What a week it has been for me! With piles of assignments to complete and presentations to prepare, I got caught up in this crazy swirl of hustling and bustling madness. But thank goodness, exercising and hitting the gym have helped me alot in putting my mind off work. I just needed a break…to refresh my senses. It’s almost as if as God has sense that all I need is probably a little treat to boost my morale during this tough time. Yes indeed, I was delighted to receive my chocolate creation from Cocoa B on that very cool and windy night after I came back from a media dinner event at Gardens by the Bay. A dose of chocolate is what I need to perk myself up.

(A snapshot of the website)

When I was Cocoa B’s website to order my chocolate creation, I had spent quite a bit of time to decide the type of chocolate I want. The truth is I love both dark and white chocolate. If only I could have both though! But I selected white chocolate over dark chocolate because I figured that my chocolate would look aesthetically more pleasing with the toppings I had chosen in mind!

 Even though I would love to squeeze in like my ten favourite toppings into my chocolate bar, I knew it would look more like messy piece of art if I’ve added all my favourite nuts in. So I decided to be good and stick with 5 toppings, the maximum number of toppings you can select on the website. I selected almonds (for its Vitamin E content), dried strawberries (for its fruit fibre) ,wolf berries ( or Goji berries for its antioxidants), dark heart-shape chocolate ( so I could enjoy dark and white chocolate at the same time!) and cinnamon. I love cinnamon so how could I not pick it as a topping? Besides, it goes really well with the white chocolate. A dash of spice could really jazz up your life!
