Vosges Haut Chocolat

I am always scouring the internet for creative food gifts. Decadent special food is my favorite thing to give on a birthday, well that and flowers. I love to give items as gifts because they are each the sort of purchase that people will usually not make for themselves. I know I rarely buy a decadent dessert on a random Wednesday or hardly treat myself to really good chocolate and nearly never buy myself flowers. In my mind those sort of treats are reserved for special occasions and birthdays.

Luckily, I have very good friends who agree. Yay, I'm a very lucky woman! Each year my dear friend buys me a sweet treat for my birthday.  Last year an adorable crate of mini cheesecakes in a tiny glass jars arrived from Decadence Cheesecakes. They were absolutely delicious. And today, just 4 days before my 30th birthday, this year's sweet treat arrived. Truly the highlight of my day and I am excited because I think I might have a new place to buy delicious gifts.

A beautiful purple boxed filled with not only chocolate, but bacon flavored chocolate accompanied by a stout beer arrived in the mail. Thank you my dear friend, you know the way to my heart: beer, bacon and chocolate. If there had been a block of cheese in that box life would really be complete. I just love everything about the gift. Its unique, the chocolate is interesting, delicious and very high quality and its partnered with beer. It even came with instructions on how to best experience chocolate and beer together. I just love it, and the company Vosges has tons and tons of creative and beautifully packaged edible gifts on their site. (No I am not on Vosges's dime, I just know a good product when I taste one).
