#a104 :: Chocolat Michel Cluizel, Paris

ENLARGEMy wife’s boss brought these back from Cannes – a tightly-boxed array of wicked little chocolates.

Put aside, visit web pour une seconde, the drug-nerve reaction that ordinarily would have you gobble these down with all the brainless gluttony usually reserved for chugging-Hershey’s-kisses-until-the- growing- pile- of- foil- wrappers- threatens- to- interfere- with- the- wi-fi …

These demand to be tasted carefully.

The Palet Framboise immerses your palate in a surge of delicate raspberry-tinged dark cocoa.

The Delice‘s almond/hazlenut praline tosses your tongue back and forth between your teeth, hunting through a wash of airy nougat for little flecks of caramelized nuts.

The Bahia, a coffee ganache, firmly hoists the roof of your skull off – in the most elegant and graceful way imaginable, bien sur.

I need to stop now. Before I plow my way through the box in search of more flavors to describe.
