I reviewed there Nola Chocolate collection that came in a 21 piece box. After unwrapping the brown bow i anxiously opened the box to find twenty one hand crafted chocolates that looked just as delightful as they tasted. After admiring them for a while i decided to try one. The first one that i grabbed was called Chicory. It really grabbed my attention because it is covered in gold flakes. As i bit down i noticed the smooth dark chocolate ganache paired with the flavor of coffee. This one is by far a coffee lovers dream! Secondly i tried a Mueniere which had gold hints to it and a pretty design. It offers brown butter folded into white chocolate ganache, coated in dark chocolate This one was by far my favorite chocolate. Next i tried the Blange which really intrigued me due to it's rich swirls of white and yellow colors. I found this flavor to be very unique from the rest. It was covered in white chocolate and tasted of banana with a light hint of rum. It was very unusual but at the same time very intriguing. Next i tried the Magnolia. It was topped with a pecan and tasted of dark chocolate with heavenly pecan ganache. Last but not least i bit into an Avery chocolate. It tasted of Carmel milk chocolate ganache wrapped in dark chocolate topped off with a touch of salt.
