Sugar Savvy

What happened while I was in New York City?  I entered into ecstasy.  Not the city, itself, Jacques Torres Chocolate.

I walked by Jacques Torres Chocolate’s Manhattan store a couple of times before venturing inside. I knew I would be in trouble… wonderfully delicious trouble.  And I was right. The welcoming chocolate brown interior enveloped all the essences of the shop’s goodness. I loved that the friendly staff allowed me to peruse the store without pressure, available for questions if needed.

It didn’t take me long to gather an array of items to bring home. Chocolate Covered Cheerios, Hot Chocolate (Classic), Hot Fudge Sauce, and a beautiful chocolate brown box and orange ribbon filled with twelve exquisitely crafted truffles were all neatly placed in a bag and prepped for the journey home to Atlanta.

All the items made it home and to their recipients unscathed and uneaten, although it was extremely tough not to bust open that jar of fudge and dive in with my finger.  That wouldn’t have been very ladylike; fun and delicious, but not ladylike.

If you have not yet tried Jacques Torres Chocolate, you must.  The chocolate is a treat.  Stop into one of their stores as a patron of the cafe to sit and take pleasure in a cup of hot chocolate and a few rich and creamy truffles, or drop by to purchase items from the divine selection of truffles, chocolate covered treats, and sauces.  Are you unable to visit in person?  Visit virtually.  Jacques Torres Chocolate delivers!
