I Miss U all my Blog

After much gazing and drooling... Over the Flickr chocolate photos of Princess_of_llyr of Christopher Norman Chocolates

I hopped on the 5 and made it downtown to see for myself...

Well, really I was looking for painting material/ "reasearch"as usual /comme habitude...

A pretty well-lite shop at 60 New Street in the Financial District.

With an enticing counter you could spend hours contemplating...

"Australian Baby Ginger"!

Whatever that is sounds good to me :)

Their specialty are unique hand painted "mosaic" chocolates in many flavors - lemon thyme, orange caramel, Green Tea, Framboise, Pomegranate etc.

There are lots of Valentine hearts bien sur - petit fours...

Hand painted hearts in all sizes - big and bite size..

And their special "Tiger Heart Box"- "a passionate collection of hand made chocolates and truffles" with white chocolate, caramel, cherries, espresso, cinnamon caradmom, passion fruit, gianduja - all melt in your mouth on contact!

The Christopher Norman chocolate factory is right behind the shop, so every thing is "fresh off the presses"..

The only way to get better at painting chocolate (not exactly a piece of cake as I've mentioned in the past) is to keep on painting chocolate. This entails some hazards and Little Bear is here to help out. He may even get a chance to come to Paris for further required chocolate research.
THANKS Little Bear! And THANKS princess_of_llyr

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE!!!
