Doce Vika Catalog...

To those of you who did not know yet, since April 2011 I am the happy and proud owner of little specialty store with loads of organic and gourmet foods, here, in Norway. It is a real store with an online version as well. A store is an amazing thing to make, a real big thing, it took a lot of time to conceive, lot of effort to design and develop and the final product is the result of heavy, heavy, heavy work... but it is totally worth paying this heavy work price. It is a dream that came true...

So now I own a food store and the last six months were spent developing our business, planning all the details just the way I dreamt it (and the ways we can afford it) so it can grow healthy and steady. It is not easy but our little Doce Vika is growing.

Our Christmas Catalog is out now and it is filled with delicious gifts ideas for people of all ages and preferences. Teas from Løv Organic, Kusmi, Pukka, Hari, Les Contes de Thé, Harney & Sons and many others... coffee, teapots from FORLIFE, chocolates from Vivani, Venchi, Divine, Meium Sjokoladefabrikk and Valrhona for Ligne Blanche. The entire line of chocolate from Ligne Blanche are packaged in beautiful tinboks with artwork of Andy Warhol, Keith Haring and Jean Michel Basquiat...just amazing!

Plus: An amazing selection of Norwegian products: chocolates, breads, cookies, jams, juices and sausages. The most perfect Turkish Turkish delights, artisan English cookies, French jams and gelés and organic oils, vinegars and sauces from organic producer Clearspring. Clearspring products were 2011's great revelation, not just in terms of quality, because they have super high quality, specially the Japanese items. As a company Clearspring is an example that high quality product can go hand in hand with good practices. I am so proud to stock Clearspring products. 

The catalog is all in Norwegian but I hope you enjoy it...
