I know that this might be a stupid question, but once I become a master chocolatier, does that mean I beat the game? Because there's nothing to do anymore except look after my factories.
[Edit: That's pretty much the end of the story. But you can keep playing just for fun. You'll keep getting orders from your shops. -Pam]
Hello,
I am having the same problem as a few others have listed, with the truffle quest.
I have given all of the truffle types to the board members and have gotten all 5 recipes in return. I've also made all of these recipes except for the sesame one as the sesame seeds haven't appeared.
The light for 'have 11 truffle recipes' is green, but whenever I go to see Evangeline she just tells me 'keep up the good work'.
I have gone to every place in every city 4 more times since then and am getting no quests and no other advances aside from the occasional telegram.
Is this a bug or have I missed some sort of step?
Please let me know.
Hi Pam,
Thanks for your reply. The only other thing it says is 'talk to Evangeline in SF' and when I talk to her, she just says 'Keep it up'. I'm starting to think I've run into a bug and I just won't be able to advance any farther.
This game has crashed twice and come up with the 'report this' button, so I think maybe the code is broken. Ah well.
Thanks again.
[Edit: It does sound like maybe something's wrong with your game. Maybe you should download the game again from the site where you originally purchased the game. If you're lucky, it will download into the same spot and you won't lose your progress. -Pam]
I can't get past Joseph Tangye's coffee blend endorsement - I have 10 recipes and I just need 1 more!
I'm missing the recipe anise coffee blend and the dark chocolate coffee blend. When or where will I find this?
I'm also, strangely, doing the exotics endorsement at the same time and I can't get past this one either. I know its normal to do more than one quest at the same time in this version of the game, however, two endorsements? I don't think that's right - maybe my game has a bug?
For the exotics I need the recipe with honey, and the three on the bottom row of the recipe book.
Help?
[Edit: Yes, you do both Joseph's and Whitney's endorsements at the same time. -Pam]
To everyone stuck on quests:
It's important to thoroughly search each and every port. There are many places that don't always seem like a place to look. Mouse everywhere on the screen and click on anything that pops up. Also, check back with board members often. They can set you in the right direction many times.
Ok so I am at the part where alex asks me to make 25 of each thing to give to the woman in the Falkland Islands to try and save sean, but I need Honduran cocoa to make this truffle, I dont have any port unlocked that sells this and it seems im missing alot of places other people have, I've taklked to all the endorsers again and again and they just keep telling me that i should keep up the good work, please I am so stuck and this game is just way to addicting to quit now. any help?
Hi--loving Choc. 3, but I am stuck (like so many others) on the 100 ea. of truffles (off the top of my head, the ones w/ pumpkin, the cameroon ones and the peruvian something)
Anyway, is there something I can do so they don't go bad in my inventory? I've tried anything I can think of, but I either run out of money or the amounts go down.
Help!!
Steph - you're running out of money? maybe try waiting until you've saved up enough to start producing the 100 of each. you can make a big profit on something with rose petals or saffron as an ingredient. you could also try resetting your factory production rates to the fastest you can. and make sure as many factories as possible are working on that order simultaneously. those strategies worked for me...
To Racheler:
You shouldn't get a quest for a recipe that contains an ingredient that's not available. You'll get the recipe, but not a required quest. Sesame seeds are triggered by a visit to Evangeline. The clues about Sean come as you travel. I don't have specific information at the moment, but I'll post it when I do.
To Woody:
Your first shop -
It's in Tangiers. Visit Morocco Vine Coffees and talk to Zachariah Tangye. He'll get you started on your quests to own the shop.
I'm having trouble getting the 11 recipes together for the last endorsement.
I've got 7 coffee blend recipes total, and I've got ALL the other recipes and filled all 8 slots available to me for my own creations, what do I need to do? I own all five shops, and have 12mil in the bank account too!
I'm getting the odd special order, but not many, mostly I'm just travelling from port to port filling in the time until I get the other coffee blend recipes.
[Edit: Try talking to all of the board members again. They often tip you off to new quests. -Pam]
I am so completely stuck I may quit the game. I can't get ports like toronto, san fran, wellington, peru to open. I've configured 3 factories for all the products, purchased one ingredient of everything, done probably 100 quests, and now I'm just wasting time. I have 29 million and umpteem ingredients in inventory. How do I get to new ports and to the truffles and coffee blends?
And yes, I've gone to every port to every place a million times.
To Holly:
About opening ports -
Based on the ports you mentioned, it sounds like the one you haven't triggered on schedule is San Francisco. The rest fall in line after that. You have Zurich, Cape Town, and Tokyo, right? Do you have the endorsement of Dieter Baumeister in Tokyo? San Francisco is where Evangeline is located. Dieter would be the one to send you to her once you have done everything to earn his endorsement, like Felix in Cape Town sent you to Dieter. The thing that concerns me is how you could have configured Tokyo for every product without having Dieter send you to Evangeline in San Francisco.
Check your Quests screen to make sure that you've cleared everything for Dieter, and go to him and see if he'll send you to Evangeline. I'm quickly approaching the place where San Francisco opens up on one of my current games, if I'm wrong about it being Dieter, I'll post again.
I have the same problem as Suefrans that I'm at the point where I have to create 100 each of 4 different truffles for delivery. Every time I create 100 of something and then move on to create the others, it takes so long that my original 100 degrade and I'm left with next to nothing. How can I create 100 of all 4 for delivery?
Pam,
Thank you so much for your reply about my problem getting ports to open. (I was about going nuts with thinking I'd have to do this for endless hours, and now I think that wouldn't work...)
I definitely completed the quests for Dieter's endorsement (and did this in 3 separate games I had running) and it shows green in all the tasks for that. I opened the screen for him multiple times and got nothing, and San Francisco never opened. Could my game be glitched?
To Passawee:
About truffles -
How many truffles do you make in a week? It's possible that you just don't make them quick enough. My truffle production ranges from 22 as the lowest all the way to 70 as the highest. Most are around 35 to 50.
Another option would be to configure a second factory to make truffles so that you can have two factories working on them at the same time.
Make a little more than the 100 required to allow for some to degrade.
To Holly:
More about opening San Francisco -
I checked in my "all quests" list and found the one for Dieter's endorsement and the one for meeting Evangeline. Here are screenshots of both of them.
Making Evangeline's Acquaintance
There's a button at the bottom left of the quests screen that will let you view all quests, which includes completed ones. Look there and see if you find these two particular quests. In my game, there are four random quests between Dieter's endorsement and meeting Evangeline. You can check yours to see if you have the same ones just as reference.
My suggestion would be to start the game one more time with the knowledge that Dieter sends you to Evangeline shortly after you gain his endorsement. It may not be immediate, but it would be soon. If you still just absolutely don't get that quest, maybe try downloading the game again from the site where you originally purchased the game in case you've got a faulty copy of it.
I hope this helps you. :)
Help Please....I am stuck forever I think.
I have all my ports unlocked with the exception of Baghdad.....I have 2 shops and working on the 3rd, but there is no way in this world that I can make all 4 of the truffle receipes without losing one while working on the last one. Each time I get 3 made and start on the fourth one, then one declines & disappears. I have tried everything...I've bought all the ingredients for all 4 receipes...then my inventory starts to disappear...I've tried making one receipe at a time, that doesn't work.....
How in the world do you get through this task?
I just can't do it fast enough.....
Can you help me please?
Thanks,
Wiggie :-))
To Holly:
San Francisco -
Let's double check that we're talking about the same people and locations. I just played through this stage of the game a few minutes ago.
First, Felix Baumeister in Cape Town sends you to see Deiter Baumeister in Tokyo. Deiter gives you his quest for finding infusion recipes to earn his endorsement. Once you have found them, Deiter (in Tokyo) tells you how great you are and gives his endorsement. I clicked away to buy some ingredients and then clicked on the Tokyo factory again. At that point, Deiter gave me the quest to go see Evangeline in San Francisco.
Are you absolutely sure that you are completing Deiter's quest in Tokyo and clicking on the factory again after completing the quest for all of the infusion recipes?
I can't think of anything else to tell you. If the steps above don't trigger San Francisco, I think you need to download your game again, thinking that perhaps there's a bug in the one you've got now.
Let me know how it all goes for you. :)
Thank you, Kayleigh. The problem I am having is that they are not available when I go to those ports. They aren't available anywhere, and I don't know what to do to make them available. I am a master chocolatier. I've done everything it has asked me to do, but I can't make those two ingredients available. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
To Nikki:
Ok, I just played the part with the coconut and candied rose petals.
Motochika Haneda caught me in the middle of travels and asked for 35 cases of two of my creations in exchange for two recipes. When he caught up to me again, he took the 70 total cases and gave the recipes. In the next screen, he told me that candies rose petals are now available in Zuric, and coconut is now in Bali. Here's a screenshot of it:
Access to Coconut and Candied Rose Petals
Do you remember getting the quest for the 35 cases of your creations? That's what triggers the ingredients being available.
Nikki:
Check your quests list and select the button that allows you to view all quests, both pending and the ones completed. Look to see if you find the one where the guy wants 35 cases of each of your creations. I wonder if maybe you accidently clicked "no" on that one when it popped it.
If after all of that, and after playing through the game one more time knowing that's where the rose petals and coconuts will be released and being on the watch for them... well, if you still don't get the ingredients then, I think you should down load the game again.
Pam,
Yeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!....your suggestion of ordering more ingredients and using more factories at once worked....oh man, thanks so much for your suggestions on the 4 orders of truffles @ 100 each order....
I opened all 4 factories, bought the machines so they would make my truffles in all 4 factories.....it worked like a charm..lol...of course I had over 10 Mill to work with so that helped...now I'm off in great shape....
Thanks again for helping this 57 yr. old Nana make her way through the 3rd shop and owning 6 factories now.....weeeeeeeeeeee!!!!
Have a great evening!
Wiggie :-))
[Edit: I'm very happy it worked for you! Come back if you get stuck somewhere else and I'll try to help you out again. -Pam]
I've reached the end and have continued playing, filling orders as they come up (at least until the next version is released). I have a problem though that sometimes an order will be for ###### instead of a particular type of chocolate or blend. Occasionally I'll actually get an order for orange pecan stars for example, but more often I just get this order for #######. Is there some way to fix this?
[Edit: It sounds like a bug in your game. Maybe try starting a new game and see if it does it again. If so, I'd suggest that you download the game again from the site where you originally purchased it. -Pam]
To Jimmie:
To unlock Bogota -
Deliver an order to Tokyo Tower in Tokly and accept a new order. When you go to the factory to make the new order, Deiter will send you to Imperial Palace. That will trigger the opening of Bogota.
To Rachel:
About Wellington and Toronto -
Have you gotten the actual quest from Evangeline to make a case of specific truffles for each board member? The one where you have to figure out which kind goes to each member? It's that particular quest that opens Wellington and Toronto.
OPENING LIMA PERU/PERUVIAN CACAO
unlocking Lima Peru may take time after you have completed the first 8-9 truffles.
the peruvian cacao can be found in Peru but since it is not yet unlock, you must complete at least 1 case of each truffles and accept the order coming in. (i forgot the name of the order)
then proceed to Zurich and find Alex. that's it!
To Chocolatier2:
I'm at the same spot as you in my current game. Here are some things to help trigger finding Sean:
After earning all of the endorsements, go see Joseph Tangye in Toronto. He will give you a new space in the recipe book. After you make your new creation, Rick will find you in travels. He will tell you that Alex is eager to speak to you. Alex finds you in travels a little later, gives you another two spots in the recipe book, and tells you that Sean is alive. She will keep you posted.
After triggering all this, the quest for Sean should continue.
Hi,
I've noticed several postings from people that have gotten stuck in the same place I am but have not been able to resolve the problem using the listed responses. I am attempting to find the sesame seeds and have visited every available port, done all other quests and continue to return to Tangiers but I still can not find them. I've been flying around aimlessly for over a year now. Can anyone help?
To Chocolatier2:
Exactly where are you stuck?
You've made your latest creation, right? Did Rick find you in travels and tell you that Alex is eager to speak to you? Has Alex found you? Are you stuck past this spot?
To Shaoni:
About the sesame -
You need to go see Evangeline in San Francisco. She will give you a quest to South America and sesame seeds will then be available in Tangiers.
Ok so I fear I may be stuck. I have the endorsements of Felix and Deiter, I have a shop in Kona, and in Tangiers. Here are the ports that are open so far, Kona, Havana, Bogota, Reykjavik, Zurich, Tangiers, Douala, Cape Town, Uluru, Bali, and Tokyo. I have two orders that I can't fill because of being stuck one is from Susana Vanegas she wants Dark Colombian Cacao Lime Infusions (I can't find the recipe anywhere ) then I have another for Yuriko Haneda for Strawberries, but those are in Vegas I think and well I don't have that port. Right now the only orders I am getting are through telagrams. How do I get unstuck? Please help
Hi there
I had the same problem as someone else - was completely stuck on getting San Francisco to unlock!
Drove myself batty for the longest time and so far this is what I've figured out:
You need to:
1. Coffee order for Hotel Tangiers
2. A Large Coffee Order in Cape Town - I think you have to click on either the shop or table mountain to do this.
3. Click on the Tower in Japan - the lady there will offer you two infusions if you complete her order
It was the third one which stumped me and finally unlocked Making Evangeline's Acquaintance for me.
Hope that helps!
[Edit: Spoiler tags added. -Pam]
Hi!I really need some help. I need to make an order that Alex asked me. It's making 25 of turffle and other chocolates. But i can't seem to have the recipe for Caribe Coffee...where in the world is it???I duble checked every recepies in my book, my creations but i can't find it.

LOL
Thanks for all help in advance, and for any help that has previously been given.
I had the ##### orders on a previous completed game and to avoid the frustration I redid the game completely under a new user name and once again after all tasks are now complete at master level, every single special order has the ##### in place of the item name to be delivered. Every order !! Apparently the bug never really leaves.
I had a few recipes that may be beneficial for you guys.
