Here's another suggestion, dip strawberries. <BR/><BR/>At Life by Chocolate, www.lifebychocolates.com, (NB the plural), we advocate the Chocolate Ritual (reverb). Take a bath in chocolate, we also make and sell chocolate bath products, candles, and lotion, and while in the bath, eat some Amano chocolate.<BR/><BR/>Of course, normally, we recommend our own, read my, confections but in this case, enjoy. I'm going to post my own experience with this artisan chocolate. I like those guys.Mark by Chocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04665003177388089336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670775069452488961.post-92002693863579587682008-08-04T15:58:00.000-07:002008-08-04T15:58:00.000-07:00To mark by chocolate~Wow, thank you for this detai...To mark by chocolate~<BR/>Wow, thank you for this detailed information,<BR/>I'll definitely "treat" my precious chocolate well and make the best use out of it!food makes me happyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17108934546108132401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670775069452488961.post-43359994109976310222008-08-03T18:09:00.000-07:002008-08-03T18:09:00.000-07:00I'm impressed. Amano is great chocolate. Kim and I...I'm impressed. Amano is great chocolate. Kim and I saw them at the Fancy Food Show in NYC. I didn't take any pics this year.<BR/><BR/>Amano is good but expensive. They have not figured out their wholesale strategy yet. They are very expensive. More expensive than, Felchlin, El Rey, Dagoba, Scharffen-Berger, Valhrona, E. Guittard, Republica del Cacao, and other, better or as good chocolate. That includes Taza. We love Taza though we don't use it.<BR/><BR/>For heaven's sake, don't bake with this beautiful chocolate. You'll destroy it. Use Callebeaux, or some other lesser chocolate for baking. Make confections. Make chocolates. Eat it with Ice Cream. Make a great hot chocolate. But no baking.<BR/><BR/>I would use Amano, translation, by hand, if they were not so expensive. It's good chocolate and I want to see people support their efforts.<BR/><BR/>I'll review Amano eventually. I've reviewed many other chocolates on my blog. They just sent me a sample. <BR/><BR/>Free is a great price. You lucky.Mark by Chocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04665003177388089336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670775069452488961.post-52350659545054124262008-05-09T17:55:00.000-07:002008-05-09T17:55:00.000-07:00To Tigerfish~Oh yeah!To Tigerfish~<BR/>Oh yeah!food makes me happyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17108934546108132401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670775069452488961.post-75579890067278813822008-05-09T02:28:00.000-07:002008-05-09T02:28:00.000-07:00Lucky gal!Lucky gal!tigerfishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575213806359208350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670775069452488961.post-69193347655196504692008-05-08T08:24:00.000-07:002008-05-08T08:24:00.000-07:00To Mochachocolata Rita~Haha I guess I'll just munc...To Mochachocolata Rita~<BR/>Haha I guess I'll just munch them down as the way they are,<BR/>By the way,<BR/>I've been so stressed out from work these days, if I get some free time, I'll definitely enter your cook out party!<BR/><BR/>To Peko Peko~<BR/>Haha only for the first chocolate!food makes me happyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17108934546108132401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670775069452488961.post-46099195142544105522008-05-07T21:19:00.000-07:002008-05-07T21:19:00.000-07:00That sounds like some mighty fine chocolate!
