tumbador chocolates by jean-francois bonnet

hey guys! i haven’t had a chance to go around the show cause it’s super busy but thought i’d share a few of my faves from our booth at the fancy food show here in san fran. it’s all on the ciao imports website…i’ve been trying to convince them to keep up with their blog but they don’t seem to understand all that it can be. guess it’s something you have to experience  to really get it!

sparkling tea

fatty bars with hot chili, made by jean francois bonnet for zak pelaccio of  fatty crab

organic and free trade teas

for me of course, the best is parisienne hot chocolate!

ok well i just dipped out to share a little of the booth and whet your appetite! i’ll be taking some of the samples to send out so if you’d like to try anything let me know!

    Jasmine tea! It’s my favorite….the gentle scent of it soothes me… It’s one of the few drinks I don’t need sugar in….
