Chocolate Ecstasy
Good chocolate is one of my great loves. Another of my great loves, Daniella, just sent me a generous gift from Kansas City, where she has been taking art classes and attending a Surface Design conference. When we were in KC in September, we found Christopher Elbow chocolates, a tiny shop tucked away in the back of a furniture store, as I remember it. We were stunned! The artistry of these fine sweets is in the combined beauty of each piece as a work of art to look at, as well as a taste sensation to eat! It is hard to disturb the artistry by eating the first piece, and equally hard to decide where to begin to choose. After much consideration I began with Orange Blossom Honey, shaped like a little beehive. It was superb! The promises for the days ahead are phenomenal. Where would you begin??

Caramel Fleur del sel, of course!
Rosemary caramel. Sounds like a delicious combination. What a lovely sweet gift!
oh, the Pinot Caramel for sure! Then the Venezuelan Spice....these are some of the most beautiful chocolates I have ever seen! Lucky you.
Wild strawberry with lemon!
Way to go, Daniella!
My o my--and before lunch, too.
