On June 1, Purdys Chocolatier introduced the Luts'as Ihqelts’ Gift Box with Quw’utsun artist Charlene Johnny's artwork featured on the gift box, in addition to brand-new, limited-edition Blueberry & Nettle Leaf chocolate. As part of its philanthropic initiative, Purple Partnerships, $5 from every box sold will be donated to the Stqeeye’ Learning Society (pronounced STAH-KAY-AH), an Indigenous-led nonprofit organization based on Salt Spring Island, BC in the traditional territory of the Quw’utsun Peoples.
The Luts'as Ihqelts’ (meaning full moon) Gift Box is available for a limited time with the brand new Blueberry & Nettle Leaf chocolate. Developed in collaboration with Charlene Johnny, this new piece is a milk and dark chocolate ganache infused with blueberry purée and a tingle of nettle leaves, enrobed in smooth dark chocolate. Beyond the new Blueberry & Nettle Leaf, the Luts'as Ihqelts’ Gift Box also includes fan favorites like Caramel Carnival, Himalayan Pink Salt Caramel, Mini Hedgehog, Blonde Maple Meltie, Ruby Praline, Salted Hazelnut Flake, and Petit Chocolat.
