GuyLian Artisanal Belgian Chocolate Giveaway

February 5, 2011 by Momstart 433 Comments

Guylian Artisanal Logo NewGuyLian Artisanal Belgian Chocolates are sweet chocolates available at TJMaxx, WalMart, QFC, Ross, Marshalls, Fred Meyer and Cost Plus. GuyLian Chocolates can also be found at Candy.com. GuyLian Belgian Chocolates sent me a large sampling of their chocolates to try and I shared them with my MOMS Club when they came over for the Free Flavor Friday Party. I was surprised to find that all of the packages I opened were empty!

I shouldn’t have been surprised, women love chocolate (I LOVE CHOCOLATE) and GuyLian is great chocolate. Even my husband who is not a huge chocolate fan like I am said, He likes Belgian Chocolates. The Chocolates from GuyLian are broken down into three basic forms. They sell the Guylian’s Temptations, No Sugar Added Bars and Praline Truffles. The  individually wrapped luxurious chocolate seashells are 100% pure, silky smooth milk, dark and white Belgian Chocolate and are filled with rich, decadent creamy chocolate praline truffle. 

Belgian Chocolates are indulgent chocolates with a rich sweetness to them. They melt in your mouth with satisfaction. I prefer a little more darkness to them, so I was quite happy that they sent me the dark chocolate varieties too. GuyLian Artisanal Belgian Chocolates are a great way to celebrate Valentine’s Day! Celebrate Valentine’s Day with an Artisanal Belgian Chocolates Giveaway.

Ghirardelli’s Newest Line Of Chocolate LUXE Chocolate Giveaway

October 16, 2010 by Momstart 233 Comments

Luxe-Milk-Logo_all-naturalGhirardelli is located in San Francisco California. Since we live on the West Coast, we’re close to Ghirardelli, I always thought that meant that we had quite a few different options when it came to Ghirardelli and their brand. However, when I was in LA, I went into a Ghirardelli store and I was blown away by all of the chocolate flavors. Oh how yummy! I was in a little heaven and choosing a chocolate bar for myself was quite difficult. I would have purchased a ton of chocolate but we were far away from our hotel walking the streets and it was a very hot day.

I’m a huge chocolate fan! If I could survive on chocolate alone I would. When I was pregnant all I wanted was chocolate. If I had to pick a favorite myself it would be dark chocolate. When m80 contacted me on behalf of Ghirardelli offered me the new LUXE Mile chocolate. I said yes because I had to try it.

Ghirardelli LUXE Milk is all natural and indulgent. My favorite flavor is the LUXE Milk Toffee, then LUXE Milk Almond and Hazelnut and milk. Oh yeah you better believe it. These are good and creamy! The 2.8 to 3 oz bars retail for approximately $1.99 – $2.39 and the LUXE MILK bags retail for approximately $3.49.  They are available at Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Borders, Cost Plus, Blockbuster and other participating retailers.

 

New Flavor Line Up:

LUXE-MILK-Bar-IN-LINE· LUXE MILK Almond – Toasted almonds contribute a clean, crisp taste to

complement and enhance the flavors of the creamy-sweet milk chocolate

base.

· LUXE MILK – This bar delivers the ultimate premium milk chocolate

experience – pure, all-natural milk chocolate with a velvety texture that

melts smoothly in your mouth.

· LUXE MILK Hazelnut – Lavished throughout this bar, all-natural deep-

roasted hazelnuts add crunch and a distinctive, sophisticated flavor.

· LUXE MILK Toffee – This all natural, rich and creamy milk chocolate

made from the finest cocoa beans is perfectly matched with buttery,

crunchy toffee bits.

Help Raise Money for Breast Cancer Awareness:

Now through the end of December, you can purchase the specially marked LUXE MILK chocolates and enter the unique code at www.ghirardelli.com/LuxeMilk.  For each unique code entered, LUXE MILK will donate $1 to the NBCF.  As an added bonus, LUXE MILK will provide consumers with hundreds of instant prizes in this “Walk a Mile in My Shoes” instant win promotion, including Cole Haan gift cards.

 

Enter to Win:

2 Free Coupons for Ghirardelli’s LUXE Chocolate bar or bag

2 1.00 Off Coupons

To Enter:

I need to know what your favorite Ghirardelli Chocolate Flavor is to date!

Chocolate Defines your personality 50.00 GC #giveaway sponsored by Fannie May

December 14, 2009 by Momstart 681 Comments

 

What kind of chocolate are you? Fannie May has compiled a list of chocolate personalities. My favorite type of chocolate is dark chocolate so let’s see if the personality fits:

Based on research compiled by Fannie May my dark chocolate personality is:

Dark chocolate = Dark Chocolate, with the highest amount of antioxidants, is the perfect gift for someone who has had a hard year, or is just a Grinch!

Hmmm, I’m not sure this fits me but secretly I do think I’m a Grinch, or at least I’m a tight wad. I hate spending money. That’s probably something I haven’t shared, my deep dark secret. I love to spread joy though, so it’s a toss.

Here is the entire chocolate personality list:

Fannie May Chocolates

  1. Dark chocolate = Dark Chocolate, with the highest amount of antioxidants, is the perfect gift for someone who has had a hard year, or is just a Grinch!
  2. Milk chocolate = Milk chocolate is best matched with innocent child like or innocent personalities. Choose this type for younger ages or for the kid at heart!
  3. White chocolate = Fits the personality for someone who is gentle and timid, with a ravenous sweet tooth. White chocolate is a perfect gift for shy types
  4. Mint chocolate= Both mint and onions stimulate the same nerve (The nerve that makes you cry when you cut onions) and show a person’s ability to endure stress. Mint chocolate is best matched with stable and strong personalities, for your friends and loved ones who always “ seem to have it together” (Mint Meltaways)
  5. Fruity chocolate = This personality likes to step outside the box; fruity chocolates, such as raspberry and strawberry, are the perfect gift for the quirky type.
  6. Chocolates with nuts = Ideal for someone who enjoys a challenge or an adventure; choose nutty chocolates for your loved ones who continuously test the limits. (Pixies)
  7. Caramel Chocolate= Since the delicious gooey caramel that seeps out of a delicious chocolate casing is so difficult to eat, caramel lovers tend to be patient, tolerant and detail oriented. The ideal gift for teachers!
  8. Someone who enjoys surprises? Of course, you can always create your own special assortment of chocolates at your local Fannie May store or at Fanniemay.com

Celebrate Chocolate Giveaway

June 1, 2009 by MomStart 216 Comments

Yum, Yum Yum. I love chocolate and the darker it is the better. So when the Family Review Network said that they had a review opportunity for Chocolate I said YES YES YES. and I figured so would every other mom that is part of their review team. So, I still signed up and was on cloud nine when I was accepted. Next think I knew, Celebrate Chocolate Truffles arrived on my doorstep.

 

"When you savor one or two Celebrate Chocolates about 20 minutes before a meal – when your stomach is not full – it passes more quickly into your intestinal track. There, as it is digested, along with the natural cocoa oils, it begins to tell your body you are beginning to get full." –Celebrate Life Nutrition website

 

About Celebrate Chocolate:

 

Great chocolate, Celebrate’s premium chocolate, begins here, melting, covering, slowly fading as you swallow. But it doesn’t end there.

 

Premium Celebrate Chocolate™ is an experience more than a taste. It is a feeling. A richness unsurpassed. A sense of mindful involvement that holds your mind for a moment, before you can let it go. And you only let it go because you know there is another exotic, engaging bite awaiting. With Celebrate Chocolate, you savor slowly. Slowly. There is no other way you can savor it.

My Opinion:

I’m so glad I have some left. i am sitting here and having the biggest chocolate craving and I was just looking for some chocolate and I thought I was out. I’m not. I have a few more pieces left. Thank you God.!!! Yes thank you. This will help me with my post.

MMMMMMMMMMMMM

They came in two very small boxes and it said on the box to eat one or two before a meal and it will control your appetite. I thought, oh no, healthy chocolate but as good as it tastes, it can’t really be good for you. ;-).

At first bite it is bitter as dark chocolate should be but as you savor it, the sweetness hits your taste buds and it’s delicious. If I didn’t wait and let some time settle I would have eaten the entire box and I wouldn’t have experienced the feeling of not needing food. I forgot I was hungry.

I loved the chocolate covered almonds. Again, I wasn’t expecting them to be sweet at all but as I chewed I was excited by the slight sweetness. It was a perfect blend to me. I like chocolate, I like it dark, but I still like a little sweetness. I think Celebrate Truffles has figured it out. They were quite tasty. As were the truffles………

Enter To Win:

  • Celebrate Classics Truffle Box
    – Each box contains 1 Light Chocolate Truffle (62% Cocoa), 1 Dark Chocolate Truffle (73% Cocoa), and 3 Cocoa Covered Almonds
  • Celebrate Creations Truffle Box
    – Each box contains 1 @ Cherry Vanilla, Roasted Almond Bit, and Mountain Raspberry truffles

To Enter:
