Okay I have to admit, I love when my mom gets chocolates. She's always been so generous and she shares them with everyone. Funny, I eat 1/2 a pound of chocolate, but I put on 2 pounds. I wish someone with a physics phD could explain that one. Wasn't there something about the law of conservation ? Anyway, my belly seems to ignore physics. Like the universe, it is always expanding. Probably why she shares them, but she's quick to set aside the ones she is going to savor
That being said, moms savor chocolate. If this year roses seem tiresome, you can either go chocolate or combine the wonder aromas of the flowers and the sweet taste of the chocolate.
As with roses, there are so many choices in chocolate. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, heavy chocolate, light chocolate and the options continue.
The king of the chocolate world has to be the truffles. Without a doubt, the look of satisfaction abounds when someone begins to savor the rich chocolate flavor of a truffle.
Again the selection is large. The type of chocolate on the outside can be just about anything and the chocolate and/or cream middle can just about anything imaginable.
If you want to go with a chocolate this year, consider this the year of the TRUFFLE !!
