Zingerman’s Original Zzang Bar Review

August 6th, 2008

Zzang!! Go ahead, say it - it’s fun… ZZANG!!
The Original ZZANG is one tasty chocolate bar.
I posted the description yesterday but here it is again:
“Made by hand at Zingerman’s Bakehouse, Charlie Frank uses the best ingredients you can pronounce. Starting with a honey nougat made with natural peanut butter, Charlie rolls it up in […]

Necco Sky Bar Review

July 18th, 2008

The Sky Bar is a pretty chocolate bar. The design of the bar’s shape is very Art Deco, which makes sense since this bar debuted in the 1930s. According to Necco’s website, it was first announced to the public by means of a dramatic skywriting advertising campaign. Fun! It was the only candy bar to […]

Fancy Food Show, Part III: Dale and Thomas Popsters

July 8th, 2008

This is one of the few photos from the Fancy Food Show that actually came out clear. I’m a fan of Dale and Thomas’s products and not just because they’re from my state (NJ - represent!). They make some really fun, creative products, at least a couple of which contain both chocolate and peanut butter. […]

Marie Belle 4-Piece Blue & Brown Box of Truffles

June 24th, 2008

Before we get on with the post, incase you’re confused - yes, the title reads “4-Piece” but the box only has 3 truffles in it. I admit it… I have no self control and couldn’t wait until after the photos were taken to dig in. Could you? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
Marie Belle was one […]

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. […]

80’s Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Commercials

June 17th, 2008

Searching for chocolate and peanut butter on YouTube provides a fun trip down memory lane. Some of these Reese’s commercials I remember and some I don’t, but they all give you a warm and fuzzy feeling and help you recall just how wonderfully corny the 80s were. Here are a few for you to enjoy:
Nibbler

See’s Candies Review: Peanut Butter Patties & P-Nut Crunch

May 20th, 2008

It seems really unfair to review the chocolates I got at See’s Candies after reviewing what appears to be the crowned glory of peanut butter filled chocolate, the Vosges Peanut Butter Bonbon, but such is life.
These were a gift from my taste tester who visited one of See’s locations in Phoenix, Arizona. See’s markets itself […]

Chocolate & Vanilla Buttercream Icings

May 19th, 2008

Okay, so I’ve been craving cupcakes a bit lately. So sue me!
Here’s the second cupcake recipe in a row that I’m posting, but I can’t help it. I love em. And I was going over to my mom’s for a big Sunday dinner, so of course I had to bring something sweet along! Because it […]

Peanut Butter Cheese Cake Minis

May 18th, 2008

Did you ever think you’d be able to find any Paula Deen recipe that only had HALF of ONE stick of butter? Well, here’s a shocker, I found a DESSERT of hers that only has that little in it. Kinda crazy. Kinda freaks me out actually, but these sound great none the less and a […]

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 […]
