craftyhunnypie Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I've had a lovely prezzie today from a business associate. Hubby has had a bottle of Tawny Port & I have had a nice box of Xmas chocolates from Hotel Chocolat! Mmmmmmm Very drool worthy. I shall have to ration myself to one a day. I have just looked them up on the website ( I know this is naughty ). They are £27. Hubby hasn't got over the fact that a box of chocs can cost £27. He also says " Oooo they're not yer avarage box of Dairybox"! Don't you just love them? I am rather thrilled with my very 'special' prezzie.

Seagazer Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I love Hotel Chocolat choccies. My DD usually gets me a box for mothers day, they are treats to savour. The family are lucky if they ever get to have one of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Those are my favourites apart from Artisan du Chocolat. Both heavenly very expensive brands. Once you've tried them, even the big purple one from Quality Street pales in comparison! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 why is my mouth watering.... Yum they sound lovely!, what a fantastic and generous gift, £27 though! no chocolate in my opinion should be £27 I just wouldn't get my moneys worth I inhale chocolate rather than saviour it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I get Hotel Chocolat stuff for my BIL for Christmas, and as a special treat for us. Too expensive most of the year, but it is delicious, and all fair trade. They put a great deal of effort into helping chocolate farmers in developing countries. What a lovely present to get. Something to really savour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 my last employer gave us all one of these one year. it was fab! A big wooden box with all sort of choccie treats. Things you dip into coffee with choccie on them, slabs of chocolate, chocolate drops, chocolate box type chocolates, drinking chocolate and other choccie treats. It was gobsmacking! http://www.hotelchocolat.co.uk/Limited-Edition-Christmas-Tray-P350063/ It was similar to this but with different contents, took me months to use it all up!
