white chocolate

It’s not every day you eat a chocolate that was brought all the way to Australia from Finland, especially for you. It’s not every day you eat a chocolate that leads to the words “squoodgy!” and “goopy!” appearing in your tasting notes (yes, the exclamation marks were included). It’s not every day you eat a [...]

(Courtesy of my mum’s old camera, complete with strange light settings.) In a perfect world, baked goods would cancel out heartache. More specifically, a batch of white chocolate and macadamia blondies would make panicky feelings disappear, and you’d be able to go to sleep at night feeling sure that your gorgeous, dear, kind, pure-and-sweet-as-coconut-buttercream-frosting friend [...]

Bovetti White Chocolate with Violet Sugar

by Hannah on January 15, 2011

I can’t help but love the honesty of the following chocolate (or, to be more specific, of its name). Bovetti doesn’t try to trick us by proclaiming that its white chocolate is flavoured with violet. Oh no. Bovetti is keepin’ it real by telling the world, on the back of its packaging, that it uses [...]

Back when I mentioned my $50 Cadbury prize haul, I hinted that I might have a go at writing one or more of my Cadbury chocolate reviews in poetry form. After all, it worked fairly well when I used limericks to associate Plamil chocolate with getting high, right? Maria voted for the first review to be done entirely in [...]

I’ve been remiss. I’ve held back from you. Not intentionally, I promise. But I have held back. You see, months ago I showed you two of my personalised, customised chocolates from Chocomize, the American chocolate company that lets you pick your own chocolate flavour combinations. I showed you my magical mystery milk [...]

Although my horrific treatment of raspberries in yesterday’s post might beg to differ, I truly love the little ruby fellas. I remember fondly my visit to Boston in 2008, during which time I ate entire punnets of raspberries every day, for five days straight. They were only $2.50 apiece. Here in Canberra? We’re lucky to get in-season [...]

Some days, I’m all about the thrill of the new. Sure, most of the chocolates in my post-travel stash are technically new, seeing as I haven’t opened them, but they’ve been in my company for so long that they feel familiar. Imagine you work at a coffee shop patronised by regular customers. Then imagine it’s a [...]

In keeping with this, I have a huge backlog of chocolates to review yet absolutely cannot wait to post about the deliciousness of [one of] last night’s chocolates.  Vestri Girone dei Golosi – Bianco Pistacchi: White Chocolate Bar with [...]
