Finding Chocolate & Peanut Butter on/near Long Beach Island - Part Deux

August 17th, 2008

Go ahead, call me immature for posting this photo. It looks like she’s analyzing some dog’s unhealthy excrement and it makes me giggle like a 10 year old boy. She’s really making some almond brittle and I had some - it was quite good. But more on treats from The Chocolate Fair in a minute…

Brb!

July 19th, 2008

Sad to say but it’s time for me to take a short little hiatus here at the Chocolate Peanut Butter Gallery. I will be away for a week and a half enjoying the sun somewhere in Michigan. I’m only bothering to write this by chance that I don’t have internet where I’m staying. If I […]

Fourth of July Chocolate Peanut Butter Fondue

July 4th, 2008

News Alert: The Chocolate Peanut Butter Gallery is taking a short break from Fancy Food Show Coverage in lieu of the holiday. Full coverage shall resume tomorrow!
Holidays are busy, it’s hot and there’s a pool calling my name. I don’t want to be slaving in the kitchen making some elaborate dessert and I’m sure you […]

Fancy Food Show, Part I: Askinosie Chocolate

July 2nd, 2008

Whew! The Fancy Food Show was fun and delicious but man am I tired! I took a couple days to relax but I’m back now to tell you all about it.
It was interesting walking around talking to various companies that produce chocolate and peanut butter products. They’d ask what I do and sometimes after explaining […]

The Fancy Food Show in NYC

June 29th, 2008

The above is not an official promo poster for The Fancy Food Show, just my interpretation. It sure feels like I died and went to chocolate peanut butter heaven, though. The Jacob Javits center was transformed into a seemingly endless gourmet market filled with booth upon booth of smiling people handing me delicious food. Really, […]

Food, Glorious Food

June 28th, 2008

Tastespotting is back up and running!
For those of you that are unfamiliar with Tastespotting, it is a collection of user submitted food photos that link to blogs and recipes. It’s updated constantly with amazing creations, so naturally the entire food blog community was experiencing some serious withdrawal when it disappeared due to legal issues.
So […]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Graduation Cupcakes

June 18th, 2008

There are lots of ideas for graduation party desserts floating around the web right now and I’ve especially been noticing a lot of cupcakes. People toil making fancy graduation caps out of fondant but for your average person, this is far too much work. Luckily I came across this incredibly easy decorating idea on flickr. […]

Mrs. Prindables Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Almond Caramel Apple

May 24th, 2008

Apples are healthy… right?
This one might not be since it’s coated in dark and milk chocolate, peanut butter, caramel and almonds. It’s 1.5 pounds and serves 8-10 people. They have a link on their site that displays the actual size of this freakishly large apple. But if you’re not in the mood to share, they […]

Midtown Manhattan Candy Store Tour

May 5th, 2008

Wow, have I got a lot of fun stuff to show you today!
I have lived in the NYC area for most of my life, but decided to pretend to be a tourist there for you this week. But not just any tourist… a candy shop tourist!
I was a bit early for work the other day […]

Mark your calendars

February 25th, 2008

There are other chocolate holidays besides Valentine’s Day?? Say what?!
There are actually many sweet holidays during the year (see full list after the break) that celebrate chocolate and peanut butter! But are these “holidays” made up? It seems that way considering there’s even the oddly specific “Bittersweet Chocolate with Almond” Day. However, according to the […]
