Governor to Hand out DeBrand Fine Chocolates to Trick-or-Treaters

Governor Mitch Daniels and First Lady Cheri Daniels will host trick-or-treaters at the Governor’s Residence from 6 to 8 p.m. EDT on Halloween night (October 31).

The governor and first lady will pass out assorted candy provided by five Indiana companies including Chamber member DeBrand Fine Chocolates.

“This will be our fifth year of welcoming young Hoosiers to the Governor’s Residence on Halloween,” said First Lady Cheri Daniels. “I am certain that our guests will not be disappointed by this year’s elaborate costumes and delicious treats donated by Indiana businesses.”

DeBrand Fine Chocolates was founded in 1987 by artisan chocolatier, Cathy Brand‐Beere, who is also a member of the Chamber Board of Directors. Brand-Beere grew up in a family renowned in the confectionery business and began making chocolates at the young age of eight. DeBrand has grown significantly since its humble beginnings in Cathy's family's century-old home and now employs nearly 100 people with its four retail shops, kitchen, corporate office and thriving Mail Order business. http://www.debrand.com/
