My granddaughter is bright, bubbly, tall, slender, beautiful… and a chocoholic! Everyday she requests a chocolate croissant and chocolate ice cream! When we go to the store she routinely asks for a piece of chocolate candy. So what is it about chocolate that even a three year old finds it so enticing?

Well, the list can go on and on. It’s moist, sweet, yummy, invigorating, ….  A zillion scientific studies have been done attempting to answer this question, but the only conclusion that I can come to is that it is personal. My granddaughter, the expert, has her favorites, and here they are:

Divine Milk Chocolate Bar – Made with the finest cocoa, smooth cocoa butter and real vanilla, giving it a distinctive creamy flavor. Divine is the only fair trade chocolate company which is owned by its cocoa farmers.

Large Gold Foiled Milk Chocolate Coins – Known as “gelt” in our house.

Godiva Chocolatier Gold Ballotin (8 pc.) – Also makes a pretty gift.

M&M Milk Chocolate Candy – Can’t go wrong with M&Ms!

Hershey’s Kisses, Milk Chocolate – An old favorite.

Ghirardelli Chocolate Squares – These are creamy and individually wrapped for a quick treat.

Give them a try and enjoy!
