Hi chocolate lovers...!!

All about chocolates!!

Chocolate has long been associated with passion and love. Its Latin name, Theobroma, means “food of the Gods.” There are many events that go into the history of chocolate and for chocolate fans, the journey gets all the more exciting with each advanced chocolate version. Since centuries, chocolate has been welcomed with smiles.From the first bitter drink to a refined version of chocolate, the world of chocolate lovers has many chapters to reveal and amuse itself. However, chocolate by any name tastes just as delicious and rich as the name goes…

Chocolate truffles....Truffles are simple, elegant candies that let the true flavor of good-quality chocolate shine. Traditionally, these are formed into small balls and rolled in cocoa powder, giving them a rustic look reminiscent of their fungal namesakes. These can also be dipped in chocolate or formed in candy molds for a more finished look. Over all available truffles, I go for chocolate malt,caramel,dark chocolate,black forest and hazel nut melt away truffles.

Chocolate fudge recipes....Fudge is a popular candy with seemingly endless variations. Fudge recipes vary widely, but most call for chocolate, sugar, butter, and milk or cream. Other common additives include marshmallow fluff, flavored extracts, and chopped nuts.

Chocolate Fruit Candies ....Chocolate and fruit are a natural combination. Fresh fruit is divine when dipped in chocolate, and dried fruit can add a great texture and flavor boost to all manner of chocolate candies. This is what I can say about chocolate fruit candy. and yeah, here comes my favourite...

Chocolate Nuts....Because sometimes you feel like a nut! Nuts are a great addition to chocolate fudge, truffles, bark, and more. There is an easy way to add a slightly savory taste and crunchy texture to smooth, rich chocolate. I generally love Belgian chocolate nuts.

Now, here is a good news for all dark chocolate lovers. Cadbury India Ltd. recently announced the launch of CADBURY BOURNVILLE FINE DARK CHOCOLATE, the first dark chocolate product from the much-loved Cadbury India basket. Made from the finest ingredients, each individually presented CADBURY BOURNVILLE FINE DARK CHOCOLATE is an irresistible in-the-mouth delight specially created to savour the Indian palate. And with 44% cocoa from the world’s finest Ghana beans and an ever so smooth texture, each little chunk is dark and undeniably good.A natural source of anti-oxidants, CADBURY BOUNRVILLE FINE DARK CHOCOLATE just makes us feel good about giving in to our chocolate cravings. Dark Chocolate acts as a mood-booster and is loved by because of its rich taste and intrinsic health.

According to me...Nothing can be compared to the experience of tasting a delectable bar of chocolate. And "Nine out of ten people like chocolate. The tenth person always lies..." :) :) . And I also believe that Chocolate does not mean "food of the Gods" and rather it is "God of the foods...!!" because of its delightful and yummy taste.
