A very serious discussion about chocolate...

So, Whole foods has brought a new world of chocolate to my door and I'd like to share some of my finds with you:

1. Chocolate from Iceland is an amazing thing: http://www.snerra.is/enter.html?targ...tml&lang=en-us

2. Local Ohio chocolate makers RULE: http://search.cityguide.aol.com/colu...er/v-116485845

3. These are so good that it makes my mouth water: http://www.jobyandmartys.com/pearliesbags.php

Please feel free to add any chocolate sites that you've found and your favorite kinds... I love chocolate and I am willing to try anything.

Oh, and I was recently sent this: http://www.greenandblacks.com/uk/pro...27&cid=6&pid=8

From the UK, it was amazing!

I love chocolate. Stopped by at Picard Peanuts this weekend on the way to my mom's and not only do they sell peanuts, chip nuts, etc, but the most wonderful chocolate. They make the best peanut butter cups I have ever had, and I have had many different peanut butter cups.

YUM!

www.godiva.com is my favorite


They have a new dark chocolate ganache called Midnight Swirl. omg I could die happy eating those. MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Local favorite whose pecan flipovers are especially prized.

I like good ol' Hersheys, and also See's chocolate - http://www.sees.com/.

Does anyone remember Ice Cubes? Those were my alltime favourite, but I haven't seen them for a while. http://www.oldtimecandy.com/ice-cubes.htm - YUM!

Green and blacks chocolate is so gorgeous!!! The ice cream is to die for though. Ummmmmm. Just popping out to the shops...........

Well living only an hr away from Hershey Park...Hershey is the only way to go for me. Thats the only chocolate I will eat in the form of candy bars. Im picky about chocolate I even have Dave trained during that "special wk" to get me a giant bag of mixed Hersheys bars and ice cream snickers...That way he never has to worry about going to the store all the time just to get me chocolate...LOL...

Ice cream snickers bars are so good!!! Yum yum, I also send bf off to the shop to stock up on choccies too Bless them, hehehe

Has anyone forgotten about Tim Tams?????

Godiva!!!

Godiva Chocolate Martini (<--- for chocolate lovers who also want a buzzzz)

1 1/2 shots of Godiva Chocolate Liqueur
1 1/2 shots of Creme de Cacao
1/2 shot Stoli vodka (or something lesser if you have to)
2 1/2 shots of half-n-half (fat free half-n-half works lovely)

Mix it all up in a shaker with ice. Strain into a cocktail glass.

For extra chocolate kick; dip the moistened rim of the glass into a plate of cocoa mixed with sugar.

p.s. this is a great drink for before Auntie Flo arrives in town! Makes PMS go by so much easier...

I like the suggestion of the Godiva chocolate martini!! I'll save that one for the next girls night in! Thanks!

If it starts in Chocolate and ends with an "oooooooo" I'm there!!

Virtual chocolate does not make you fat (unless it forces you to buy real chocolate).

I think once I hit 30, just thinking of chocolate makes me fat.

mmm chocolate!

Now that I've read this thread I am going to the deli next door and buying myself a snickers bar... It's a goood thing BF doesn't work with me otherwise I'd be in bigggg trouble!!

But, I love all chocolate... Godiva is heavenly though
