These eggs are EGG-STRA Special March 25 2016

With Easter this weekend, I’ve got one thing on my mind… EGGS! Specifically I’ve been daydreaming about our Hazelnut Praline Quails Egg Crate and Superior Sea Gull “Fleur de Sel’ Salted Caramel Egg Crate.  These delicious eggs were created by Rococo Chocolates for the Easter Holiday but became so popular they are now part of their selection available year round.  One bite and you’ll agree we cannot limit the enjoyment of these eggs to this time of the year. You’ll find them in our marketplace year round as well!

Praline Quail Egg Crate

These eggs are so realistic you’ll need to remind your friends they are the chocolate ones, not the ones you boil!  A creamy hazelnut praline center is coated with milk chocolate and wrapped with a candy shell.  The shell is painted to look identical to a real quail egg.  The packaging in the crate makes the perfect gift!

 Superior Sea Gull “Fleur de Sel’ Salted Caramel Egg Crate

These eggs are filled with a delicious and gooey Sea Salt Caramel. With just the right amount of salt added to the sweetness it is hard not to eat the entire crate.  These Sea Gull eggs make the perfect gift for anyone living near the coast.  They will be enjoyed by adults and children alike!

I hope everyone celebrating Easter has their share of delicious chocolate eggs and the hardboiled ones as well!

Happy Friday,

Julie


A Trip Across the Atlantic August 07 2015

I am getting settled back in to the Eastern Time Zone after travelling to London and the UK for a week.  It was the perfect time to take this trip as it was super HOT in New York before I left and it is never really hot in London or England for that matter.  It definitely made me appreciate the British summer with temperatures in the 60’s and the sun shining bright.

The trip was mostly for fun as I haven’t been back to London since I lived there. Even after 18 months, I was still able to find my way around and I still remembered the pin code for my bank card!   One of the highlights of my trip was a visit to Rococo Chocolates. I was able to visit their shops in Marylebone and in Belgravia(where I used to work).  The chocolate business is generally slower in the summer because who wants chocolate melting all over their hands, right? Rococo has come up with a brilliant alternative for the summer months, Rococo Chocolates flavored Ice Creams!!!!!  I shared a Milk Chocolate Sea Salt with my son and it was amazing. He was literally licking the container.

We decided to take a break from the hustle and bustle of London and rented a car to drive out to the British Countryside. It is not such an easy feat to drive on the left side of the road and sit on the right side of the car.  We survived and even stopped at Stonehenge as we made our way to the beautiful beaches of Weymouth.  Our last day of the trip was spent in London catching up with lots of old friends. 

It was great to be away but it is even better to be back. We have a lot of great new products coming to the marketplace at Julie’s Beet and I cannot wait to share them all with you.

Happy Friday,

Julie
