Holiday Truffles

[Kuyuk]

After a few comments and PM's from people wanting truffles for the holiday, I figured I'd put a thread out for it.

I'm more than willing to craft some yummies for people for the holidays - since global warming is in time-out, there shouldnt be an issue with melting en route.

They should last a while - easily up to two weeks @70 degrees.

If you want me to wrap the box in holiday wrapping paper, I can do that for a small fee... probably $1.75 or something.

I am out of town for a job interview/tasting next Thursday - Saturday (9-11), so if I get a bunch of orders by the time I come back, I'll do them all when I return and mail them out asap.

So, I'll make the order deadline the 15th, to ensure everything goes well.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

I dont think you'd want to pay for shipping on the bicycle...

Holiday shipping isn't free? You fucking Grinch.

[Kuyuk]

Holiday shipping isn't free? You fucking Grinch.

Hahahah. Very true, but as a small business, on my orders, shipping costs ~20% of the product.

Fuck no it's not free.

[NocturnalRob]

Well then...

Good day, sir.

I SAID, GOOD DAY!

[Kuyuk]

Updated the checkout to include optional wrapping... hopefully it works, they changed some specs around to the edit ability, gr >:o

[NocturnalRob]

Promotional code?

Knowing you, I tried I<3COCK but it didn't work.

Any other ideas?

[Kuyuk]

If you got a flyer when I handed them out a while ago at the college, put in the code on there....

[NocturnalRob]

Fucking Decatur.

[Kuyuk]

happyholidays

10% off orders $12 or more.

[NocturnalRob]

nah, man. you're good. Promotional Codes are for pussies. I'm a MAN.

Just ordered a dozen. Have some friends coming from overseas for a January holiday visit, so will get at least another dozen.

Actually, what will likely happen is that I will receive this dozen, get drunk before I gift them, eat them, and then scramble to find a replacement gift.

WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME?!?

[Kuyuk]

Because I am trying to make a few bucks? :)

Im not gonna lie, I think last time he was selling these via the PC I bought $100 worth or something and I loved the shit out of them, Ill IM you about some details in a bit bud.

[Kuyuk]

I forgot wtf you were bc you changed your name.

[Jayvn]

[WRoss]

I hope you can make the 3400 I just ordered. The Cumming Junior League needs truffles.

Wow, that was such a bad joke.

Do you live in Cumming? My husband works in Cumming. Also, Cumming.

[WRoss]

My sister and brother-in-law live in Cumming. He is/was head of the bar in Forsyth and she taught at St. Francis until she had her son. I'm down there quite a bit though.l

I wish you just ordered 3400 truffles.

Make my x-mas a hell of a lot better!! :)

[WRoss]

[Kuyuk]

Hm, you're missing a few zeros on the end....

:thinking:

I thought it was just me that did this kind of thing. Hickory Farm gifts are always having to be replaced last minute by a cheapy candle from Walgreens.



OH and even more relavant to the thread, I'm pondering truffles, but I know where they'd end up..

If I buy this, how many do I get? 1 or 3?

I think you pick 4 types that you would like and get 3 each.

or pick 3 types that you would like and get 2 each.

or buy 3400.

1.

Just a photo to show you what they look like....

[NocturnalRob]

Ah. Misunderstood the question. Yeah, don't think they're being sold 3 for $1.50. They're truffles.

[Abilene]

Kuyuk, sent a PM since Rob is going to mock my inability to understand how to order truffles.

[NocturnalRob]

No I wouldn't!

I bought a dozen as a "gift." I'm fairly certain if this fucker actually gets them to me early enough, I can justify eating these 12 on my own and placing another order as a replacement.

[Abilene]

You would.

And Kuyuk, I answered my own question, I found a calculator-thingamajig and realized my question was redundant.

[NocturnalRob]

You would.
All in good fun?

[Abilene]

I should hope so!


Ordering truffles =)
My ass just got bigger as I pretend I will be sharing these.

[NocturnalRob]

You're like a callipygian Pinocchio.

[Kuyuk]

Got several orders, thanks everyone for the support :-D

Now to get the rest of you lurking around here to order! :)

If you did order - I planned on a mass production and shipment around the 15th - if there is any problem with that, let me know please!

[Kuyuk]

Got the job in Ohio! Woot Woot!


Making everyones truffles sunday/monday for mail out soon!

[4a6c1]

Congrats truffle man.

[Kuyuk]

Yeah, it was strange - when he asked how much I was hoping to make, and I gave him a number, he counter-offered me with 6k more than that.... not sure how that worked, but I definitely wasnt going to say no!

[4a6c1]

6k more?! I'm calling the attourney general of Candyland to tell them they need to adjust your child support. JUST KIDDING DONT KILL ME.

[Kuyuk]

You, sir, are a master negotiator. Either that or your new boss is confused.

[diethx]

Ahahahah that's awesome. Congrats.

[MotleyCrew]

Have you ever made egg nog truffles? Just curious.

[Kuyuk]

Have you ever made egg nog truffles? Just curious.

No, but I would love to..... if you want to order like 36 of em.... ;-)

[Asile]

Congrats on the new job. And yeah, I think your new boss failed Negotiation 101.

Wish I could order some, but funds are tight while I'm out on maternity leave...plus I've got more than a little baby weight to lose :( (No way am I going to try to pretend I'm giving these as gifts; if I wanted to do that, I'd go get a box of Lindt or something.)

[Keller]

Is it too late to order?

[NocturnalRob]

Pretty sure you can order before the 15th and still get them for the holidays.

[Kuyuk]

Made, and ready for packaging!

[Asile]

I hate you. That is all.

Thanks everyone whom ordered!

[Kuyuk]

Haha, I wish we could carry around photos of shit like that to display during normal conversations to express how we feel.

Sometimes the random look of shock just weirds people out. Strange.

[Jayvn]

oh sweet baby jesus I'm going to start checking the mail now

[Abilene]

Some damn good truffle goodness going on in my office right now.

[Kuyuk]

Everyone get their truffles?

[NocturnalRob]

Fact. I am going to eat the fuck out of those things tonight.

[Kuyuk]

Jesus rob, are you stalking my posts to reply within 5 seconds at all times?

[NocturnalRob]

Yes!

[4a6c1]

Lol. You do make some very good truffles.

[Lolleia]

I got mine on Friday and they're amazing!

[NocturnalRob]

Dude, seriously. Dug into the order I made. I gave the dozen to my uncle as a gift. I had 2. They were fucking legit. I gave out the company name to 2 others before I left. Hope it helps.

Seriously, man. Those truffles were amazing.

[Kuyuk]

Thanks for the compliments guys :)

I hope to have my business back up and runnin within a few weeks after I move.

[diethx]

I might just have to try some. If I order the random assortment can I choose what kinds go in? Or at least.. what kinds don't? I'm picky.

[Kuyuk]

The assortment is usually whatever I have available from other orders (i.e. when someone orders rum, baileys and hazelnut, I have to make a minimum of 7 pcs, and if they only need 4... I have some left over, and use them in assorted), thats why the assorted price is cheaper... because you dont get to choose ;-)

However, you can order what you would like :-D

Remember, I wont be able to fill orders until after my move...

[diethx]

Lame.

So..?

Also, to anyone who hasn't bought 'em yet: they are nom-licious. Once you're ready to take orders, maybe I'll wander my way back and get s'more. The packaging is looking a lot nicer than in the early days! :yes:

[Kuyuk]

And people dont believe in evolution!

[NocturnalRob]
