Why should you share it was a "gift" to you!!!! I hope you enjoyed every bit of it. it wasn't really a gift - well, it was a supplier's gift to my firm & my boss set them aside for me....i know, i'm so easily bought off well, i thought i should share (okay, only after i felt bloated following gorging of box of choclate-covered almonds) with my equally chocholic friends cuz i like to pretend i'm a selfless, sharing kind of person.....ah, the pointlessness of self-delusion..... but i still got the tablets & hot choc (probably put bailey's in it....mmmm) to share! & yeah, the gift box is a special valentine's product..... expensive choc is so much more enjoyable when it's free! hehe.... peace

Vosges is so expensive! But when I was pregnant...even though I hated chocolate candy I still craved hot chocolate. I'd go to Vosges on my lunch and spend almost $5.00 ...or was it more...? on a small hot cocoa.
Yummy.
To tell you the truth, I've tried Vosges candies....really good. Too good. But I'm still slummin'. I still prefer my Hershey bar. Must be something wrong with my tastebuds!!!!

whatever compelled my sister to buy a whole packet of chocolate with nerds embedded in it is beyond me. and who ever came up with the concept must have had a retarded sense of taste. but the new milo colocate bars are quite good.

I've been craving Kinder Eggs for a while now since we don't have them in the States.
The right amount of chocolate AND a toy. The simple road to happiness. Granted, sometimes the toy is crap, but I've gotten a few cool ones. They seriously need to start importing that stuff over here in bulk.

Wow - that's insane. I don't think I could survive without all that milk chocolaty goodness and the rush of adrenaline I get from the surprise of the toy. Kinder Eggs are like staple chocolate here in Canada. The toys have been getting progressively cheap these days though. When I was I kid, I remember getting Looney Toons and Flintstones characters inside 'em. Now all I get are toy flowers or cheap anthropomorphic insects and crocodiles.

Milo.. New? The ones I had in Singapore had 2 bars in one pack, is that the new one?

The other night had some Godiva chocolates and well it was CRAP! I had a strawberry sparkler piece and it was poprocks in the center! Cheap tricks. I could buy this at a corner liquor store anywhere in the country. My girlfriend who is part Dutch went with the chocolates from her country and it was proper chocolate. Real strawberry fillings and really good.

^ Something weirder are Cadbury Easter Cream Eggs. The commericals show an egg being cut in half and it looks like an "egg yolk" in the middle. Visually, its nasty looking and the grocery stores here have started selling them (easter is approaching!!!!). Bleh.... but moving on to good chocolate I really like Butterfinger Crisp. Not regular Butterfinger 'cause it tastes like sawdust, but the wafers and chocolate are a good combo. Yum Yum!

^ Cadbury Easter Cream Eggs are really good. Before I actually tried one I thought it would be gross but the inside tastes like frosting, they're really addicting.
