It’s my favorite day of the year! Later tonight, I’ll be handing out toddler-size chocolate bars to excited kids and sullen teens, so why not wrap up a fun week on the blog with my very first giveaway? For you, like some sort of half-assed Oprah, I’ve got some bars of Theo chocolate, fresh from the factory, and some of my favorites from the Northwest Chocolate Festival: Dandelion small-batch single-origin chocolate bars from Belize and Madagascar (You know how when you go to wine-tastings and some dude with his nose in the air swirls his glass and says he can taste piquant cherries, verdant summer, children’s laughter, and a hint of impudent squirrel, and all you taste is fucking wine? This is like that except you actually CAN taste the different notes. Amazing!), burnt sugar salted caramel sauce from Hot Cakes that made me weak in the knees, and some of the best toffee I’ve ever eaten from Holm Made Toffee (they make several amazing flavors and I almost included red pepper or lavender but decided to go with a classic instead).
All of this stuff has been paid for by me, is not sponsored or affiliated in any way, and is being given away for the joy of giving and also to maybe spread the word about the blog a bit. If no one enters, my game plan involves eating all of it in one sitting while crying, which sounds delicious except for the crying part so it’s really a win-win.
Happy Halloween!
I will do a lot of things for chocolate, including leaving blog comments trying to win said chocolate. Basically just send me chocolate. Also, toffee is my favorite chocolate delivery method.
It’s mine, too. And this toffee is flipping perfect.
Hmmm… tough call, but I think I’d be most excited about trying the toffee.
Now that I think about it I’m not sure if I commented previously this week on any of the chocolate content, but I have been enjoying it!
I’m glad you’ve been enjoying it! 🙂
Burnt sugar salted caramel sauce?? I am so in!
It is AMAZING. I’ve been putting a bit in my lattes and it takes them to the next level!
It took me a while to realize Dandelion is a brand name and not a flavor.
:/
Ha! I had some dandelion root burdock beverage I found at Metropolitan Market and I wholeheartedly do NOT recommend it.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again — I am caramel’s BITCH! So, clearly, the burnt sugar salted caramel sauce is my jam!
I feel like I should get that printed on some business cards: Mellzah, Caramel’s Bitch. 😉
Signal Boosting shall commence!
Thanks! 🙂
Caaaramel. Sea salt could be good, or coconut curry too. I dunno about the chai thing though, it’s too close to cinnamon for me. Spices hurt my mouth because my mouth is a giant wuss.
The chai is gentle, it’s not as in-your-face as you might think. Good luck! 🙂
Burnt sugar salted caramel. NOM.
It’s good on (just about) everything or straight from the jar. Good luck! 🙂
I just found out I am no longer allergic to chocolate! Pick me, I need to make up for lost time!!
Best news ever? Probably close. Good luck! 🙂
I’m most excited to try the Holm Made Himalayan Sea Salt Toffee (just can’t resist toffee…), but they all look amazing!
It’s super awesome, I think you’ll like it! Good luck! 🙂
