- Interview for "Cool. Single. CEO."
Laura Silverthorn 6/02/09"I chose Annika Pfluger, owner of Red Thread Confections, to be my next guest because as a business owner, single adoptive parent, and world class musician, her story is interesting on many levels. My close second reason, of course, is that I am addicted to chocolate and Annika happens to make it. Not just chocolate, mind you. Handmade, intricately hand-painted organic chocolates made from the finest ingredients and with nothing artificial added. In the past year that I have known about Annika, I have secretly browsed her website, stalking her adorable little chocolates’ every move. After all, a true chocolate lover knows that just because you can’t eat it every day, doesn’t mean you can’t spend the afternoon pretending you were. (On a personal note, I have to say I’m not sure why men don’t show up for dates more often with chocolates. THIS WORKS, trust me.)..." CLICK HERE to read more

Rhea Brown, 1/5/09"Rich, dark, creamy, milky, smooth and exquisite are the words I use when I indulge in my weekly chocolate fix, and this mom’s gotta have it. Annika Pfluger was a lucky find I made while on Twitter as I was looking for handmade products, indie designers, and mom friendly businesses to highlight. I was simply blown away by Annika and her artisan chocolate making business so much that I decided to sample some of her signature fair trade, artisan chocolate delights. Her handmade chocolate pieces are especially attractive and well designed..." CLICK HERE to read more
- Albany Times Union Eat Local Blog - "A Birthday Treat"
Caroline Barrett Albany, NY 12/11/08"Even though I no longer wear a princess crown and invite my ten best friends to sleep over on my birthday, I do believe that I am entitled to a treat. So after piano lessons last night, I drove my kids over to the Java Jazz Cafe in Delmar. They sell chocolates from Red Thread Confections, a local chocolatier. If you haven’t had them, they are the most divine chocolates, with flavors like Heavenly Honey Hazelnut. Each piece is so beautiful, as if you are eating a tiny piece of art." CLICK HERE to read more

"What a wonderful treat I was given by my friend Lee today at our Mom's group. I ate a delicious chocolate candy she was testing. The outside had the snap of fine chocolate, and such a creamy fudge center. It was a great contrast. The chocolate melted in my mouth. Although it was very satisfying, I wish I had several more pieces. I will definately recommend them to my friends."

Review by Stacy at Busy Mommy Blog"Oh my goodness! I really meant to take a picture of the actual ones that I got...but I had to taste them the second I opened the box (seriously, I took my first bite sitting in the parking lot of the post office). Spectacular does not even begin to describe how good they are! Really, I have no idea what I can say to get across how amazing these were so I would just suggest going to her site and buying some yourself...."

- from Julie - Saratoga Springs, NY 1/20/08
"I just ate the last of your chocolates. I tried to only have one per day to make them last but there were a few days that I just had to have one more. They were delicious! and absolutely beautiful! I especially hesitated to eat the animals since they were all a work of art! I wish you lots of success with Red Thread Confections and will pass your name to friends looking for a beautiful and delicious gift of chocolates!"
- from Tom - West Hartford, CT 1/1/08
"The chocolates my friend sent to us for Christmas were absolutely fantastic. If they didn't taste so good, I would feel badly eating them because they're so beautifully made. Congratulations and good luck with your company."
- from Janna - Delmar, NY 12/4/07
"I LOVE these chocolates! They are so beautiful and delicious, like gems and jewels in a box. I’ve given them as gifts many times and they are always a huge hit. Needless to say, they make fabulous gifts! The high quality of the chocolates has always been consistently top notch. The flavors are all fantastic. But, my favorites are the turtles. The hedgies run a close second along with the mayan fire and orange celebration. Yum!!!!"
- from Carol - Forest Hills, NY 12/4/07
"Just want to let you know that I think your chocolates are beautiful. I ordered the small assortment. The package arrived quickly and in fine condition. The marshmallow was delightful. The fleur de sel turtle was scrumptious and my favorite. Each piece in the box had a great fresh taste. I am enjoying them all."
- from Kathleen - Winthrop, MA 11/27/07
"I got the large box assortment and was amazed at how beautiful these chocolates are. Each one is a work of art. I loved the chocolate daisies the balance of the white chocolate and raspberry was wonderful. I also love Hedgie-the chocolate, the peanut butter, the marshmallow---mmm, heavenly. My only complaint about hedgie is he is too cute to eat--well, almost!"
- from Clarence - Keene, NH 11/24/07
"Marshmallow Madness Confections are, simply said, delicious! Normally, I am not a big fan of marshmallows, having been raised on the super-market, store bought, variety, but one bite into these with their luscious dark chocolate coating and you will change your mind forever about marshmallows!"
- from Dianne - Port Aransas, TX 11/19/07
"I have ordered a large assortment, after having tasted the rich, melt in your mouth chocolates. I loved savoring each piece as I read the ingredients & the history from the brochure. The presentation of shapes,color & design are also extremely eye appealing. I look forward to receiving my large assorted box & sharing."
