Love-Chocolate

Recently for my birthday I got Japanese Chocolate Flavored Bubble Gum and I just had to blog about it.

I received both chocolate and white chocolate. It is packaged like a candy bar only thinner. The packaging is very eye pleasing and it made me excited to try it just by looking at it.

The Bubble Gum isn't exactly the taste a an average American chocolate candy bar, but close to the taste of Japanese chocolate. It has very few calories compared to the serving size so if you watch your calories it shouldn't disrupt your daily diet.

For people who love to chew gum (like me) this gum is a good choice. It makes huge bubbles, chews easily and doesn't make your mouth sour.

Have fun chewing gum and chocolate at the same time!

Located in Hagerstown, Indiana, is a quaint chocolate shop by the name of Abbott's. My particular favorites are the Dark Chocolate Caramels, the Peanut Clusters, and the Dark Chocolate Breakups. Abbott's has been in business since the 1890's and they know their chocolate. As a Benefit to Allergies, Abbott's already packaged candy has a printed label with their store information and an ingredients list. There is no need to worry about the candy being on the shelf for a long extensive amount of time because they keep their chocolate fresh. So if you happen to be near Hagerstown IN I encourage you to stop by. Have fun eating chocolate! Alyssa B.

In the heart of old downtown cities there are fabulous restaurants, farmers markets and quaint chocolate shops. Once you walk inside you have the sensation of smelling sweet scents of chocolaty goodness. One chocolate shop I tend to go is The Golden Turtle Chocolate Factory located in downtown Lebanon, Ohio. It is packed full of boxed chocolates of all shapes, sizes and flavours. Whether you want a chocolate car or a chocolate covered marshmallows, they have it all. Or if you go towards the food cases, there is an array of specialty chocolates. I enjoy their chocolate because it is so creamy. It pretty much melts in your mouth! One of my all time favorites is the chocolate covered pretzels: Most small town chocolate shops have better tasting chocolate than the name brand chocolate sold in normal grocery stores.

This afternoon I had some Russian chocolate by the name of "Tbapdeuckuu." Unless I didn't read the labeling right. I have never been fond about Russian chocolate but I believe this was one of my worst. I found it to be disgusting. First time I tasted it, it was ok, the second time I tasted it I hated it and the last time I couldn't bear to continue any longer with that horrifying taste in my mouth. I had to give to to dad to finish for me. All of the times I have had Russian chocolate I have found a certain peculiar taste in my mouth after words. Sort of nutty, almost fruity to me but yet at the same time I tasted something else. If you are a fan of Russian chocolate then a good place to find some is either in small local Russian and European stores or the internet. Have fun eating chocolate!
