Wedding Favors are a touchy subject to me. I really don't enjoy most tshatshkes (little trinkets) placed so lovingly by my plate. I feel obligated to take it home even though it isn't my taste and I hate little things like that cluttering up my home. Today I found something different and you can give me one of these any day. I found them on www.leweddingfavor.com.

Here are a few of their items:

The BEST Chocolate Wedding Favors!

OK not only are they the best wedding favors, I have to say this company makes some of the best chocolate period. I have an expertise that allows me to say this. I am the granddaughter of a talented Greek candy maker. I was eating hand dipped chocolates with my baby food. A visit to his store was like a scene from Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I was the kid who ate so much I blew up.
So that being my "street cred", I was introduced to Vosges Haut-Chocolat at a wedding I attended at Lake Tahoe. These truffles were the favors for each guest at the table. I had to eat one before the night was over. When that morsel from heaven entered my mouth, I knew I had to learn more about the complex flavors I had never tasted in chocolate before. This truffle combined ancho chillies, Ceylon cinnamon and dark chocolate to form a truly unique and enchanting experience. And the Aztec truffle is just one of the sensory collections of flavors from around the world expressed in these fine chocolates.
Why am I telling you about this now? They are available for purchase here in the valley at the Inspiration Lounge at Inspirador.

Lucky Lucky Us! And Santa, if you are reading this, I can explain.
