Chocolate Mania
Today's the last day to vote for the Death by Chocolate contest? Have you voted? If not, please conside clicking on the button above to cast your vote! The contest closes at 12 noon PST today so hurry!
It's been an exhaustingly busy week for me, and I haven't had a chance to make a Valentine's Day dessert yet...but I think I know what I'll be making! In the meantime, here are some of my other chocolate-y themed desserts that I considered entering in the contest, and that you might consider making for someone special:) Have a good weekend!











Oh my god, those look so lush. I will definately take down some of those recipes.
Happy New Year by the way.

Hi,
Love your posting on Tastespotting of the little cupcake - sweet & pretty! I know what you mean about Valentine's Day and to think it is next week. I have not done anything as well.

Like you I am a professional PASTRY CHEF (I was educated at Peter Kump's School in Brooklyn, NY).
Because I am a PASTRY CHEF I simply adore your cupcakes of love. I am going to make them for "Big Bear" (his picture is on my website) because Valentine's Day and our anniversary are so close, Big Bear and I celebrate our VALIVERSARY!
Our anniversary is celebrated on the day that he first let me . . . well, you know (that's why he drooled on his shirt in the photograph).
HEY! Thanks for the idea. I know "Big Bear" will be drooling again soon.

Hi all,
Thanks so much for enjoying the choco-overload!
Rachel,
Cream means heavy whipping cream (or double cream, depending on your part of the world).
