Nine words for you:
Hersheys Extra Dark Chocolate with Cranberries, Blueberries, and Almonds.
oooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.................:D
That sounds almost "good for you" - with the antioxidants and what-not...
(I do have a weakness for for Peet's chocolate covered blueberries - mmm - and I'm not really much of a sweet-eater)
Mmmm...I had those when they first got to my old town, very nummy!
I mean! Hersheys! How could it be so good? :confused: Yet it is! :D Anti-oxidants! Two servings of fruit! Almonds are high fiber! The perfect food! :p And if you caught my whine, I mean thread, about wanting salt, not sweet, you know that I generally prefer Fritos to Hersheys. But oh, my goodness. This is fab-u-lous.
For once, a chocolate that doesn't appeal. I do not like to mix fruit with chocolate.
Not even chocolate covered raisins??? Or how about strawberries dipped in chocolate? Heaven!
More for us! More for us! :DQuote:

Lise, when you pass thru SLC, I'll need to take you to my place of employment. I hand dip chocolates for a living. :D
(The business doesn't have a website as we can hardly keep up with local demand, but here is a little info on the operation; scroll down to "Hatch Family Chocolates", or read this article, which recently appeared in the local paper. Shameful plug, I know!)
And you will be bringing samples to LRRH? :rolleyes:Quote:

Strawberried dipped in chocolate port wine syrup is the best thing this side of Heaven to me. Hmmmmmmmm
Oh My Goodness! I need a new career! Then again, my current career is what's bringing me to SLC, where I'll get to sample the fruits of your labors!Quote:

Yellow is my new best friend.
I will try...they most likely will be available at Casa Yellow after the ride as fine chocolate must be kept at the proper temperature, you know. We make only small batches and there aren't many rejects (aka "samples"). I'll see what I can do! ;)Quote:

The carmel at the shop, which we make there from scratch, is the best I've ever tasted.
Oh, and also available: both dried and fresh blueberry clusters, dried cranberry clusters, fresh dipped strawberries, and fresh raspberry clusters. It's a pretty decadent place. Good thing I don't like chocolate all that much!
Um, is there any way to bring a wee bit home in a cooler (say on a plane)? Snapdragen, you may need to negotiate with Jo, as she's your nearest TE LRRH participant. Better come up with a good plan.;)
A sense a field trip in the works for MIL.

Ach! I see I have some educatin' to do. No refrigerator. Too much moisture. Those flying would be better off just taking a box in their carry on. Just make sure you put it in an overhead very far away from your seat so you aren't too tempted!Quote:

Actually the best way to air-transport chocolate is in the cargo. It is cold up high in the sky, you see.
Only problem is that you might get a little "bloom" on the choc. (Bloom is the technical term for that white film on the surface)
But if you stuff as many as you can into a thermos -flask you would avoid the temp changes as you take off and land (or crash) and no bloom.
wha...huh....did someone say something.....hello, I must have gone into euphoria land thinking of dark chocolate dipped fudge......
!!! DARK CHOCOLATE DIPPED FUDGE !!!
Please stop... you all are making me HUNGRY!!!!!!!
but.......
DARK CHOCOLATE DIPPED FUDGE!!!!
Oh gosh, dark chocolate fudge. You had me at "dark chocolate." :o :p
I know the fridge is bad but having tried to carry speciality chocolates home before during the summer, a cooler is better than a melted gob of expensive goo and the cooler doesn't have to have ice in it, just the insulation helps. And we have a long drive home (not that any would make it past Tooele).Quote:

Is it safe to assume you might have something of a hankering for yellow's DARK CHOCOLATE DIPPED FUDGE ?
just a guess of course
Uh, Kim, by any chance could I talk you into side trip on Friday afternoon after we pick up the rental car in SLC ?? :D
I'll just need to figure out how not to eat it all before I bring it home :rolleyes:
We're thinking FIELD TRIP!!!!! I think my MIL would like to go.
I was afraid I was too subtle.....:o

Everybody sing! :p
WOW! I never had so many friends when I was just a regular ol', plain ol' urban planner. In fact I think I had enemies just based on my job title!
Oh, I forgot to mention that if you like nuts in your fudge, there is also a dark chocolate dipped walnut fudge version.
You could transport in a cooler with ice if you want...up to you. I'm just saying that if you want it to be pristine-ish, it should be transported lovingly on your lap with the AC on (in the car) or in your carry on baggage (on the plane).
I'm saving up rejects for the post ride bru ha-ha at Casa Yellow after LRRH. Mr. Yellow wasn't happy when I told him that container was off limits. :p But I brought him a less than perfect carmel-and-chocolate-dipped pretzel last night, so he was appeased for that moment, anyhow.
Nutz! Dark Chocolate Dipped Fudge With Walnuts!!!!! Nutz! Nutz! I love Nutz!:rolleyes:
duely noted :rolleyes:
Ah, you thinking about driving west for 12 hours into the sun in the middle of summer? The sun is on our laps. Even stops for gas will drive up the temperature. :eek: This is usually when I let Mr. "I like to drive" go for it and I crawl into the back seat.Quote:
