Vosges Amalfi Bar

by Hannah on May 18, 2012

It may have taken me over a year, but I’ve almost finished reviewing the squillion Vosges chocolates that my brother brought back for me from America. (You can find all of the previous reviews here.) In fact, after today’s review, I’ll only have the Cherry Rooibos bar left. It’s been a hard slog, I’ll tell [...]

Over the course of my chocolate obsession blogging, I’ve been lucky enough to taste chocolate from all over the world. Today, however, marks the first time I’ve reviewed chocolate from the Middle East, courtesy of my lovely friend Robyn of Girl On Raw. As for the second part of this Chocolatepalooza, well, I’ve reviewed Fremantle [...]

Mast Brothers Chocolate + Cocoa Nibs

by Hannah on May 6, 2012

It always feels right to me that Mast Brothers Chocolate has the name that it does, for almost every Mast Brothers Chocolate bar that I’ve tried and reviewed has come to me courtesy of my spectacular brother, E.TeacherLord (excuse me for a moment: ain’t no thang; add a drop of lavender to your milk, leave [...]

After a grey, cold, and rainy week spent cooped up in my office chasing seemingly endless deadlines (did I knock out a 19-page Issues Paper in one working day on a subject area I hadn’t worked in before? Yeah I did), Canberra gave me a gorgeous sunny weekend to enjoy. I caught up with one [...]

Moonstruck Dark Chocolate Chile Variado

by Hannah on April 18, 2012

Thank you so much for your poetry recommendations following my discombobulated post about Pablo Neruda (and haircuts and dragon cake). You’ve led me to not only new heartsong poems to whisper through, but also poets to look up when I’m next feeling mopeypants. I wish I could thank you by giving you chocolate. Alas, the [...]

It feels remiss of me to have let Easter pass without talking about chocolate, but then again I’ve never been very good at scheduling my blog to reflect holidays in a timely manner. I’m the kind of person who tells you my ideas for Christmas treats in January, after all. Also, chocolate is an every-gorgeous-day [...]

Mast Brothers Chocolate with Black Truffles

by Hannah on April 2, 2012

The first thing you must know is that I ate this chocolate all wrong. I should have eaten it draped across a chaise longue, Cleopatra-style, jewels in my hair, languidly picking up perfect squares from a mother-of-pearl plate. Or perhaps I could’ve eaten this chocolate in a penthouse in Paris, gazing down at the silver-glimmering-writhing [...]

I’m typing this at the Canberra Airport, looking out the window at a yellow-grey opaque and invisible world cloaked in fog, waiting to hear whether my second flight to Sydney has also been cancelled*. What better time to bust out the next Chocolatepalooza post? * It was. Alprose Deluxe Dark Chocolate with Dark Praline My [...]

Do you remember that, last November, my work held its conference and I started to tell you about it? And then forgot to write Part Three? (I might one day. Perhaps.) Well, at the end of that conference I was generously given a box of Haigh’s Assorted Truffles. It’s been waiting in my slowly-diminishing pile [...]

It was an absolute thrill to hear your thoughts on love (and love at first sight) in my last post. While I’m always up for zesty debates and letting others’ viewpoints show the world in a new light, I must admit it was balm to my heart to find an echo, or even a mirror, [...]
