1. Dove Chocolate

2. The Dove Story CREATED WITH LOVE by Greek - American founder Leo Stefanos, DOVE Chocolate has been a rich family tradition since the 1950 s. Witnessing his son racing down the street after an ice cream truck, the Chicago candy store owner developed the DOVEBAR out of concern for his children ' s safety. Hand - dipping ice cream in premium chocolate, Leo took months to refine the recipe, naming the new treat after his south side candy shop, a moniker chosen for its " peaceful " quality. Those first rich, creamy DOVEBAR were an instant success, but it wasn ' t until Leo ' s son grew up and followed in his father ' s footsteps that DOVE Chocolate became known from coast to coast. By the late '70 s over one million DOVEBAR were sold in a single year by street vendors to eager children and adults.

3. The DOVEBAR popularity soon caught the attention of another family of expert chocolatiers. M & M / Mars acquired DOVE in 1986 as the crown jewel of their company, and refined DOVE Chocolate ' s purity and taste before introducing milk and dark chocolate bars in the '90 s. Because DOVE Chocolate creates chocolate indulgences and only chocolate indulgences, careful attention is paid to quality, ensuring a silky, smooth texture and delicious, lingering taste. From DOVE PROMISES Chocolate to the now iconic DOVEBAR Ice Cream ; all of DOVE Chocolate treats are made to savor. And every DOVE Chocolate product is made with the same pride and care as it was by Leo Stefanos over 50 years ago.

4. The DOVE Chocolate Difference MADE WITH 100% PURE COCOA BUTTER, DOVE Chocolate has an intoxicating scent, a glossy hue and a rich taste unsurpassed by other bars. Always silky smooth on the tongue with a complex flavor, each DOVE Chocolate product starts with only the best cacao beans, tested twice by expert Mars technicians for quality and flavor. The perfect combination of chocolate liquor and cocoa butter, DOVE has a balanced taste that is never too sweet or too bitter. Because DOVE cares about every detail of the chocolate making process, you are always assured of delicious, lingering chocolate flavor. Mars takes great care and maintains the highest standard of quality in manufacturing DOVE Chocolate from the bean to bar, coupled with its special roasting and grinding – resulting in the signature silky smooth signature taste of DOVE ® Chocolate.

5. My Comments The difference of Dove chocolate is that it was made with love. If you do something with your heart and soul, you would make it different.
