CMN - Food Philosophy #64

Food Philosophy #64: Chocolate Holiday Treats

We are in the thick of the holiday season, so if you're like me you probably cringe at the idea of going to the mall. Fear not! Online gift options abound, and I found a few gems from our friends at Lillie Belle Farms and Saxon Chocolates that are oh-so-perfect for the decadent gift-giver (even if the recipient is you). From smoky blue cheese truffles to enrobed chocolate treats that call for disrobing, you can stay right at home and let the beauty of the internet make your holiday season a calm one.

Listen to see how to make truffles for yourself at home. Thanks for listening.

CPN - A Guy A Girl and a Bottle #36

A Guy A Girl and a Bottle #36:

In today’s podcast we deviate from wine once again, and visited Ariella Toeman at Cocoa Designs. Actually, the pairing of wine and chocolate has been a constant favorite of many, although some claim that not all chocolate pairs well with wine, but in our opinion just like our attitude towards wine, if you like it then go ahead and do it anyway.

Ariella was born in Brazil, raised in Montreal, and is a professional pastry chef who has worked in France, New York, and her former hometown of Montreal. It wasn’t until she met her husband and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area where she came up with the idea for Cocoa Designs. Her first product, Cocoa Nuts, just like all her other products are all hand made in her one woman commercial kitchen in Burlingame, CA. These little hand made addictive nuts are praline almonds dipped in Venezuelan chocolate covered in cocoa powder and spices.
