About Us
Creek House Patisserie (CHP) has been in business since 2005. We produce fine, high quality artisan chocolates and delicious pastries out of our commercial kitchen in Oregon. Our products are available from retail stores in Oregon, and internationally through online sales.
Chocolates: Creek House's critically acclaimed chocolates do not contain any preservatives, and are made in small batches from premium chocolate, cream, butter, and all-natural flavorings. Please read the great reviews we receive from satisfied customers. Our chocolate truffles are known for their perfectly tempered "shells" and very creamy chocolate centers. Flavorings are never overpowering, and allow the great taste of fine chocolate to fill your senses. You may click on links on this website to order directly from us, through Chocolate.com, or through Amazon.com.
Pastries: Creek House's pastry business is mostly wholesale to Ashland, Oregon restaurants, and specialty stores. We do take individual retail orders on a limited basis for pick-up in Ashland. We invite you to take a look at our Pastry Product List. Creek House pastries do not contain preservatives, artificial flavorings, or artificial colors, and are made using classic baking methods.
