the entrepreneur requests a goal amount. If the goal is not met the entrepreneur receives nothing. The investments do not come without rewards, however! A $25 donation nabs you a sampler pack of her delicious chocolate. Click here for more information. Read more about Kelly in the October/November issue of South.
