The delicious taste of hand made chocolates. Does it get any better? As a self confessed chocoholic who grew up in a town with a chocolate factory I’ve eaten more than my fair share of this delectable treat. On any given day in my home town one could smell the sugary aroma of Cadbury Caramel Bars as they were made, or the scent of the chocolate and fondant as Crème Eggs were born. Could anything be better than that? Yes it could. The hand made offerings at Chocolates for Good go beyond the mere ordinary, and transport you into the realm of the sublime. Lovingly crafted one by one, these sweet treats show us what chocolate should taste like. Rich and complex, with a flavor profile that you only get from the finest cacao, these chocolates go beyond anything you can get from a ‘big box’ chocolatier. The Caramels, my favorite, which come in either milk or dark, are to die for. Sweet and sticky, full of flavor, with just the right amount of chocolate, they are the perfect marriage of shell and filling. Bite into one and your taste buds reward you with a symphony of flavor that, like a finely tuned orchestra, allows you to savor the individual notes, while pulling it all together into a bite so satisfying you can’t help but reach for another. The Milk Chocolate Orange Peel Bar melds the flavors of creamy milk chocolate, and candied orange peel, in a taste that will satisfy even the pickiest of candy addicts, while the decadent Cacao Nibs leave you unable to stop nibbling. While the selection of fine chocolates at Chocolates for Good may not be kind to your waist line(what chocolate is?) they certainly make your soul sing, and prove that chocolate can be a heavenly experience. Get some today, because tomorrow I might have eaten them all.

Chocolates for good have fantastic handmade chocolates in a variety of flavors. But there are two things they make in particular that I have become addicted to because they are just that amazing. They have a toffee which is like a sheet of toffee broken into chunks and it’s coated with rich, creamy chocolate on both sides and dusted with sea salt I believe. This toffee is not your run of the mill toffee. It is melt-in-you-mouth, buttery, rich, sweet perfection. Whenever I get a bag of this, I intend to have one little piece a day. Until I have a little piece and remember just how amazing it is! 3 days later I’m sporting a sadly empty bag, lol! The other thing they make that blows my mind is a pistachio brittle. YES, PISTACHIO! Oh my sweet perfection! This stuff is amazing and I have never found pistachio brittle by any other company. If you like nuts, then you will love this stuff. Other items of note are the caramels which are incredibly rich and again totally melt in your mouth. One of those is all I can handle because they are that rich, and I love sweets. They also have these huge, thick chocolate bars in various flavors like fruit & nut, orange peel(or something like that), espresso bean and pecan I think it was… anyway, I’ve tried the Fruit & Nut and the pecan with both milk and dark chocolate and they are amazing. This stuff is good quality chocolate and is packaged beautifully. You can tell that care was put into the making of it by the taste and look of everything I have ever bought from them. I like to give these as gifts to people in the office and also use them as stocking stuffers for the family. If you love sweets, do yourself a favor and try these, they are worth the calories!
