Jelina Chocolatier – Espresso

Last year at the Sweets and Snacks Expo, I picked up two chocolate bars from Jelina Chocolatier, a Canadian chocolate company that was looking for a U.S. distributor. I loved those two bars and gave them high marks?and kept hoping they’d make their way to the U.S. market.?Unfortunately, they’re still looking for a U.S. distributor,…

See’s Assorted Chocolates Week 2 – Day 1

Back in 2009, I devoted a whole week to See’s Chocolates as I reviewed an assorted box that they sent me. This week will be another week of See’s Chocolates reviews, only this time, I’ll be reviewing a box that I bought and picked out myself in Seattle. Today, I’ll go through the four Truffles…

They’re not something that I would’ve picked out myself, as I’ve been off caffeine for years and thus have no need for energy candies. There was something slightly alarming about the warning on the package, “Not for minors and pregnant women.” But coffee marshmallows…

Cemoi Atelier des Gourmets

I bought this box of Cemoi L’Atelier des Gourmets at Whole Foods. They were half off in a post-winter holiday sale. There were four different chocolates in the box, each with their own hoity-toity name: Kheops, Evasion, Arabica, and Coupelle. Kheops was described as, “crunchy gianduja and whole almond.” It came in a pretty flat-topped…
