I recently requested a sample of Chuao Chocolatier, Winter Hot Chocolate blend.
They threw in an extra treat, a bit of their Spicy Maya.
This dark chocolate bar (60% Cacao, 100% Delicious) did not set my mouth on fire but rather teased my senses.
The cayenne pepper and pasilla chile (called by some ‘the little raisin’ of chiles for its dark and wrinkled look) found in Chuao’s recipe must be responsible for it.
Getting back to the Hot Chocolate, it is nice and soothing, not as adventurous as Spicy Maya though which definitely beats the Spice Girls reunion hands down for excitement.
As for their New Year’s Resolution #1, Reward Yourself (my illustration for this piece) I am all for it…
