Like most people, I like finding cute novelties that involve my favorite things. This chocolate pie chart from Mary and Matt definitely fits that bill!
The 5.5 ounce pie chart is divided up into three different sections: a 70% milk chocolate, 20% dark chocolate, and 10% white chocolate. I’m not sure what the significance of each section means — maybe the percentage of people who prefer the dark, milk and white? It’s also packaged up in a cute, simple white box that doesn’t make you guess what’s inside!
This would make a great gift for a statistics nut heading to college …read more
It’s National Milk Chocolate Day

A lot of people like to say they “don’t need a reason to celebrate” something, aaaaaand I’m no exception! Especially when it comes to these fun “faux” holidays, and especially when it comes to a fun faux holiday that’s all about chocolate!
National Milk Chocolate Day, oddly enough, doesn’t seem to have much background info attached with it. Some speculate it was created by chocolate confectioners, and others say it’s a reason for the 65% of the US population who prefer milk chocolate to proudly display their love for their yummiest weakness!
Regardless of why the holiday exists, I say we all …read more

I seem to be on a s’mores kick lately. Maybe it’s the time of year, what with camping and cooler nights, etc.
Anyway, the above video shows how to make chocolate fondue s’mores with milk chocolate, marshmallow cream, and graham cracker crumbs. Yum!

I know it’s not really the time of year for hot chocolate, but the recipe for this one intrigued me and I wanted to share.
Rob, owner and chocolatier of Kingsbury Chocolates in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia shares his recipe for lavendar hot chocolate (complete with chopped pistachios on top!). I like that you can use any kind of milk, from whole to soy, and anything from dark chocolate to white chocolate!
Limited Edition Snickers Charged

I’ve been looking for these everywhere and finally found a box last week!
Snickers Charged is a limited edition 1.83oz bar that includes 60 milligrams of caffeine as well as taurine and B-vitamins in addition to the milk chocolate, peanuts, caramel and nougat of a regular bar.
The packaging, which I assume is supposed to portray power and energy, is silver with a charging rhino. My first impression was that it was leaning a little too much toward a power bar look, something I’m not interested in, so it didn’t appeal to me much at all. If it weren’t for …read more

Chocolate and Amazon – My Kind of Heaven

Did you know Amazon has an entire Gourmet Chocolate section in their grocery area? Somehow, I didn’t either. Imagine ordering a box of chocolate (or three) and a couple of books at the same time and having them all delivered right to your doorstep. That’s my idea of heaven.
They’ve got chocolate assortments, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate. And of course now is the perfect time to check out what they have for Valentine’s Day. No See’s (nobody’s perfect) but they do carry some of my new favorite, Emily’s Chocolates.
