Godiva chocolate Truffle Coffee and Biscuits

Biscuits and Tea are a pair. But Chocoalate and Coffee? In Celebrating the Third Place, Ray Oldenburg says, " I had no trouble envisioning people sitting at small cafe tables drinking tea and eating biscuits.." I know a friend who enjoys chocolate bar with his coffee. There must be something to this chocolate stamped biscuits and chocolate truffle coffee. Let the person you gift it to, find out what it is.

Crunchy chocolate

Dark Chocolate with Almond and Blueberry At first I thought I was holding a thick bar of chocolate, turned out to be two of them. The bar is thin which makes it easy to feel the pop like crunch of it.

Dark Chocolate Alohamacs

Chocolate on sale is making me quiet the lady who fills up her fridge with chocolate that she wants to share. A week or so ago, it was chocolate covered cranberry and now its the Alohamacs. A site reads that it has 14 pieces in the box, of which I didnt stop at one but two. The dark chocolate delivers on its promise and the nuts are Kona too. 

Pejoy Biscuit stick

We usually keep trying different brands and flavours of Pirouette. They make for very good snacks and look cool too with their long, rolled shape. I have never heard of Pocky before which looks like a sparkler firework. The pejoy sticks are very interesting with their cross look of a pretzel stick but with a pirouette's soul. Lots of options, you can play pick up sticks with them, if you want to earn your pejoy and eat it too. There is a malt craze going on with Arnott's Tim Tam and the pejoy stick. The Dansk brand white chocolate pirouette are thinner than usual, but this pejoy takes it way further with the thinness of the stick and still keeps the joy of finding chocolate inside. I will try if it can do the Tim Tam Slam challenge of working like a straw. They dont make you feel heavy, and the running man logo on the pack is sure to remind you, what next to do, should you overdo the snacks like it happens with crunchy, chocolaty things in life. Some packets have more broken...

Arnotts Tim Tam

As kids, biscuits were treat but cream biscuits like Bourbon with its cream in between and white crystals of sugar on the chocolaty brown cookie top was a super treat. Now everybody knows, how kids eat those cream biscuits. Split them into two and savour the cream in between. With Tim Tam's you dont have have to split and choose which side to start with.. no matter how you slice it, there's chocolate all over.. seems like a solution of mathematical problem.. but first things first.. you cant escape the chocolate and its not for the faint of heart.. who are happy with a hint of chocolate like in wafers. Personally its too sweet for me, I would stop with half, but the texture of soft chocolate and crumbly cookie.. is bound to rake up memories like the Madeleine did to Proust Review based on Complimentary product from bzzagent

Chocolate Lava Cake

Chocolate lava cakes Its amazing how fresh grocery list comes up, while you are an hour away from finalising the meal for the guests. 1 tbsp less of butter when you need a whole stick. Regular sugar has to do in place of powdered sugar. Hey, the fridge has both kinds of chocolate. Thats enough of a win. The cakes didnt set even after extra 5 min in the oven. But the guests recognised the as lava cakes and the gooey chocolate on the crumbled cakes didnt lose their taste one bit. When you dont want to go wrong with dessert, say "Chocolate".

Dorina

Had Dorina Chocolate with puffed rice set in it. A bit sweet. This puffed rice is very different from the one I know.  It has full body unlike the Indian one which is very light and hollow.

Bananko

It smells and tastes very banana. the good thing is that like banana dipped in chocolate, tis wont stick to the floor if you leave it out half eaten. The yellow stuffing has a marshmallowy texture. I have never had Peeps but have a feeling that it might be so.

Mints

I had chocoloate dipped  Altoids . This is one case where I dont mind mint in chocolate. I misread it as chocolate flavored. If you have tins lying around, some  ways to reuse an altoids tin . Recently I had some diamond shaped mints. Its a semi-hard candy. Porous in some places. I am not a fan of hard candy but this mint met me half way.
