ChocolateBet: March 15, 2009



Chocolate of the Day:

2 pieces
1.) Raspberry Praline (dark) (piano-shaped w/ wings stencil) - Good + - VG
2.) Le Feuille (milk) nougatine/toffee (thin, leaf-shaped) - Very Good
Weight: ~ 1.1 oz. (31.13 grams) for two pieces
Calories: ~ 165 calories for both pieces
Cost: ~$2.20 (guesstimate - I only have total $ for several items.)
Purchased from: Leonidas - Chocolate Cafe/store, in Pasadena, CA

The Leonidas Raspberry Praline is filled with a raspberry-flavored ganache, that looks like it may also contain a little white chocolate. Les Feuilles (the leaves) come in milk and dark flavors. I believe this one I tasted was the milk chocolate version; the thin center layer was a crispy toffee/nougatine with finely chopped nuts.
