Chocolate truffles, original watercolor, 5" x 7"

Yesterday I stopped in at the Soho boutique, Vosges Haut Chocolat for a look around on 132 Spring Street...

I had to paint this arresting poster at the entrance...

The shop is quite grand...

Chandeliers, marble counters, all in keeping with their elegant chocolates...

Hot chocolate or espresso too...

A customer came in and requested a "hatbox" full of chocolates...oh my

Vosges Haut Chocolat (that's pronounced vo-oh-cho-co-la) is especially famous for their wildly exotic flavors...

Their range of bars is vast: Chilli, bacon(!), mushroom (?), peanut butter

and the full range of cocoa percentages

I reccomment you get a whole library of bars for careful perusal and serious tastings...

They sent me this batch of bars (all sans chillis). I've been instantly converted to their "Deep Milk" Chocolate.

I can assure you I am NOT having chocolates for breakfast today as I write this post!

Absolutely NOT non non non..

BON CHOCOLAT!
