Black Dinah Chocolatiers reveals new name as Ragged Coast Chocolates
While the Maine-based confectioner was originally named after a local mountain, ‘Black Dinah’ can also refer to a generic term for Black female slaves.
Black Dinah Chocolatiers — the award-winning, Maine-based makers of signature chocolate truffles and sea salt caramels — has officially changed its name to Ragged Coast Chocolates.
“We believe that Ragged Coast Chocolates pays homage to our hardy island roots while also celebrating Maine’s unique beauty and traditions which we work hard to reflect in our handmade chocolates,” said company co-owner Kate Shaffer.
