How is your baby? She is so cute! How old she? How much does she weigh? Does she sleep well at night? Everything is about Clementine these days. Not that I necessarily want to be asked how much I weigh or how old I am, but is it ever going to be about me again? How do I sleep at night? How cute am I? Oh well…
So while the center of attention takes her little nappies during the day, I try to get some me-time. And how do I do that? Either by also taking a nappy or by treating myself to something delicious. The other day I received a package of amazing chocolates from Sucré. My french is rocky at best, but I do know that sucré means sugar and where there is sugar there is pleasure.
I was sent the Sucré Seven Chocolate Bar Collection. Gift wrapped of course. A gift for myself, for being a great mama. The flavors sounded a bit more adventurous than my usual chocolate fare: Candied Violet, Coconut & Toasted Almond, Pistachio & Rose, Nibs & Brittle, Strawberry Amaretti Crunch, Sucré 65 and Salted Pretzel.
I immediately put Salted Pretzel aside for my hubs, who I know loves having chocolate and pretzel in his mouth at the same time. I was more curious about trying the Nibs & Brittle, which turns out is right up my alley with creamy milk chocolate, crunchy pecan brittle, and a hint of salt. Then I looked at the coconut almond bar and I knew I wasn’t going to like it, because who likes coconut?? But I have to admit, it is actually kinda good. It will not be my favorite, but the coconut flavor is so subtle that it doesn’t over power the dark flavor of the 65% chocolate.
Overall, I must say that I really enjoyed this little collection. My husband did too, although he wanted there to be way more pretzels in his Salted Pretzel Bar. “Looks more like somebody accidentally dropped some pretzel on this.” Oh well, he likes his pretzels…
For $39 I think the Seven Chocolate Bar Collection is a great gift for someone who wants more on his pallette than just simple chocolate. Sucré has much more to choose from as well, such as the gourmet king cake. Find out what Sucré does right here.
