I didn’t want this to be true, but the internet says it’s true. Also, friends at Sharffen Berger have confirmed that Hershey, who bought Sharffen Berger a few years ago, will be closing their Berkeley plant this year. They’ll continue to make Sharffen Berger chocolate and Joseph Schmidt truffles, just not on the west coast.
Boo.
