hOT CHOCOLATE SPARROW
With the love of chocolate and a loan, we started The Chocolate Sparrow, a simple candy shop, in 1989 in North Eastham. Gradually we learned the art of making fine chocolate and the business of selling it. In 1991 we opened a summer shop in Wellfleet. Two years later in Orleans, we opened The Hot Chocolate Sparrow, a cafe complete with coffee from around the world, desserts of every indulgence, and our own hand-dipped chocolates. Here we could offer specialty coffee drinks in a sophisticated but welcoming atmosphere. We have grown into a local institution, open early morning to late night, every day of the year except Christmas.
We created a place where people can connect. Our cafe is recognized Cape-wide, our chocolate is sent all over the country, and our coffee, desserts, and fudge have been voted #1 numerous times in various local surveys.
No wonder we are recognized as "The Best on the Lower Cape."

THE FOOD TRUCK
My name is Lisa Whelan and I am Owner/Operator for The Food Truck Cape Cod as well as Dancing Spoons Chef Services.
I am from Wellfleet, but spent many years mostly out west and returning full time to the Cape in 1994. Over the years I have owned and operated 5 food and beverage businesses here and most recently opened a food truck.
I have always enjoyed cooking for people and even before I opened anything, was having orphan Thanksgiving, Christmas, Birthday meals for friends and family. For me, cooking and sharing food brings a sense of community and helps to nurture the parts of us that want to be included in something that can be enjoyed by many.
A little over a year ago, I opened The Food Truck Cape Cod, serving Seasonal Comfort Food. The Food Truck Cape Cod is also available for private events.

LITTLE BEACH BAKER, CRAFT BAKER
"I'm a native Cape Codder, grew up in Orleans and moved back last year for a travel nursing position. I have been hobby baking for about 15 years while working as a RN. A few years ago I worked as a nurse, living overseas. While living in Paris I really fell in love with French patisserie but also how they use flavors. It's been a dream of mine to bake full time and tie in the cultural influences from where I've lived/traveled! That is how Little Beach Baker came about! I'm a custom residential baker and I love making custom sugar cookies, cakes and other sweets for your special occasion! I look forward to seeing you this summer!"
