Well it's Valentine's Day... all have gone out and bought red roses, cards,
teddy bears and many other very romantic things! For me it's my 8th wedding
anniversary, and I will point out that although we love each other dearly, we
don't do the usual romantic things... this year my hubby took me to Brighton! A
lovely few days, but the biggest reason we chose there, besides the beautiful
weather, not brrrr; was to visit the fabulous Choccywoccydoodah!

During our mad shopping day, and
boy was it mad, we stopped off for cake and the famous hot chocolate!
Now this is the cake that arrived... chocolate cake with white chocolate
truffle drizzled with dark and white chocolate and a cherry syrup, finished
with a lovely vanilla ice cream. Although I make cakes, I had high hopes for
this, but unfortunately it was dry and really not what I was hoping for :(
However, the hot chocolate was absolutely to die for!! Made with melted
Belgian chocolate, steamed milk topped with large marshmallows and the squirty
cream dusted with cocoa. This was well and truely the best hot choc I've
tasted... mine was the milk chocolate option.
The service in the cafe was very slow, and bless the two that were working
there, they tried so hard to get everything done and out to customers as quick
as they could, but it took almost half an hour from ordering to being served;
there were some customers who gave up and walked out!

From there we went through to their famous shop!
The window did not disappoint... any fan of the shows will have seen this
fabulous creation being made and used in their chocolate party. It was
magnificent, how on earth they manage to make such huge sculptures??!!??
Obviously you have to buy something whilst your there... so my treasure was a large lips chocolate lollypop, a huge bar of chocolate with cinder toffee and to show off, a 'Choccy' bag!!
Hope you all have a lovely Valentine's day,
