ANY CHOCOLATE, Leo. But I favor the dark. I hope the Dutchie shows up with a photo of chocolate sprinkles the way they really should be, not the plastic like things that pass for chocolate sprinkles.

I like dark chocolate best when it's covering caramel and pecans.

Scharffen Berger semi-sweet, 62% cacao.........I also like to mix their bitter-sweet
chocolate, 70& cacao w/ their milk chocolate, a killer combination.

Wish I could say strong dark chocolate was my favorite because it sounds so elegant - I've tried to like it but find it too bitter. It must be for the more refined palates out there.

As for chocolate body paint - what a good idea for the kiddos when they want to fingerpaint! (told you romance was gone in my life!)

I like milk chocolate more than dark chocolate and the only chocolate I like is Neuhaus. Incredible chocolate and after having Neuhaus, chocolate like Godiva is like the redheaded stepchild.

Oh yeah that place is to die for! I totally forgot about them. My mom is coming to NYC for Mother's Day so I will take her there to get some chocolate (Also so I can get some as well!). Thanks for pointing them out!
