I'm sure I told you all about the chocolates I was given for Christmas. I'm still working my way through them, but I have another sourcce of great chocolate to share with you.
We were shopping at Trader Joe's at the end of the year and were lined up to check out. My husband knows that I am addicted to all things raspberry. (Raspberry chocolates, raspberry filled cookies, raspberry sauce for cheesecake, raspberry jam, raspberry body paint....) Anyway, he saw a box of dark chocolate and raspberry. He asked if I wanted them, and I shrugged my agreement, thinking of the box of chocolates waiting for me at home.
Well...these are winners, and I don't mind sharing these. They are "Les Sarments" dark chocolate with raspberry flavour. They are made by Revillon Chocolatiers in France. They are twig shaped.. I don't drink coffee, but they would be excellent with a cup of coffee after dinner.
Those French sure know their chocolates!

I guess chocolates are one way to Buffy's heart! ;-)

I just needed to be shown what really good chocolate IS! I've been mostly indifferent to chocolate until I tasted the French chocolates!

Nice to know we share the same passions. I too LOVE plain (dark) chocolate and raspberries. Tried to Google these chocolates to see if they are sold over here and, guess what? Your post on them was 5th on the list.
