Publix amazing Chocolate Obsession cake- just look at it!



Pictures say 1000 words here- this incredible decadant cake can be found for about $20 at Publix grocery store bakery counters. Its so gorgeous they even made a TV commercial for it! Inside is just as amazing- layers of rich choc cake with light fluffy frosting and all covered in that rich dark choc shiny ganache- its any chocophiles dream come true! Thanx Publix, worth every penny.

Holiday M&Ms- Valentine's Day & Winter holidays!!



Just gotta love all the variety of packaging for the holiday bags of M&Ms- the worlds greatest choco candy spares no expense in decorating their delightful bags, with large store chains (Target, Walmart) selling different versions of the same flavors. Here I put them all together so you can see the differences- oh & these are only about half the collection I have from many years! I LOVE it- the more the merrier! Enjoy....

NEW- 3 Musketeers Dark Choc Cherry and Truffle Crisp!!


These are 2 new versions of one of my favs- 3 Musketeers. The Cherry I think is only for Valentines day holiday candy, but hopefully longer- these are fabulous! Mellow fluffy cherry inside covered in a thin dark choc coating- its perfect for a quick minisnack- they are very low fat yet give you a sugar/choc hit. Their new Truffle Crisp bars are super tasty too- absolutly perfect for dipping in hot cocoa or coffee- the classic choco malt taste is awesome and that little crispy cookie and choc covering is delightful- 9 grams fat for both- not bad! Both highly recommended :)

NEW- Chocolate Cheerios!!


So even Cheerios could not resist the chocolate cereal craze! Lately all kinds of "healthy" cereals have been producing tasty chocolaty versions (see my older posts for Special K, Chex, Honey Bunches...) and heres Cheerios version- its good with light and dark shiny rings, and tastes slightly cocoa like, but it's just not sweet enough for me- I actually had to add sugar even tho I ate it in chocolate milk! But then again Im a sugar/sweet addict so Im not surprised. Overall definitly worth trying for chocophiles.....

NEW! Limited Edition Fudge Covered Ritz crackers!!


These are something really fun for the holidays- I found them at Sweetbay grocery. Havn't seen these at all in many years but I have a Chocolate covered Ritz box in my collection with no year on it- I think its from the 80's. I even wrote to Nabisco and they didnt know either! But the new ones are Fudge covered, its a thin layer and tastes great except needs a dash of salt- seems they brushed all the salt off to make these and its just a little too sweet to have much of the real Ritz flavor left. Still recommended, and great for gift giving!

NEW! Andes Creme de Menthe cookies for the holidays!


I grabbed these the second I saw them at Walgreens- they look so delicious! Then I also had the Cool Mint Oreos at home and did a little taste test- they are actually quite similar in taste. The Andes cookies have a very nice thick layer of chocolate and their signature green creamy mint all wrapped around a chocolate cookie. And the Oreos are Double Stuf so they have plenty of Cool Mint creme and that dark chocolate cookie too....I am quite thrilled with both and highly recommend both! Creme de Menthe would be an elegant gift too.....

NEW! Nestle Toll House Chocolate filled cookies!!


Oh my, these are decadent. This is any choco-lovers dream right here- Nestle choc chip cookies baked with chocolate or caramel filling inside! Its an ooey-gooey delight that is only made slightly better by rolling the dough in nuts too- cashews, peanuts, or almonds taste great. Also it helps to sprinkle a little salt on them before baking- they are just SO sweet it helps balance a little. Overall- amazing! Thanx Nestle! (and good job bouncing back from that recall....)
