Chocolate to drive away the winter blues…

I found a chocolate place in Melbourne Central. Tucked away in a corner of the building, the best way to describe it is the tiny lane accessible from little lonsdale street closer towards the Elizabeth street end. You know … the tiny lane with all the cafes next to the office building. I saw people having chocolate fondue, hot chocolate … yummy. Expensive but irresistible.

My latest chocolate fad was triggered by something I saw at the last home show. This company, Groovy Chocolate, was able to print colour photos onto chocolate. Just imagine … being able to lick a favourite person or to bite into a least favourite person. Either way, it is still chocolate. Since Mother’s day is round the corner, just imagine buying chocolate for your mother or mother-in-law!:)

Anyone tried french fries dipped in chocolate?

    Pictures on a chocolate - that might make an interesting gift?

    Strange that I’ve never had french fries dipped in chocolate although I’ve tried them with ice cream before. :D

    I’m coming to Melbourne in July. This sounds very cool… I’d love to try it.

    I second the Fraus recommendation … although that weird glass floor bit in front of the counter always freaks me out!

    Ordered some chocolate from Groovy Chocolate the other day - I couldn’t believe the picture quality, looks almost too good to eat! Tested out their “we’ll print ANYTHING on chocolate” policy - yes they do! That’s all my birthday presents sorted for the next year! Thanks squirt.

    I love Max Brenner - it’s amazing - but have you ever been to KOKO BLACK? Its in one of the arcades off Bourke Street Mall - hand made chocolates to die for. Hot chocolate fresh made - plus there is a great place to sit upstairs and hang out.
    Speaking of fries- have you ever tried LORD OF THE FRIES? Incredible - i think they may have chocolate dipped fries - or if not - they should!!!
