On the Importance of Good Chocolate

Aphrodisiac For Her


Today, I’d like to give a shout-out to a chocolatier of indeterminable size – DB Infusion Chocolates, which is located here in my fair city. This particular chocolatier has impressed not one, but three choco-lovers in my life recently, and I’m scheduling a trip back when the wintry special, that flavor of snowflakes — Peppermint – debuts. (That and I am recording a particular promise to pick up drinking chocolate here as a “Thank You” to that most excellent of writers AND hostesses with the mostesses, Lili Saint Crow, forevermore. :-p)


Hands down, at the moment my favorite chocolate of choice is the fall seasonal Cider Caramel. Is it messy? Ab-so-lutely. It has a fantastic complex of flavors founded upon that unlikely of textures, that surprising first floor – a dash of vinegar. Clearly, this is a lesson learned: take the sweet with the sour.


When was the last time you spoiled yourself? Hrmmm? Challenge thine tastebuds, be it chocolate or vanilla, dear readers. – YOU DESERVE IT.


Mood: Must worship the gods of chocolate.
