The Blogs Are Buzzing!

Have you seen us?  Emily's Chocolates is everywhere and we couldn't be more excited.  We want to take a moment and share some of the kind words that the highly respected food bloggers are are saying about your favorite candies!


The Chocolate Priestess just reviewed several of our chocolate covered delights including out Chocolate Covered Cherries: "Once more the fruit scent is dominant when the bag opens but quickly fades for the individual pieces. The bite is chewy, and the sour cherry taste works forth with each chew to blend nicely with the bitterness of the chocolate."   Stop by her blog "The Chocolate Cult" and let her know how much you love those cherries too!


We were even on TV!  How cool is that?  The Party Goddess brought some of our delicious chocolates along with her to KGO-TV’s (ABC San Francisco) "View From The Bay" for her Spring Bash on a Budget segment.  We are so excited she chose to share our products but not surprised, Emily's Chocolates are bite sized luxury at a price everyone can sink their teeth into.


Sandra could not wait to try our chocolate covered delights so what was going to be her airplane treat became her packing treat as she described on BlogChocolate.com.  She especially loved the Milk Chocolate Cocoa Dusted Pecan Halves saying: "These dusty morsels were spectacular. They were not too sweet and the texture was brilliant and they tasted elegant and fabulous and every other excessive descriptor you can think of."  Now that is a complement!  Have you tried these yet?


Deborah Dowd raved about our Dark Chocolate Covered Cranberry Almond, Milk Chocolate Cocoa Dusted Pecan Halves, Dark Chocolate Covered Cherry Hazelnut, and Milk Chocolate Covered Graham Cracker, in her blog Play-With-Food. Once her family discovered them "with so many fans, Emily's Chocolates did not hang around very long."


This Girl Tastes says about our Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberries:
"The strawberry is a perfect compliment to the dark chocolate, and the balance is great. Even though it’s a dried strawberry, it still tastes fresh and juicy to me. What can I say? I really loved these."

Seattle Bon Vivant gives great advise regarding out Dark Chocolate Covered Fortune Cookies when he says:

"So buy a few boxes for loved ones, serve them in a bowl with dessert and Port at your next dinner party or share a box with a friend, neighbor or co-worker. But whatever you do, stash a few away. They are quite addictive."

 

Kim S. recommends out Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberries on ThisNext.com:

Jamie was very clear about how she feels about our Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberries on the Candy Addict blog in saying: 

"To put it quite simply: these babies are gooooood."

 

Sylvie Shirazi at Sugar Savvy had out Dark Chocolate Covered Cherries and recommends them to everyone!:

"As you can probably tell, I truly enjoyed these simple but delicious chocolates, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reason to celebrate National Candy Month, or just any old day."

 

When Rosa at ZOMG, Candy tasted out Mint Sandwich Cookies she loved them so much she "bumped today’s news story to share this review."  

 

Jamie over at Candy Addict tried our Chocolate Covered Fortune Cookies and we are so happy to hear that not only did they enjoy eating the cookies, they enjoyed the packaging as well!

"...a well-packaged, well-made, delicious box of candy always delivers the message that whoever receives it is somebody special."
