If there’s one thing you can trust my word on, it’s chocolate. I love chocolate. I don’t remember the last time I went a full 24 hours without consuming chocolate in some form. If it’s not in solid form, I’m drinking a hot chocolate. I can’t get enough of it, ever.
When I’ve traveled to Europe, half of my suitcase was filled with chocolates when I came back. It was one of my favourite parts of traveling, because the chocolates there are so delicious and not like anything I’ve had here.
Until I discovered Colleen’s Chocolates.
Colleen’s Chocolates is an Edmonton-based chocolate company, and I feel so blessed that we have this local company here in Edmonton. I had high hopes for these chocolates to be good, but I didn’t know just how good they would be. I wanted a proper sample of different flavours, and I wanted to see the different sizes, so I got quite the variety!
I ordered the Strawberry & Biscuits, Salted Caramelized Chocolate & Biscuits, and Coffee in the small size.
I got the dark chocolate Coffee in the medium size.
And I got the Cookies & Cream in the large size because I’ve never had a cookies & cream chocolate that I didn’t like.
I think my favourite flavour was either the coffee ones or the salted caramelized chocolate & biscuits. Or maybe the strawberry & biscuits, because it was so refreshing. But then I also really liked cookies & cream because it was like an elevated version of a classic flavour. You know what? I just love them all.
These chocolates are so decadent and just melt in your mouth. They’re creamy and rich but without feeling too rich. You can tell they’re made with care because they taste high quality, and are on a different level than most chocolate manufacturers.
Seriously, just go order yourself some chocolates from here, but try not to blame me when you get addicted. I’m so glad I found Colleen’s Chocolates because now I can get my quality chocolate fix without having to wait for my next trip abroad. My only regret is that I didn’t order more.
Oh, and if you’re looking for something fun to do while social distancing, she’s doing virtual chocolate tastings!
Anyways, I’m going to go finish eating these chocolates now.
Until next time,
Nadine
