Welcome to our Shop
Robyn and Stan are partners in business and in life, having started Driftless Chocolates in celebration of a milestone wedding anniversary in 2019.
Robyn Kitson
President & Co-Founder
A healthy small business partnership works especially well when each partner has deep expertise that complements the other's strengths. Stan focuses on all things chocolate. Robyn focuses on growing the business, the behind-the-scenes work so necessary for business health and vitality. And she loves it as it feeds her entrepreneurial spirit perfectly.
Robyn started Kitson Marketing in 1987 and Stan joined her in 1990. The two ventured into web applications together with InTimeTools in 2001.
So in 2019, a fine chocolate company seemed the obvious choice!
"Welcome! C'mon in!"
"TROLLS" welcome in Mount Horeb!
What great fortune to land in a village that embraces the trolls so prevalent in Norwegian heritage! Robyn Kitson, co-owner of Driftless Chocolates, absolutely loves being able to put her Norwegian collections on display.
"I've had these trolls in my home for years and chuckle each time I see them. Now they are in our shop for all to enjoy!" says Robyn, holding a photo of Grandma Leah in her handmade Norwegian outfit. "Grandma brought each of these treasures home from her visits to Norway. I'm fortunate to have them. They each have a name!"
Mount Horeb proudly claims to be the "Troll Capitol of the World" and what a perfect place for Driftless Chocolates to be!
Grandma Leah tried her hand at rosemaling and cross-stitch and lefse...and it's all in our shop (except the lefse...it was yummy!).
