Dark and Elements Selection - Chocolate Tasting Club

by MuminBusiness

Another two selections from the chocolate tasting club - the dark and elements selection.

The Chocolate Tasting Club is a novel idea of getting luxurious chocolate from hotel chocolat into the homes of people all over the UK.

It is available in a range of delicious selections and each selection comes with a range of chocolate that can be eaten one a day or all at once, depending on your sickness tolerance.

This is chocolate at its best.

Dark Selection

  • Cherry Bakewell – There are pink and purple stripes all over this chocolate.  On the inside of this dark chocolate delight is a ganache with amaretto (sweet, almond flavoured, Italian Liqueur) and cherry brandy.   It looks and tastes lovely.
  • Warming Walnut – Walnut, caramel and cognac blended into milk chocolate, covered in dark chocolate with white lines all over.
  • Chocolate brownie – A milk chocolate square finishes off this chocolate which is made of thick dark chocolate with hazelnut and pecan praline and cocoa crispies on the inside.
  • Irish coffee – Chocolate, coffee and whisky in this dark chocolate delight.  It will warm you up.  This comes in the classic selection as well.

  • Blackberry and Pear – A dark chocolate shell, finished off with green and purple drizzles. Containing a cream ganache with blackberry and pear juice and a dash of pear liqueur.
     
  • Mellow Moment – A ganache of milk chocolate, cream and a cream liqueur in a dark chocolate shell. 
  • Café Caramel Sensation – This was suggested by a member of the chocolate tasting club.  It consists of a dark chocolate cup with a two layered ‘drink’.  The first layer is made of a coffee ganache flavoured by a drop of Tia Maria and the second is salted caramel (an interesting combination).  The froth on this ‘cup’ is white chocolate sprinkled with cocoa powder. 
  • Heart of Kirsch – A heart shaped chocolate.  On the top of this dark chocolate shell is a red heart and then inside the shell is a cream coloured ganache filled with Kirsch – a cherry brandy that comes from the German word for cherry water (Kirschwasser). 
  • Congo dark tasting batons – Pure Dark chocolate sticks 
  • Indian Summer – Amaretto and coffee liqueur with a splash of vodka made into a ganache that is then encased in chocolate. 
  • Griotte Deluxe – A chocolate also present in the classic selection.   It has a cherry soaked in amaretto right in the centre of the amaretto ganache, all coated in a dark chocolate. 
  • Rhubarb Truffle – Another one that is present in the classic box. 
  • Amaretto amaretti – amaretto liqueur and Arabica coffee with some amaretti biscuit encased in chocolate. 
  • Dizzy – Hazelnut praline covered in 70% dark chocolate.

The dark selection is a delight of a box from the Chocolate Tasting Club.

This details the chocolates of the Elements collection.

The Elements Collection is for anyone who loves chocolate but would prefer it without any alcohol.
