Marcel loves extreme chocolate our
9 / 5 Montiversary is coming up tomorrow........

I hope these came out okay - my experience makes me want to get in more practice to perfect it.

Orange Chile (with Cocoa-Cayenne coating)

Lavender Vanilla (with Lavender-Lemon powdered sugar coating)

Morel Cherry - Ling Hing (with Carob & Li Hing powder coating) 

Clove Ginger (with Cocoa-Cardamom coating)

(my scoop was a little too big - that's a lot of chocolate in one sitting - a 1 ounce would have been better I think)

I got this box to put them in at Earth Trading Company


I left out the Morel Cherry-Li Hing from the box because I added too much Morel Cherries - and they are too soft.  I'm going to dip them in chocolate and save them for another time.

Montiversary - I've not heard that term. What does it mean?

What a yummy gift - I'll take any clover ginger left overs :)

oops - I forgot the "h". It's what you celebrate each month until the first year when you can start doing Anniversaries :-) (p.s - I made it up).... :p

You're spoiling him.

Do you think it's too much?

You must really love your hubby to make him these. I hope he shares!

On second thought, these are really inspiring AND motivating. Were they hard to make? Do you know of any good online instructions? (I've not had good luck with online instructions lately when it comes to food.)

The spicing and combinations sounds so yummy. I love spice and chocolate.

But I've never heard of Li Hing...
