I'm not normally big on chocolate, but these bonbons from Sucre are addicting. My favorites are the Wedding Cake, a decadent white chocolate and toasted almond ganache treat covered in swirled gold and ivory white chocolate (so amazing, I bought a purse of them); the Avery, which is dark chocolate with a creamy caramel and milk chocolate ganache center, enhanced with just a bit of coarse sea salt; and the Earl Gray, which has a white chocolate ganache heart, infused with tea and topped with a hand-painted chocolate plaquette. At $2 a piece, though, it's as expensive of a habit as drugs. But who cares?
Ever wondered how something tasted, but were too nervous to try it? Ever wish someone would graphically describe an eating experience so you could gauge if were worth consuming? Then read on! The Vicarious Food Whore is an excuse for this passionate food writer to wax poetic, rhapsodize, and tell stories about the food I crave, dishes I dream of, snacks I obsess over, and meals eaten for pure hedonistic pleasure...in drool-worthy detail. Sample cuisine risk-free -- eat vicariously!
