Wake up feel some sunshine on your face
The feeling that you can't seem to replace
Everybody's out and on their way
Together you and I will make today more than a memory
Open your eyes so you can see
All of the magic in everything
...and to put the sparkle in our Strawberry Sparkle Surprise.
Oh, that looks so good.
Sweet on the inside and radiant on the outside, just like you!
I can't wait to see you at my Tiny Chocolatiers class
this weekend.
Bye!
-Have a chocolatey day! Bye! -Thank you.
Guess whose work is featured in Woodbury Crest's
Wondrous Weddings for the second month in a row?
You're kidding?
"Aria Emerson's bold designs are a rare work of art
filled with heart, passion, and creativity."
Who I suspect may soon be gracing these pages
with a wedding story of her own.
What makes you say that?
It's your three year anniversary.
What better way to celebrate than with a big huge rock?
I guess that never really crossed my mind.
Really?
That should be a clue. It's time.
For what?
For the talk, Aria, the breakup talk.
But why?
Because at this point in your relationship,
you should be thinking about getting married
and starting a family.
If you're not, you're just wasting your time.
I know.
It might be worth considering soon,
it's not everyday that Jacob asks me to take over his shift
so he can prepare a monumental dessert.
-He said that? -Yeah.
That look right there says it all.
How about we revisit this conversation
after the Masters of Chocolate competition?
I have to win that grand prize money for my Tiny Chocolatiers.
I'm not gonna let anything jeopardize it.
That's a good plan, unless Jacob really does propose tonight.
The buttery caramel is enrobed in a rich layer
of dark chocolate
and then sprinkled with sea salt crystals.
Those little bursts of flavor
are enough to warm up anyone's day.
That's great, I'll take one.
[sawing]
I could've hired someone instead of you flying in.
You've mentioned that a few times now, pops.
Between being a full-time dad and the foreman
of New York City's number one construction company,
you've got a lot going on.
Then you can understand that I'm used to juggling.
Besides, how could I not help?
This is a huge opportunity for our family.
Your property got selected to host one of the largest
chocolate events in the country.
And one of your vendors made it into the competition!
Yeah, the whole town's buzzing about it.
It's exactly what Woodbury Crest needs.
And then maybe you can retire with a bang.
No one deserves it more.
That means a lot, son.
And besides, you can't beat the cost of my services, right?
So I'll finish the competition area by tomorrow.
I'll work on the sign while we're waiting
for the backdrop to come in.
-It'll be great. -I have no doubt.
Why that look?
It's just... if you find yourself wanting to talk.
Right, you'll be here.
But this trip isn't about me.
Will you pass me the drill?
Thanks.
[drill whirring]
I meant to tell you, you look beautiful tonight.
Thanks.
This is never easy to say...
[together] This isn't working out.
Wait, so you're not going to propose?
No, why would you think that?
The monumental dessert.
That's to thank you for our time together
and to show you that I did learn something from you.
Jacob, I have too.
Well of course, my business savvy
is the reason your small shop is one of the top grossing stores
in the whole village.
And I've been consistently creating
new flavors and designs.
Aria, there's only so many ways to make chocolate.
It's how you package and sell it.
What is wrong with me being passionate about my business?
Nothing!
I don't know, maybe your passion should be focused
on expanding the store into a chain.
-This again? -Yeah, this again.
Come on, I just don't understand how you can be happy
being confined to a small town.
There's so much more out there!
Well, I am.
Happiness isn't just about a successful business.
It's about the people you choose to share your life with.
The community, okay.
Well, agree to disagree.
Anyways, it doesn't matter anymore
because it's your store anyways.
We did have some amazing moments together.
Yeah, we did.
Can we at least still be friends?
Aria...
I think it's best that we spend some time apart.
I want you to be happy, I do.
Good luck with everything?
Goodnight, Aria.
It wasn't an ideal anniversary,
but you did get what you wanted in the end, right?
I guess, still doesn't make it feel any better.
Three years is a long time to just say goodbye, you know?
I know.
But that's why we focus on the things
that keep us moving forward, like the competition.
What are you going to do?
I just lost my competition partner.
I need to find a new one, fast.
Otherwise there's no chance at winning the grand prize money
to use towards the non-profit matching grant.
And without the prize money, I can't keep my program running.
That means I lose the most important thing of all,
my Tiny Chocolatiers.
I wish I could help, but we both know
I'm just not very talented in the kitchen.
Too bad it's not a Clickvids contest.
Right, you'd have us winning before we even started.
Wait a sec.
We should totally make a tutorial.
A tutorial, why?
Maybe the post will help you find a new partner.
Sage, that's a great idea,
except I've never done anything like that before.
It's easy, everybody is doing it.
All you have to do is create, and have fun.
You never know who's watching.
And there you have it!
A tasty dark chocolate castle,
unanimously the Tiny Chocolatiers favorite creation.
Oh, if you or anyone you know is interested in joining me
for the Masters of Chocolate competition this weekend,
just leave a comment down below!
Thank you for watching, and I hope you enjoyed
our royal adventure.
Although, what kind of hostess
offers this luxurious castle without the perfect prince?
And since we all know those are kind of hard to find.
Why don't we make one ourselves?
First, we will remove the melted chocolate
from the temperer...
...and gently stir.
We'll want our prince to have a lot of courage.
Crunch.
A tablespoon of kindness.
Who are we kidding, everyone loves a gentleman.
Coconut for his gorgeous smile and passion for life,
laughter and adventure.
He will be calm when you're upset
and understanding when you're sad.
And he will always know the right things to say.
Prince Charming, perfect in every way.
Grammy, the chocolate lady's prince is daddy!
Oh honey, that's Aria from Spoil Yourself Chocolatey
at Pop-Pop's Village.
You know her?
Of course!
She makes the best treats.
She's even competing in the big contest, too.
Really?
And if she's looking for a new partner...
Sweetheart, maybe you and daddy can swing by
the chocolate shop tomorrow to pick up my order.
Yeah!
Hey Sofie-bear, it's that time.
Daddy, do you believe in fairytales?
Yeah, sure. Why?
You wouldn't believe how many people
watched the tutorial and left comments.
But there are still no potential partners for the competition.
People are either afraid or out of town.
I'm sorry, I know you're disappointed.
Do you know how many hearts are going to be broken
when I tell the kids I have to shut down their program?
Including yours?
Don't lose hope, maybe I can--
[beads falling]
Definitely not, I'm gonna get the broom.
Just a second!
It's a great day to spoil yourself--
You okay?
Yes... runaway pearls.
What I was trying to say is I'm Aria Emerson and welcome.
I'm Ryan Knox and this is Sofie.
You're Charlotte and Jeffrey's son?
Yeah, the one and only.
It's nice to meet you, they've told me all about you
and especially their granddaughter.
You're in the competition daddy's working on!
That was the plan, but if I don't find a partner soon,
there isn't even going to be enough teams
to have a competition.
What? You can't just drop out.
Believe me, that's the last--
This is a huge deal for Woodbury Crest,
the whole town is relying on this event
to hike tourism.
Gee thanks, as if I didn't feel bad enough already.
I got a lot riding on this too, you know.
I'm sorry, it's just really important.
You sure you can't find anyone?
I've tried, trust me.
Don't look at me, I caused this disaster.
I'll just get Mrs. Knox's order for you.
What about you, daddy?
Everyone thinks you went to cake making school.
No, it's just like a hobby thing we do on the weekend.
See sweetheart, the goal here is to win, right?
And I'm pretty sure that making a cake
is not the same as making chocolate.
Not really.
If you can pipe frosting, you can pipe chocolate.
And my sister can teach you the rest.
Yeah, I saw her on Clickvids.
You saw that?
Well it's a crazy idea, but we'd be solving
both of our problems.
I mean yeah, but I'm a pretty slammed building up the space,
plus the painting...
Which you wouldn't be doing if there's no competition.
If you help me, I'll gladly take on some of the painting.
I'm not one to accept charity from strangers.
No, I appreciate that.
No offense, but trying to teach someone detail
I think would just slow down the process.
Well, that's what I would be doing with you.
Technically, it's my job to work in fine details.
How hard can painting be?
I think it's a win-win.
Okay, how about 7 a.m. starts, does that work?
Sure.
Can I make chocolate too?
Of course.
And if it's okay with your dad, you can take
my Tiny Chocolatiers class in the morning.
See why I'm even competing in the first place.
The grand prize money will help fund my program.
Yeah, she'll be there.
Your first order of business
and information on the class tomorrow.
Thanks.
You charge in smiles?
Anything to encourage the kids to get involved.
Especially the ones who need a little extra
helping hand in life.
Right, so on that note, what do I owe you?
For Mrs. Knox? Please, she's my number one customer.
It's on the house.
Thank you.
So I guess that means we will start tomorrow after the class.
Sounds like a plan.
Was nice to meet you both.
Nice meeting you.
Well, that was unexpected.
Alright my Tiny Chocolatiers,
how about a little review while we dive into our chocolatiering?
At our fun visit to the Woodbury Crest Chocolate Factory today,
where did we learn cocoa beans come from?
-Cocoa fruits! -Right.
And after the machines roast them,
they can be made into nibs for what?
-Chips! -Yeah.
And now that we know all about our main ingredient,
our Swirly Twirlies are gonna taste even better.
Don't worry, I'll clean up and watch the store
and then you and your new partner can get to work.
Yeah, when he finally gets here.
He'll be here.
Maybe this was a mistake.
Someone's gotta pick up his daughter, right?
[front door opening]
Okay, bye everyone!
Remember, anything is possible if you follow your heart,
dream big and go for gold!
Or in this case, sparkles.
Bye Aria!
Did you finish your castle, Sophie?
Can you fix it?
I don't see anything that needs fixing, but...
How about a wishing star to make sure
all your dreams come true?
Yay, now it's ready!
-Hey Soph! -Daddy!
Sorry we're late.
I didn't think you'd want me working
in my construction clothes.
How considerate.
It's nice to see you again, Mrs. Knox.
Always a pleasure, dear.
Just between us ladies, I wouldn't let my son
step into your kitchen unless he was fresher than pine.
Thanks, mom.
So, is your head full of chocolatey knowledge, or what?
Is your tummy just too full of goodness to care?
Shall we do this?
Yeah, a deal's a deal.
Well, good luck!
Bye daddy, bye Aria!
Okay, since we don't have a whole lot of time,
and so much to get done, I took the liberty
of choosing the first recipe for the competition.
I'm not exactly sure that's teamwork,
but it's your kitchen, so your rules I guess.
I didn't realize you'd care that much.
But yes, since we are a team,
would you like to toss in the coconut oil and vanilla?
Sure.
So, what are we making?
A no-bake brownie.
Every year the competition tosses in a wild card.
This year, there's no baking allowed.
That's interesting.
What, you don't like brownies?
I didn't say that.
You said, "interesting," which is code for not liking it.
But I do.
The only thing that really matters
is that the judges love it, right?
Right.
So why brownie?
Isn't that kind of basic, don't you think?
Actually it's rich, delicious, and solid.
Every showpiece needs a well-grounded foundation.
That way you can add different layers on top.
Okay, I get it.
It's like building a house, a foundation.
Exactly.
So how many teams are we up against?
Two, the best of the best from the east coast.
And we'll have 45 minutes to whip up our creation.
So we are gonna have to learn to work together
as quickly as possible.
Well, I'm up for the challenge.
Was that about the creation time,
or a dig at the idea of us working together?
And you are one fiery lady.
And you are super easy going.
Yeah, and this is going really well.
So what are we getting judged on again?
Formulation, interpretation, taste, and execution.
[text message alert]
Sorry, just work.
-So fun! -What?
Nothing.
Sorry, you know the boss' job never ends.
I'm sure you can attest to that.
So where were we again?
Pouring the batter.
While that cools, we should figure out the next layer.
I came up with a few possible ideas.
Ideas?
I thought you had everything figured out already.
Not exactly.
Listen, I know we're doing this whole teamwork thing,
but the extent of my no-bake knowledge
starts and stops with cheesecake.
Well that could work.
It's a chocolate competition.
No, as long as our creation is 80% chocolate,
we won't get disqualified.
Let's see, I have cream cheese and sour cream right here.
Perfect!
We'll see.
That's a positive turn of events.
What do you mean?
It seems like you're more of a pro in the kitchen
than you let on.
You'd be amazed what a single dad learns when he's hosting
a Weekend Baking Bash for his daughter, every weekend.
So, why chocolate?
It tastes good and it makes people happy.
Come on, there's gotta be more to the story than that.
Okay, it started with my sister's eighth birthday.
Sage really wanted to go to the Empire State building.
So, my dad bought plane tickets and booked the hotel.
And then this major snowstorm hit
and all the planes were grounded.
Our trip was canceled and Sage was devastated.
Yeah, no doubt.
So, I ran to the corner store and I picked up two of Sage's
favorites treats: chocolate and waffles.
And as I raced home past a creperie,
an epiphany struck.
What if I melt the chocolate and use it as glue
to make Sage her very own Empire State of Waffles?
And it worked!
Sage got her own little taste of New York
and I realized the power of a heartfelt dessert.
From that moment on, I've been obsessed
with all things chocolate.
Okay, time to see if we approve
and we can continue our crash collaboration course.
(Sage) Thank you, come again.
The texture is smooth, the flavor decadent...
I think we should put a scoop of this on top of the brownie.
Sorry to interrupt.
This is the first time I've had a moment between customers.
What's up?
The Dessert Network just commented
on your Clickvids video feed!
Really?
"Wonderfully talented and equally humorous Aria Emerson
takes making dessert to a whole new level,
all while allowing herself to be vulnerable and relatable.
And that part about her desire to help her non-profit for kids?
How could we not love her? - Rebeca Pattinson."
We are so pinning this comment!
She's right, you need to strike while the iron's hot.
[text message alert]
You know what, I should probably get going.
So for tomorrow morning, you okay instead of 7 a.m.,
to work on the sign, say 9 a.m.?
Yeah, works for me.
Okay.
Still a little chill in the air, huh?
I wouldn't exactly call it little.
What are you doing? There's a comment calling.
Yeah, I'm not really good at that kind of thing.
-And working-- -Helps you think.
Let me take the reins on the Rebeca thing
and you just focus on becoming the next Master.
Sof is out like a light.
She did have quite the busy day today
what with Aria's Chocolatier class and all.
Yeah, this is true.
Speaking of Aria, I think it was really sweet of her
to offer help with the venue.
I agree, but being sweet and being helpful
are two different things.
Aria comes across like the type of girl
who likes to do things her own way.
Well given her success, her way doesn't seem so bad.
She's practically a hometown hero of this contest.
Tickets almost sold out this morning after her sister
social media-ed that Aria found a new partner.
It's called a post, dad.
No, but I'm glad to hear it.
Hopefully that will entice the buyer to sign the papers
so you can finally make this sale.
Finally we can have time just to relax.
Which is something you need to learn to do, too.
I know, mom.
I'll worry about that after this competition.
If we can win this thing, this will send publicity
through the roof and send the buyer running to the contract.
And then I can go back to New York
knowing that you two are set for life.
We'll be fine either way.
So why that look?
Maybe your super-son does need to recharge sometimes.
Hey, just the person I was looking for.
Given this is our house, the odds of finding me here
were pretty high.
That's true.
So how was day one with Ryan? Positive?
Aside from his weak chocolate bedside manners,
he actually brought a pretty good recipe to the table,
so I can't complain too much.
Really? That's great.
So you're feeling confident that you're going to win it all?
What's going on?
There's a strong possibility I told Rebeca Pattinson
that you'd be competing in Masters of Chocolate
and there's an even stronger possibility that she said
she might show up and scout you on the spot.
What?
She said that their network is in dire need of a host
who's "poised under pressure, immaculate with art,
and most importantly, humble."
Which you totally are.
Sage, as much as I love the Dessert Network, I'm not a host.
And I am definitely not the Hollywood type.
I belong here with my store and my Tiny Chocolatiers.
You know that!
I do know that.
And there's a strong possibility I told them that, too.
And what did she say?
She said they're in the developmental stage
and they'd be open to talking to you about it,
but first they want to make sure
that you'd be their next it girl.
So, it hit me!
What better way to prove it than have Rebeca watch you
shine in your element.
Way to make a girl feel more anxious...
But this is amazing!
So you're not mad?
How could I be?
I wouldn't even be on her radar if it wasn't for you.
Thank you.
It's not for nothing.
You've been handling everything so well.
Then again, your partner is a fox, I mean a Knox.
Funny. [phone ringing]
Speaking of foxes.
-Hey babe. -Hi, Charlie.
Hey ladies.
Having a fun girls' night?
Oh, you know it.
Do you have all your snacks ready
for our virtual night at the movies?
I do.
But I'd prefer the real deal, if you know what I mean.
I do.
So, is that a yes then?
I'm sorry for making you wait.
Because I'd really like for you to move in with me.
Oh my gosh.
Charlie, I'm just not sure yet.
Really?
Is it because I asked you over the phone?
I knew I should've flown out there and asked you in person.
No, it's not that--
It's just, I really love you.
And I couldn't wait, you know?
I do.
Was it the job proposition?
Was that too much?
I just thought you did such a great job with Aria's website,
you might want to try it out with my restaurant, too.
Trust me, I love it all.
It's just, I'm kind of in the middle of something right now.
I'm sorry, I need a little bit more time
to figure things out.
Yeah. Sure.
[phone ringing]
It's the new sous chef for the restaurant.
I've got to take this.
Call you later?
Of course. I love you.
Love you too.
Why am I just finding out about this now?
We've just had so much going on with Jacob,
the competition, the shop--
You've dreamed of spending your life in New York City
since we were little kids.
Now you have a whirlwind romance and a job?
What's going on? Are you getting cold feet?
No, I just can't up and leave you.
Not now.
Sage, I will be forever grateful for all that you've done for me.
But at some point you have to stop following me
and start following your heart.
And I will, but not when you need someone you can trust
to take care of the shop while you focus on the competition
that's going to get you that grant.
-Are you sure? -Of course.
When things settle down here, I'll settle down in New York.
In the meantime, take advantage of me while I'm here.
Let's film another tutorial.
Another one, why?
To make sure Rebeca shows up to Masters of Chocolate
and help put Spoil Yourself Chocolatey on the map.
What if this one isn't as good?
Oh, please.
Knowing you, it's going to be even better than the first one.
You know, I should really post your rehearsals with Ryan.
I bet that would help grow your following even more.
I guess there's only one way to find out.
Hi guys, It's Aria Emerson again
back with another decadent dessert.
I just wanted to start by saying thank you for tuning in,
commenting, and sharing the video.
This has been very unexpected.
Guess I'm not the only one in search of Mr. Wonderful.
For today's live, I wanted to keep the beauty
and nobility flowing with another tasty treat
to keep you Spoiling Yourself Chocolatey.
Perfect.
If you're that concerned son, just go check on her.
Yeah, okay.
How's everything going?
You tell me.
It's not bad, actually.
Although it does look better if all your brush strokes
go in the same direction.
Right.
Then maybe you should finish up the last few letters?
Or I could help you finish the last few instead.
That works too.
So you and your dad built the village, huh?
You must have been pretty young, right?
Yeah.
We broke ground when I was in tenth grade.
Wow.
My grandad was the architect and my father was the foreman,
so I kind of fell in line and kept right on going.
What does that mean?
That means my family loved the village.
Between me wanting to be a part of that
and feeling obligated to follow in their footsteps,
I just kind of jumped right in.
Now I'm a foreman in Manhattan.
A top foreman, I hear.
Oh yeah?
Big city, big job, sounds like you have it all figured out.
Yeah, something like that.
Look at us team building.
I don't know about you,
but this half of the team is starving.
Would you mind grabbing a bite before we head to your shop?
Yeah, I could go for a Supreme Sub right about now.
Yes!
That was my go to when I used to live here.
Maybe we can grab one for my dad, too.
Great!
Hey pops, we'll be right back.
This is quite the detour to my shop.
Where are we going?
To the best place to enjoy our lunch.
Woodbury Crest's most hidden gem.
It's breathtaking.
I guess you've never been here before?
No.
Good, I thought maybe you'd appreciate it.
How did you manage to find this?
My pops and I came across it when we were working here.
We'd come out here just for a quick bite
or to spend some quiet time together.
Like hitting the reset button?
Yeah.
It really is beautiful.
I don't know how you tore yourself away from this place.
If I grew up here, I'd never want to leave.
I never really wanted to, to be honest with you.
Why did you?
Well, when my relationship with Sofie's mom ended,
you know I wanted a change.
So a friend of mine offered me a job
at a leading construction firm in the city, so I took it.
It seemed like the right choice at the time.
And now you're not so sure?
No.
Maybe it's because I'm still doing what I did
when I was a teenager.
Just following obligation and not leading my own path.
On the upside, it's never too late to make a change.
I'll remember that.
It's amazing how you can pass by a place every day
and not actually see what's right in front of you.
Ryan?
What?
I just figured out what we're working on next!
It's like you said,
even if something is right in front of you,
it doesn't mean you always see the whole picture.
I want to create that same experience for the judges.
So you want to hide our cheesecake under a shelf?
Exactly.
We watch them go on a flavorful ride
as they enjoy our chocolatey version
of Woodbury Crest's most hidden gem.
I think I'm starting to see why you're so successful.
Was that a compliment?
So cute, but this mini-doc is going to have to continue later.
Hi, how can I help you?
So how did the two of you find our quaint little town?
My dad used to take me and Sage here during our summer breaks.
He needed a place to escape to after my mom passed away.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I know how hard it can be to lose someone you love.
Thank you.
But it's because of those childhood memories
that I ended up here.
That and the town's nature and the comfort
of its close-knit community kinda stuck with me too.
Alright, for the moment we've all been waiting for.
[balloon popping] Oh!
I was referring to tasting the different flavors,
but that's fun too.
Right.
[balloons popping]
Guys!
Forgot we had an audience.
How about we start with a classic?
Yeah, okay.
The tartness from the raspberry I think will compliment
the neutral flavor of the cheesecake.
Impressive.
Well it is a staple, right?
Okay, so how about we think outside the box,
maybe go with something like this?
Mmm.
Lime.
Kind of sour at first, but I think it will linger
like a cozy fire once you bundle it with something sweet.
That sounded way better in my head.
There is nothing like the essence of coconut
to whisk me away to a tropical beach.
When I'm not bundled in lime, of course.
Oh, and the last one.
Now this is a caffè- infused shell, correct?
That's enough to put the steam into any judge's step.
It doesn't sound very appetizing when you put it like that.
Alright you two, let's get back to it.
And remember, I'm not even here.
I want natural chemistry
and we're gonna boost those ticket sales.
We have a few strong contenders
for the Masters of Chocolate competition, don't we?
Yeah, I think it's time for the judges to deliberate.
-Lime! -Coconut!
Alright, at least we've narrowed it down to two flavors.
What if we put them together?
They kind of complement each other, right?
They do...
Actually, you just gave me another idea.
I'm just flowing with them today.
Follow me.
Hey, that's not what I meant when I said,
"Act like I'm not here."
Crunchy texture, here we come.
Lime for you.
Coconut for you.
You must be really proud of all this.
Where did that come from?
I mean, just look at this space.
How could you not be?
Thank you.
I hope Sofie turns out as accomplished as you.
I couldn't have done any of this without my sister.
She's been my rock throughout the years.
And now more than ever, seeing as my last partner
just packed up his toque and kept it moving.
Let me guess, creative differences?
Yeah, to put it mildly.
Maybe it's for the best.
I find that true partnerships work
when it's the differences that complete you.
It's kind of like that in a relationship too, I think.
I never thought about it like that.
But yeah, the timing of his departure wasn't exactly ideal.
So that's why you were one man short for the competition.
It all makes sense now.
I think Jacob might have actually done me a favor.
Oh you do, huh?
Without him leaving, I never would have met my new partner.
Who I believe is more invested in helping me
save the Tiny Chocolatiers program than he was.
Oh, definitely.
Tada!
Phase two is almost complete.
You want to do the honors?
That is starting to look like a winner to me.
It is!
But how do we make the reveal equally as competitive?
I think I have an idea.
I'm always a big fan of those.
Everyone loves a gooey surprise, right?
This is a valuable lesson that I have learned
from my seven-year-old daughter.
She's not wrong!
What if we use hot fudge to melt the shell
and reveal what's inside?
I'd say we've got ourselves a presentation.
To marrying ideas.
And to drawing in a lot of people for my dad's final event.
Here, here!
You know, you really are the only single dad I've ever met
that bakes with his daughter every weekend.
Oh yeah?
I guess I didn't want Sofie to think
that mom's have all the fun, right?
I wanted to be one of those dads who can bake a cake
and tie a pigtail, too.
That's really sweet.
You got...
Oh.
Yeah, this can wait.
-Oh no... -Ryan was just--
She she just had some...
We were just wrapping up.
Yeah, we're finished.
Mmm-hmm, right.
I was just about to lockup,
I just need you to sign on the dotted line.
And the Barn threw in a coupon for their monthly
Harvest & Dine event tomorrow, too.
That's tomorrow already?
My dad was saying they started that earlier this year.
He's been wanting to take Sofie so she can experience
the whole handpicking your own produce.
He's into that farm to table thing.
You should do it, it's so fun.
And, there's tons of activities for kids to do there, too.
You know, we do need to stock up
on a few things for the competition.
I mean, we shouldn't settle for anything less
than the freshest ingredients
if we want to win the Masters of Chocolate.
Sounds like you're in for a visit
to the Berries and Blooms Barn.
And the timing couldn't be better, because the only thing
left to do at the venue is to complete the backdrop,
which technically isn't here till the day after tomorrow,
so my schedule's completely open.
Great! Seeing as we get to go,
it only seems right your family does, too.
Oh, where are we going?
I like where your head's at.
Lets keep that a surprise.
A surprise?
Yeah, kinda like what you guys are doing showing up here.
What's going on, hey?
Did you come to spy on our progress?
Actually, I was hoping you could do me a favor,
but it involves a little more painting.
Painting?
At Picture Perfect Painting.
That's a new art studio in the Village, right?
It is.
They're running a special for their grand opening tonight.
I figured you could swing by.
It's good for business to get feedback from people I trust.
We'll watch Sofie, of course.
Yeah, I think I could swing that.
Would you want to join?
Sage could come too if you make it a business thing?
I would love to, but I can't.
I have a phone date with my beau, but Aria, you should go.
You know, help out a fellow entrepreneur.
Yeah, why not?
I'll just get my things.
Great!
-What was that? -What?
It was nothing.
And the invite?
It's a work thing.
-I disagree. -And I have to go.
Oh come on, just admit it.
Ryan is smart and he's supportive,
and his manners have most definitely improved.
Well then, maybe you should date him.
He's too pretty for me.
He'll also be gone before you know it.
So if you're trying to play matchmaker,
it might be better if you do it with two singles
that actually live in the same city.
So you are interested?
No.
And besides, my focus should just be on one thing:
the competition.
You just keep telling yourself that.
Enjoy your date.
You too.
Hashtag sorry not sorry.
[phone ringing]
You're early.
Hi! Yeah, I'm sorry.
I actually had to make last minute plans
with my business partner tonight at the restaurant.
We're revamping the menu.
You never cancel our date nights.
Yeah, sorry babe.
But at least you have more time at the shop tonight, right?
It's after closing, but I mean whatever's best.
Charlie, if you're upset at me
for not giving you an answer yet--
No no, it's fine.
I want you focus on what's right for you.
It'll happen whether it's supposed to or not, right?
Yeah, right.
What about that marketing guy from the restaurant?
I promised Aria I'd give her an update.
Oh, he's totally onboard.
He said he's going to filter
some of the East Coast tourists out your way for the contest.
That's great news!
I'll pass the word along to Aria.
And check it out.
We'll be featuring one of your main desserts in our menu.
We'll get lots of interest happening in the competition.
You are the sweetest ever.
You really are one in a million.
If that was true then... oh, forget it.
[phone ringing]
Actually, I gotta take this phone call.
Raincheck?
-Of course. -Talk later.
-I love y-- [phone disconnects]
[phone ringing]
Oh, it's my sister's boyfriend.
They're supposed to be on their virtual date.
Virtual? That can't be easy.
Hey Charlie, is everything alright?
What if I let go and she doesn't come back to me?
What just happened?
Are you calling it off with Sage?
No!
But I don't know what to do about us living so far apart.
Oh...
I found this property down there for us,
but then I thought, "Am I being too presumptuous?"
She's obviously holding back for a reason.
So do I back off, or do you think that'll backfire?
Charlie, Sage's indecisiveness has nothing to do with you.
You sure?
Because you and I both know how obsessed she is with New York.
I mean, what does that say about the other half of the equation?
Stop.
Sage is just torn between finding her own happiness
and helping me with mine.
Which, honestly, isn't fair on either of you.
I've tried to talk to her about it,
but she has her heart set on taking care of family first.
I think I love her even more for that.
Once we get through the competition,
I have a feeling she'll be all yours.
Yeah, it is a pretty big deal for you and Woodbury Crest.
So take a breath and know that you two
are meant to be together.
I know I do.
Thanks, Aria.
Anytime.
Oh, and don't stress too much about the home.
There's no doubt Sage would be over the moon to have it,
but it's you she really wants.
Thanks.
It is so inspiring to see
students of all ages here tonight.
Because whether you're a big kid or a little one,
the same rules apply, just keep blending.
It's the key to a perfect sunset!
You know all that confidence I had
about painting fine details?
Yeah, it just went out the window.
And with it, should go my portrait.
It's not that bad, actually.
What?
My sun looks like a deflated balloon.
It's your first time, quit being so hard on yourself.
It just needs a little finesse.
Oh yes, that's easy for you to say, Michelangelo.
Yours looks like you just stole a piece
of the Sistine Chapel and glued it to your canvas.
I seriously feel for my future kids.
Maybe I should purchase the Deluxe Painting Package
before we leave.
Mommy can't be good at chocolate and bad at art, right?
You're being serious?
You want kids one day?
Of course, why wouldn't I?
I just thought maybe you had your hands full
with the shop and the Tiny Chocolatiers.
There's always room for a family.
Okay, everyone!
Before we end our evening together,
why don't we add one last detail?
It's always nice to have a few clouds
floating through our sunset.
Get liberal with mixing the red into your white paint,
and put those brushes to work.
This is your interpretation!
Here's hoping I don't end up with a bunch of pink raisins.
Here, how about I help you?
For the sake of your future children, of course.
Oh.
Hey, look what I did.
I mean, sort of.
It's amazing what you can do when you have
a little guidance and the proper tools, right Chocolatier?
Can you help me with one more?
I wouldn't mind having another one on the other side.
Yeah, sure.
Oh, what a magnificent piece!
No, there's nothing to be shy about here.
Working as one is a beautiful thing.
I love the exposition of the abstract sun
with the impressionistic clouds.
Normally my students ask me for help.
It's rare that I come across such teamwork between a couple.
Everyone, let's toast to these two artists,
for reminding us about the importance of unity.
Here, here!
Judging by the way you two work together,
your partnership will last a lifetime.
Good morning!
Aria, this looks beautiful.
It's my pleasure.
I'm just glad we were able to squeeze this trip in
with you guys in between the work.
I know I've been taking up a lot of valuable time with your son.
Oh, nonsense!
And I'm happy to report a five-star review
for the new art studio you referred us to.
That's good to know.
Ryan has been raving about his night with you also.
Oh...
Can I have that one?
Of course!
Sof, that belongs to Aria.
-Are you sure? -You're kidding, right?
No, I...
Sweet.
You know what, Sof?
When my family and I would visit Woodbury Crest,
this is where we'd get our produce from.
Because it's the best.
It's one of the reasons we're here today.
Our chocolatey creation needs all the help we can get.
You know what else can help?
-What's that? -Adding a butterfly.
They're good luck.
I think that's exactly what it needs.
And coming from a Tiny Chocolatier,
that idea couldn't be more perfect.
Yay!
[upbeat music]
Today's been fun.
Yeah.
The week with you, however...
That's not funny!
Oh, it's not?
Okay, it's been perfect.
What?
Yeah...
It's been fun.
You know, all of the impromptu adventures
with my creative partner and all.
Right...
Oh, you got...
I guess it's my turn.
Sweetheart, anymore than three seconds is a stare.
I know.
I see it too, grammy.
What?
Daddy's happy face.
[laughing]
Looks like we aren't the only ones having fun today.
35 years and somehow they manage to be more in love than ever.
Which reminds me...
I need to book tomorrow night's dinner reservation
at Un Goût de Magie.
-Never heard of it. -No?
Oh, you should go.
I mean you have to book six months in advance,
because they only seat like 20 people.
Oh no...
What's wrong?
I booked the wrong month.
And you can't change it?
No, I just looked. They're completely booked.
I chose this place because that's where my dad
first proposed to my mom.
I thought this would make their 35 years together
that much more special.
Yeah, I get it.
Oh well, right?
I just have to pick another place.
What about throwing your parents
a little surprise party instead?
That could work, but I don't know the first thing
about party planning.
Well, I do!
And since we don't have a whole lot of time,
it's best we keep it simple, intimate--
We? There's no we, this is my responsibility.
I will figure something out.
And Spoil Yourself Chocolatey will cater.
You're relentless, but the answer is still no.
Why not?
Because you have enough on your plate as it is.
Please!
This is your family we're talking about.
Your dad took a chance on me and my business years ago,
your mom is one of my best customers,
and now you're helping me out, too.
All good points.
So?
What's on your mind?
We have it at your parents' place.
Their home is lovely and their living room has that
nice open space, so it'll be easy to decorate.
You've been in our house?
They may have had me over for dinner a few times.
We'll invite their closest friends.
And like I said, because it's intimate, catering will be easy.
-Sound good? -Yeah, okay.
Great, I'll send out the evites tonight.
Okay, so besides me sending you the contact list,
what I can do?
Ryan, you have the trickiest job of all.
You've got to come up with a foolproof plan
to get them out of the house while we set up.
Right.
Thanks, Aria.
[giggling together]
-That one. -These are great pictures.
[text message alert]
Hold that thought, sweetheart.
Just one sec, it's just work.
They're just telling me they're doing fine without me.
Which means I've trained them well.
Now, where were we?
Oh yeah, strawberry faces!
So, we will send this one to Aria and we will tell her
that you are sending this with a great big smile.
You're smiling too, daddy.
I think it's because of Aria.
Oh, do you?
Grammy does too.
Please join us for food, good tunes, chocolate,
and a whole lotta love.
[text message alert]
And that led us to combining both our favorites
and then I suggested maybe we use
Sofie's hot fudge recipe to top it off.
Does that look even to you?
-Yep, perfect. -Excellent.
Once I'm done hanging the sign,
it's back to the shop for our final run through.
Did someone accidentally add a few shots of espresso
to your coffee this morning?
Why would you ask me that?
Because you've buzzing around like I haven't seen in years.
Maybe it's just good to be home.
You know I miss this place, I miss my family.
Makes me wonder why I ever took off to begin with.
You did what you thought was right at the time.
And then the big day comes when you finally realize
that all you were really doing was just running away.
Which is never the right answer.
That's not an easy reality to face son, but so true.
Do you think it's possible that someone has been
aiding you in your journey towards self-discovery?
Who do you mean?
-There it is. -What?
My answer.
Pops, you got it all wrong, okay.
I'm just happy to have the opportunity to give
back to my hometown and to the one man
who's given me everything.
That's very kind of you, son.
It has nothing to do with Aria. Nothing.
Right...
One thing's very clear.
You didn't get my poker face.
Alright Cinderella, cleaning can't be that fun.
Big day, that's all.
Today, or the last 24 hours?
You did spend it with Ryan's family after all.
Followed by an adorable goodnight text, oh yeah,
and there's also the ball you're about to attend.
It's the Knox's anniversary, Sage.
I'm working the chocolate station.
That hardly constitutes attending a ball.
I see your point, but is it possible
that the lines are beginning to blur
because you finally met your perfect prince?
Why don't we turn the tables for two seconds,
Miss Perfect Match in Manhattan.
What about Charlie?
We are going to have a video lunch date today--
You know that's not what I mean.
Sage, you might be my sister,
but at the end of the day, I am also your boss.
So as soon as this competition is over,
I'm ordering you to start packing.
You are?
Who's going to help you with the store?
I don't want you to worry about that anymore.
I will find someone else, I promise.
Okay, under one condition.
You take what I said about Ryan
and give it some serious thought.
Fine.
[door opening]
Oh, there he comes bearing gifts.
What are you doing?
Boosting your following, people love this kind of thing.
Good morning, ladies.
In honor of our last day.
Coffee with a splash of coconut milk and a hint of vanilla.
Left the lime out, I figured that'd be too much.
Someone trying to earn extra credit on their last day?
Maybe.
Well the real credit is earned in the kitchen.
So, let's see how well you do with jalapeños.
Mmm, spicy.
There you have it, folks.
Woodbury Crest's golden duo is going to be
spicing things up and you're not gonna want to miss it.
Tickets are still on sale and if you can't make it,
I will be sure to Clickvids some of the highlights.
Okay, bye!
Coming in with fire and earning a perfect score
is going to be Team Chocolatey.
Boom! Drop the spatula.
-Now we reduce the heat-- -To caramelize the sugar.
Are you sure you didn't pretend to be new at this
so you could seem all fancy at the end of the week?
You'll never know.
How about a quick review just in case?
Okay.
We started our crash course by...
Laying our foundation, I believe that's where I got my first A.
Layered it with a Ryan original gem and topped it off
by moulding our coconut and lime-infused shell.
Pretty sure I aced that too.
But now, Mr. Baker from the big city,
it's time to see how well you pipe chocolate.
Are you ready to tackle the garnish?
Considering my pattern of history in my sunset,
I'm feeling pretty confident.
Oh, that's perfect.
Do you really have to head back to New York?
Because Spoil Yourself Chocolately is currently hiring.
Right, because of that Jacob guy.
Don't tempt me, that sounds like an offer
I may not be able to refuse.
Not to mention, by me being here
it's made me realize that work can function without me.
Really?
Yeah.
[boiling crackling noise]
I should get that.
In all seriousness, I wouldn't be opposed to it.
It's been nice creating with a partner whose focus
isn't on how our products can affect our next business move.
Then I suppose we owe Sophie a big thank you
for our successful partnership.
Care to do the honors this time?
Just gently brush.
Kind of like our modern impressionistic clouds
from art class.
The water acts as an adhesive for the glue.
Cool!
Totally implementing this into the next Weekend Baking Bash.
It's pretty amazing how quickly you can form a bond
in such a short amount of time.
Yeah, I know.
[phone ringing]
I have to take a call.
Yeah, I should probably get going anyway.
It's almost time for my parents' couples massage.
Oh, that's what you went with. Nice.
I'll see you in a few hours.
[party chatter]
[phone vibrating]
-It's time. -They're here!
On the count of three.
Three, two, one...
Surprise!
Happy Anniversary!
So?
I'm still considering.
Well, consider this.
I have never seen you light up
like you do when you're with him.
Time's running out.
Sage, it's not that simple.
The hardest things in life usually aren't.
Just talk to him, before it's too late.
Excuse me, Aria?
Happy Anniversary, Mrs. Knox.
We're both so touched.
How can we begin to thank you for this beautiful surprise?
After all the years of support, it's the least I could do.
Besides, it was very important to Ryan
that your day be extra special.
I'm just glad we could make that happen.
You have.
And now I understand why he wanted us
to bring a nice change of clothes to the spa.
I thought that was a bit strange.
Well your son has done his share of surprising me, too.
In fact, this was inspired by one of our collaborations.
Really?
The coconut gives it a light, playful feel
and the lime gives it a zesty sweetness.
It's a lovely pairing.
-Aria? -Yes?
I'd like to thank you for making Ryan feel like himself again.
His grief has been making it hard for him
to get back into the kitchen.
You see, creating in the kitchen was something that he did
on the weekends with his wife and after she passed...
His wife passed?
And he reserved that tradition for Sofie only.
I am so sorry, I didn't know.
It's difficult to talk about.
But the thing is, Aria, you have somehow managed
to break through his protective wall.
He's having fun again.
I just feel like I have my Ryan back.
Well, if it isn't the two prettiest ladies in town.
Happy Anniversary, Mr. Knox.
Thank you, Aria. Let me try this.
Mmm.
I don't know what's more impressive,
the fact you pulled off a surprise party in our own home,
or that you made your chocolate taste better
than the day you opened shop.
I'm just glad to hear you still approve.
Alright, we'll see you soon dear.
Oh! That was my fault.
Daddy, I don't want to leave.
I know, sweetheart.
But New York is where our life is.
Plus, I've got all my grown up responsibilities there.
But you said they're doing just fine without you.
I did say that, didn't I?
Uh-huh.
But it's okay, you make chocolate now.
[laughing]
That's just for one more day, sweetheart.
But not forever?
Well, it's not that easy.
Plus, wouldn't you miss all your friends back home?
I'll miss Grammy and Pop-Pop way more.
That's a good point.
And Aria.
Yeah, me too.
Sorry, that's the first time I've been able
to keep Charlie on the phone long enough
to have a full conversation.
Whoa, are you okay?
You're not going to believe what Mrs. Knox just told me.
Please gather around everyone, I would like to propose a toast.
First of all--
It can wait.
We can't thank you enough
for surprising us here this afternoon.
And to Aria and Ryan for making all of this possible.
Jeffrey, honey.
Every day I realize what an honor it is
to stand alongside you.
Your constant, selfless love shows me how much you love me.
Jeffrey...
Happy 35th Wedding Anniversary, darling.
To the love of my life!
I am as speechless as the first day I caught sight of you.
[glasses clink]
I love you, darling.
Alright, drink up and enjoy the food,
because we can't squeeze all that into our refrigerator.
Well, that's one victory down.
One more to go.
Duty calls.
Are you sure I can't help?
Positive.
How about you? You want one more dance
with the coolest dad in the world, or what?
Actually, we were gonna go take a tour
of the Spoil Yourself Chocolatey catering van, if that's okay?
Sage says it's a moving refrigerator!
Okay yeah, that's okay.
Mind topping me off?
Excuse me?
You are doing refills tonight, right?
No, I'm sorry man.
I'm not even a guest, I'm--
Crashing the party, too?
What?
See the girl over there?
-Aria? -Yeah.
Does she seem like the forgiving type to you?
Because I sort of messed things up with her.
What'd you say your name was again?
I didn't. I'm Jacob, her ex.
Nice to meet you.
Ex-employee?
Boyfriend.
You must be from out of town, because everyone around here
knows that Aria and I were Woodbury's biggest power couple.
No, I'm from here actually.
Huh.
Anyways, I am here to right my wrongs.
Put her back in the spotlight
and give Aria everything she's ever dreamed of.
A successful business and a reliable partner.
And you think you can give her that?
Yeah.
She's in for one big surprise,
and I'm not just talking about the chocolate bar
that we'd be bringing home
from the Masters of Chocolate competition tomorrow.
You should come.
Yeah, bring your family too.
It's the only half-decent thing going on in this town.
Thanks for the tip.
Thank you for the pep talk.
It is that work ethic that's always captured my heart.
[head banging]
And that pretty face, too.
Jacob, what are you doing here?
I went by the store and saw you were closed early
for a special event.
One of the vendors mentioned this little party,
so I thought I'd stop by.
I worked for the Knox's too, you know.
Yeah, but why?
To check on you.
Great idea, by the way, the Knox's must be paying
a pretty penny to do a house call.
-Here, let me look at that. -Thanks, but I'm fine.
Do you think we could go somewhere and talk in private?
Quickly out front.
You shouldn't even be here.
Why didn't you just call me if you wanted to talk?
Because these types of exchanges are meant to be done in person.
Apologies?
That too.
Jacob, what is going on?
I really need to get back inside.
These past few days, I've had time to think.
Not having a contest to focus on can do that.
Okay, I deserve that.
Aria, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for turning my back on you
and the Tiny Chocolatiers.
It doesn't matter anymore, it's all working out now.
Yeah, but you're still missing something.
That's why I came here tonight.
What does that mean?
We may disagree on the vision of your store.
But in time, I have a feeling that will change.
Especially now that the Dessert Network
is interested in your work.
How do you know about that?
That's not important.
But what is, is you focusing on what we both agree on.
You finally getting your perfect prince.
Aria, what do you say?
Forgive me?
Jacob, I'm sorry...
An apology isn't necessary,
but a hug would be appreciated.
It's nothing to forgive.
But this isn't what I want.
Honestly, I don't think it's what you want either.
We have been heading in two different directions
for a long time now and that's not going to change.
You're a great guy,
but I want someone who loves me for me,
who supports my ambitions.
Someone whose differences complete me.
So this is it then?
It's really over?
It is.
I'm so sorry.
But there's no doubt in my mind
that your perfect match is out there right now
just waiting to meet you.
Now you're free to go find her.
I've been looking for you. What happened?
Hey sorry, Mom.
I just got caught up in another big mistake.
I was just reminded how easily I can be replaced.
I'm gonna go for a walk.
There must be some explanation.
Yeah. Aria's with her ex.
Are you really back together with Jacob?
What? No.
Okay, I didn't think so.
Ryan was convinced otherwise after witnessing it for himself.
What?
He told me to tell you good luck with your partner
and he took off.
-He left? -I'm so sorry, Aria.
I really didn't know what to say.
[phone dialling]
He's not answering. What do I do?
I'm sure he just went somewhere to clear his mind.
I bet he'll be back before we even finish up here.
And if he's not?
Then we'll find a way to fix this, okay?
Okay...
Sorry for ruining your big night.
You didn't ruin anything.
Come, sit with me.
I've been reading so many fairytales to Sofie,
I think I actually started to believe
that I could have my happily ever after, too.
And you don't think you still can?
Aria was pretty upset when you left.
She was?
Seemed to me like she was getting
everything she ever wanted.
So you decided that Aria prefers to be
with this other fellow before asking her what she wants?
Ryan, we both know it's time to let go
and open up to this new opportunity.
And if you're lucky enough to get a second chance at it,
maybe you should fight for it.
Because this time honey, you're able to.
Anyway, just think about it.
Maybe it's worth sticking around for the plot twist.
[phone vibrating]
Ryan's phone is still going to voicemail.
He could just be busy with his parents.
It's technically still their anniversary.
And you need your phone off for that?
I think it's pretty clear I'm the reason it's off.
I'm afraid to ask, but what does this mean
for the competition tomorrow?
No partner means no chance to help my Tiny Chocolatiers.
And no competition means kissing the Dessert Network goodbye.
Which is such a bummer
considering Rebeca's attendance was pretty much in the bag.
Your last Clickvids tripled in views.
I just can't believe you put your plans on hold
with Charlie for all this.
I'd do it again.
Will you tell him I said thank you, by the way?
He did so much to help, this really was a team effort.
Of course.
Okay, what are you thinking?
I'm going to compete, alone.
I mean it'll be difficult, but it's not impossible.
This whole competition was never about me.
It was about helping my kids
and I am not gonna let them down.
How can I help?
There's still time to do a solo tutorial tonight.
I'll run the clock!
[upbeat instrumental music]
Life changes and so do the rules
Everybody knew that we had something to do
Life changes with the good and the bad
No exit, no exit
Life changes and so do the rules
If everybody knew that we had something to do
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Jaime Bradford!
[applause]
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the Masters of Chocolate.
I am your host, Jaime Bradford,
and you are about to witness three of the finest teams
on the East Coast battle
for fifteen thousand dollars
and the chance to call themselves Masters of Chocolate.
Now let's meet our teams.
This couple met over a dropped truffle
and they have been whipping up chocolate ever since.
Please welcome, all the way from Augusta, Maine,
Team Coco Creations.
[cheers and applause]
Sharing their southern charm are best friends
and business partners from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
competing for team Chocolate Love.
[cheers and applause]
Now a lost partner won't stop
tenacious Aria Emerson from melting our chocolate.
She is Woodbury Crest's very own--
Well hold the chocolate chips!
Ryan, you're here.
Your friend Jacob, thought it might be a good idea
to follow through with some old plans.
If you'll accept my apology.
What's this?
Could these two be teaming up again
to help Spoil Yourself Chocolatey?
Hey.
Uh-oh. I'll be right back.
Teams, in the meantime, take your places to prepare.
We'll be back in a few.
Aria, I messed up.
I should've just talked to you.
But I was afraid, so I ran away.
Turns out that's my go-to habit
when I lose someone that I deeply care about.
I'm working on it.
Apparently it's never too late to make a change.
Right?
Aria, I don't want to lose you.
And Sofie doesn't want to lose you either.
So if you can find it in your heart...
please forgive me?
You had me at good idea.
What?
If someone told me a week ago
that I would literally fall into the arms
of the man of my dreams...
I wouldn't have believed them.
But here you are, standing right in front of me.
How could I not forgive you, Ryan Knox?
You complete me.
Team Chocolatey?
It looks like the judges will allow your late re-entry.
So without further adieu,
let's get this competition started!
The clock starts in three, two, one...
Get mastering!
How about you show me how the graduate
performs under pressure, starting with foundation first?
Sounds like a great idea,
especially considering what I did last night.
Taking a quick trip down Chocolatey Lane
and it looks like they have the makings of a party.
Is this a little early competition celebration?
Team Chocolatey always has something to celebrate.
And today, it's one shell of a surprise
with a crunchy zip we're hoping will impress the judges.
Well there you go.
Aria Emerson, chocolatier and party planner
365 days a year.
I'm already tired.
Let's go see how Coco-Creations is doing
with their Re-fudge-u-lissly delicious Bars.
Excuze-moi?
Team Coco-Creations, this is not a peanut factory!
Your not so secret ingredient
is going to get you in a sticky situation!
You got chocolate?
Doubling down on PB is going to cost you.
I think someone forgot the cardinal rule:
80% chocolate.
And they're outta here folks.
[buzzer sounds]
That is an automatic disqualification.
That's devastating.
Don't worry, that's not going to happen to us.
Team Chocolatey, beware.
Chocolate Love is coming in hot with their cake.
Looks like you can ban the oven,
but you can't keep out the creativity.
We came here with the intention of leaving our competitors
in a trail of our cocoa dust.
And these Hold On To Your Cakes ladyfingers are,
well, they're a foolproof way to get the judge's attention.
And there you have it, folks.
And with time quickly dwindling down,
who do you think has what it takes
to snag that golden chocolate bar?
Let me hear it!
[cheers and applause]
Team Chocolatey!
Guess I can't blame those runaway pearls this time.
Nope!
Looks like all that chit-chat's got you two trailing behind.
Hurry up!
That's our cue to pick up the pace even more.
I'm sensing a little friction in this kitchen.
When it comes down to the wire,
we find out who can really take the heat.
And with three minutes remaining,
things are really getting hot!
Come on Woodbury Crest, make some noise with me!
[cheers and applause]
Here's hoping we take the judge's breath away.
You've already taken my breath away,
so I feel like I've already won.
Here we go, chocolate lovers!
Count with me, in three, two, one...
That is time!
[cheers and applause]
Thank you.
And now the moment we have all been waiting for.
This year's Masters of Chocolate goes to...
Aria Emerson and Ryan Knox
from team Spoil Yourself Chocolatey!
[cheers and applause]
Mom, Dad, friends, family, heck, everyone.
Come on up here and congratulate
your new Masters of Chocolate!
Yay Daddy!
[cheers and applause]
Charlie?
Sage, I don't want to spend another moment without you.
I hate long distance.
Me too.
I thought you were going to break up with me.
Are you kidding?
I was just trying to figure out what would make you happy.
So...
instead of being torn between your dreams
of living in the Big Apple or your family out here,
we now have a place of our own in both.
Charlie, it's perfect.
I love you so much.
Does this mean that we're gonna be one big family now?
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Excuse me, Aria Emerson?
Rebeca Pattinson from The Dessert Network.
Oh hi.
I couldn't miss today's show.
Between your successful Clickvids
and today's exciting performance,
my boss and I have agreed that,
not only do you have what it takes
to light up TV screens across the nation,
so does your real-life romance.
How would you two feel about becoming The Dessert Network's
first ever co-hosting couple?
Speechless?
Well, considering a little birdie
told our network what you're most passionate about.
Perhaps I can convince you with this.
We'd like to further sweeten the deal
by creating a TV show about you two
and your charming and inspirational
Tiny Chocolatiers' program
at Spoil Yourself Chocolatey, of course.
We couldn't possibly re-create such a compelling brand in LA.
That's amazing!
So, I guess we have a deal?
Yes!
So daddy, now do you believe in fairytales?
I think Aria knows the answer to that one.
And they lived happily ever after.
In their dark chocolate castle, of course.
Of course.
