Today is International Chocolate day, and we thought the best way to celebrate is by sharing some of our best printers and labelers for chocolate products. International Chocolate Day is celebrated every year by millions of chocolate lovers in the US and elsewhere; today is the day to celebrate the most delicious and popular sweet in the world! The US National Confectioners Association celebrates International Chocolate on September 13 because September 13 is the birth anniversary of Milton Hershey, the great American chocolatier and founder of Hershey’s. World Chocolate Day is celebrated globally on July 7. 

What are the Best Printers and Labelers for Chocolate Products?

At Dartronics, Inc., we have a huge catalog of products, but these printers and labelers are used by three of our customers who are experts in the chocolate-making world:

 

Asher’s Chocolate Company

Asher’s is a family-owned-and-operated business that has been making fine chocolates and other classic confections for over five generations! They offer an award-winning selection of chocolates and other sweets – from assorted nuts to our chocolate-smothered pretzels and creamy fudge. Asher’s also has one of the largest (and most delicious) lines of sugar-free chocolates in the country. Back in 2015, they purchased the FlexPackPRO^® 420iXT, a TTO (Thermal Transfer Overprinter) printer from us for their beautiful packaging.

The Madelaine Chocolate Company

The Madelaine Chocolate company was established in 1949 and dedicated itself to perfecting the superior taste and quality of its chocolate. Their belief that everyone should be able to afford great-tasting chocolate is what drives their commitment to their customers and ensures they never compromise on flavor or quality. In 2018 they purchased the HSAUSA Minutouch Printing system from us to help ensure that every part of their business, including the packaging, doesn’t compromise on quality. 

The HSAJET® MiniTouch MTHP4 can control up to 2″ print height. Mount the controller directly on a one or two pen printhead (side/low version) for a compact version, or utilize the flexibility of the MiniTouch to connect up to 4 pens to the controller, either as single heads or with a distributor box in a combination of 1, 2, and 3-pen printheads. Prints at breakthrough speeds of up to 300 M/MN (984 FT/MIN) IN 300 X 150 DPI.

Starseed Bakery

Starseed bakery has always given careful consideration to every ingredient to ensure that they are nurturing its customers with quality food and supporting our local community and economy. They source many of their ingredients from local farms and organic suppliers and do not cut corners. If they are skeptical about the quality of any ingredient, they simply do not use it. In a globalized world where even “natural” food is over-processed, their customers can feel confident that what they are eating is healthy, delicious, and wholesome. Back in 2015, they purchased the SATO CL408NX Thermal Transfer Printer from us for their packaging labels.

The CL408NX Series of thermal-transfer label printers from Sato include a wide range of features that make it a great choice for demanding label printing applications. Printing at 203 dpi, the CL408NX printers can print labels at up to 10 ips (254 mm/s) and can handle labels up to 4.1″ wide.
