As a real chocolate afficionados, Feteafete.com blogger Tami & I go way back in debating the differences (pluses and minuses) of various chocolates– until we come to Rechiutti. When recently up in San Francisco *(posts and photos to come), I made a huge pit-stop at that store to take a look at the offerings and saw everything Tami talked about in her Mother’s Day blog post about Rechiutti .
Tres a bit expensive… and particularly on shipping ( order $100 and get FREE shipping. Really a good bargain there!) but worth EVERY PENNY of it for these bits and bits of chocolate and candy gems.
Here’s what Tami had to say (this is an excerpt– so hit her blog)
Fruit Pates
Or…. if she’s more of a fruit kinda gal, the delectable Pâtes de Fruits offer a superb fruity burst from each gelée. The gorgeous and colorful squares come in seasonal flavors (Morello Cherry, Passion Fruit, Blueberry, Cassis, Apricot, and Pear-Lime). Très elegant to look at and to nibble on. I love the cassis
I had some of these: yummy and worth every single nibble.
Dragee Hazelnuts
The new Dragée line is so tempting I had to lock them up in a special hidden drawer. Otherwise it’d serve as my breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The Burnt Caramel Hazelnuts are whole pieces of toasted hazelnuts coated in milk chocolate and a thin layer of burnt caramel. To. Die. For. The burnt caramel gets me each time…If you love peanut butter, then the super hypnotic Peanut Butter Pearls are for you. Organic peanut butter and dark milk chocolate surround a crispy center. The two playful creamy/crispy textures stimulate the senses as you munch on them for that much-needed afternoon snack break.
I bought the mix of the Peanut Butter Pearls, Burnt Caramel Hazelnuts, Burnt Caramel Almonds and (here’s my weakness) Burnt Caramel Cherries. Heavenly and really hard to stop dipping into. So buyer beware (buy 2 .. they are affordable)
