Vosges Chocolates – Exotic Chocolates and More

24 August 2007 Leave a Comment

When friends visit us in Las Vegas, we like to parade around The Strip to hear their oooohs and ahhhhs, vicariously feeling that we had a hand in creating all this crafty overload of sensorial experiences. Alas, I’m not that brilliant and my input is confined to knowing “all the good places”.
Indeed, when Pierre visited recently for Toronto, Canada, I made the Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace one of our obligatory stops. Besides the Forum Shops unbelievable collection of upscale and luxury shops, nouveau/ancient roman-like environment, the curved escalator is one of its main attraction. But the Forum Shops are not the subject of this post. Indeed, the subject is a shop that the curved escalator led us to: Vosges Chocolate…

Agreeing to indulge my endless faiblesse for good, real chocolate, Pierre agreed that this shop was a necessary pit stop. Refuelling, you know… We sampled. And sampled some more. And eventually, we walked out with the totally indulgent Exotic Caramel Collection. OMG!!!! As my good friend Audrey would say, “a real M.O.”. If you can’t figure out what that means, you’ll need to email me. No, it’s not Modus Operandi. The M stands for Mouth…

Anyhoo, I love, love, love the novel mix of flavors, adding bona fide spices with sweet tastes. Just brilliant combinations. If you drop by Las Vegas, you must pay a visit, otherwise, you might find a retailer or Vosges Boutique in your area.
