I am realizing that when it comes to chocolate, I am getting to be a purist...
I am getting Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate chips and placing them in a spoonful of peanut butter (which of course is ground peanuts with nothing added) or eating the chips along side a piece of candy cane for my own tasty treats... or just grabbing these tasty morsels out of the freezer and then popping them in my mouth for a taste of pure enjoyment
And yesterday, at work,someone brought in some dark chocolate truffles which were pure chocolate deliciousness...
And as I am eating only dark chocolate... I think of all the health benefits...
and indulge...
What kinds of chocolate do you crave?

I crave dark chocolate, especially those special dark ones! I also love mint chocolate, and white chocolate with almonds!

I like the dark chocolate and the mint chocolate too...
I must admit that sometimes I have wondered about white chocolate...
The question I always ask myself... Is it really chocolate?
It is too white and too sweet IMHO.
Yet it would taste good with almonds... as almonds are great.
Thanks for your response. I appreciate it.

You're welcome! Yes, I think white chocolate is too sweet, that's why I prefer it with almonds because it helps to neutralize the sweetness.

Yum... Dark chocolate... my favorite...
And yes, I really understand about how hard it is to stop eating it as it does taste so good that one wants to keep on eating it until it doesn't.

I like the Caramello when I am the mood for a real chocolate/caramel blalanced treat. I really like some of See's things such as their Strawberry cream, California Brittle, Chocolate Bordeoux, Apple Pie Truffle, Key Lime Truffle, Blueberry Truffle, Milk chocolate Butter,Obviously I have many lol. When I want a chocolate drink I usually get a Black Forrest from Coffee bean & Tea Leaf, and it is a coffe drink, but taste like chocolate covered cherries, Or I go to Starbucks for the regular Mocha, Then there is Seattles Best again a Mocha. Honestly I usually will go to Coffee bean before Seattles for one the black forrest is awesome, 2 they prices are a bit high more than starbucks.

Hi!
I love a bit of dark chocolate in the evenings... But my favourite and the one I crave is a little different.
Where I used to live there was a small chocolate shop that made Earl Grey Tea flavoured chocolate. It has a beautiful, subtle flavour.
I crave it more than ever at the moment as I have given up ALL chocoalte for Lent!

I am so sorry for coming up with this topic now when you are in the midst of craving...
I must admit that I had forgotten about Lent when I posted...
This is the first time that I have heard about a tea flavoured chocolate....
Does it have tea on the interior in a liquid form or is it pretty well mixed in to the whole of the chocolate...
Is it in a bar or drop form?
Now you have me very curious and wondering...
Thanks for your response.

The tea flavour is through the chocolate, and it comes in bars. Although I did once have it as a single chocolate witha soft truffle centre. That was good too. If you ever see some, you should try it!

HI! I really like the dark chocolate with hazelnuts and also the milk-chocolate. these both are my favorite ones, and I eat them almost every week! And it is also good for stimulating my brain activity. I love to eat it before my exams!

I am addicted to chocolates especially FRUIT AND NUTS from CADBURYS and Dates covered with chocolates.I cant resist or wait when i get a pack of chocolate.Chocolates are no doubt good in taste ,gives a feeling of pleasure too .I`ve heard chocolates contain serotonin that acts as an anti depressent.
In recent studies i came to know that chocolates do not impact upon cholestrol but that doesnt means that that you can munch a whole bar daily but you can have a small bite of a piece daily.
I also think of all health benefits and enjoy a bar but calories alert stops me !!

I love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. There's also some sort of chocolate from Whole Foods that I love, but I don't remember the name. All I know is that it's Belgian and it's creamy. I also really love Milka bars. Peanut Butter M&Ms are quite good, too. Generally I just love milk chocolate.

I typically love chocolate and caramel together so I love cadbury's caramello. Godiva's caramel and choclate combinations. MM. I love chocolate and pretty much like milk chocolate in any form without nuts of course. I like the gourmet chocolates but they get to be expensive so I like my regular bars Milky Way, Kit Kat, 100 grand etc. mmmm.
