In 2006, my daughter bet I couldn't eat a different chocolate each day for a year. I enjoyed that year so much that, after 18+ years, I'm still eating a different chocolate every day. Happily, even after 6,600+ chocolates, there are still many more to try. Thank you to all who continue to be part of this global adventure.

ChocolateBet: September 3, 2009
Chocolate of the Day:
1 piece
The Chocolate Fetish
Ecstasy truffle line, Velvet Sin
Very Good - Very Good +
Weight: .848 oz. (24 grams)
Calories: ~ 127 calories in one piece (estimate)
Cost: $0 (gift) Thank you Ginger!
Purchased from: The Chocolate Fetish, in Asheville, North Carolina
This hearty truffle's ganache center was made with a blend of four dark chocolates. Last night I found this in a box (in my mailbox) from my friend Ginger who lives in the Atlanta, Georgia area. She stopped at The Chocolate Fetish during a recent trip. Given the recent hot temperatures in California, these arrived in good shape. But, just to make sure they were really OK, I had to eat the Ecstasy Ancient Pleasures chocolate truffle with cayenne last night as soon as I opened the box. (So, I'm not including this second truffle in today's entry, but will try to in the future, as it was very tasty.)
Note: the image of The Chocolate Fetish storefront above was scanned from a reprint of an article that ran in the February 2009 issue of Rapid River (Arts & Culture Magazine).
