Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. – Edgar Allan Poe

Dear Customers,

Time for trick-or-treaters and nights of spooky fun. It is a time when many adults get to stay cozy at home knowing that on their doorstep may arrive the little darling faces of children peering through silly costumes awkwardly holding out their bags for candy. We wish you all the best as you enjoy this great tradition.

Halloween Fun…

Herma’s Style with Fondue

Have a few guests over while you enjoy your trick-or-treater fun. We suggest cozy fondue with melted cheese and bread -or- enjoy an adult’s version of chocolate with marshmallows, apples, and bananas for dipping. No reason for kids to have all the fun.

For those of you attending our October 29th Fondue class you’ll get first-hand knowledge of how to entertain in this way. We can’t wait to show you how.

Find wonderful fondue pots at Herma’s and check facebook for Fondue Recipe.

All Halloween Merchandise 50% off – includes festive napkins, spiders, skulls, and goblin grips.

Cheese Department

Cathy and Janis are excited about the holidays approaching and can’t wait to prepare beautiful cheese and charcuterie trays for your holiday parties. They wanted to make special mention of a new Occelli cheese they will be sampling this Saturday…

Occelli nel fieno Maggengo – Maggengo means first crop of hay, as it is wrapped in the spring hay of mountain pastures which enhances it with aromas and fragrances of Alpine flowers.

Toasted over an open flame before aging, Bonnechere contains the beautifully integrated flavors of sour hickory smoke and fruity sweet with a caramel essence that lingers. Pair with Baco Noir, Dark Ale, or smoked beer.
