Today was Day #3 of Chocolate and Tout Sweetener Theme Week, and today's sweetener comes from Canadian maple trees -- in the form of maple sugar and maple syrup. I picked up these maple leaf shaped chocolates from Canada True/Heart Industries at the Montreal airport coming home from Canada recently.

The first box held a combination of white and milk chocolates with sweet, maple cream fillings. And since I believe I'd sampled these creams before in 2008, I opened the the second box -- that contained smooth-style milk chocolates sweetened with pure maple syrup.

Happy National Milk Chocolate Day to all.
