It’s that time of year again….lights are up, the sound of carols can be heard in the shops, hats, gloves are scarves are needed to go outside and best of all….chocolate has taken over fruit and veg in the 5-a-day stakes. (well, it has in our house anyway!!!)
I love this time of year, the fact that each day starts with the opening of an advent calendar chocolate before I’ve even had breakfast is wonderful. And what’s even better, is that this year the fabulous team at Hotel Chocolat have sent me some of their scrummy treats to review meaning I can easily get in my compulsory 5-a-Day chocolates this month!
So, my goodie box contained one of their infamous H-boxes – the MILK OBLIVION one (yum!) – a tub of (Award Winning!) Kirsch Cherries, and the fabulous Go Bananas Slab!!!

I was planning on showing you pictures of the boxes opened, and delicately displayed, before we tried them….but i’m afraid that all of us fighting for our 5-a-Day didn’t leave much to show!
Needless to say the cherries were delicious, soft, sweet and covered in just the right amount of bitter dark chocolate…the H-box was indeed filled with a glorious selection of milk chocolate morsels designed to take you on a blissful taste adventure… and the Slab did send us all Bananas!!!
Hotel Chocolat have come up trumps yet again and shown us that chocolate really is one of the essential food groups!
For more inspiration check out their Christmas Gifts Boxes or Stocking Fillers!
Even better news for you guys is that Hotel Chocolat are offering a similar treat pack to mine to one lucky person….just comment on this article or tweet me a message using #HCandLulubelles. We’ll pick a random winner out on Friday 9th at midday…happy commenting!

Neither had I until this week! Megan asked for a Zooble cake for her 8th Birthday, turns out they are little plastic balls that pop open to reveal a hidden character within!
Quite a challenge, but I’m pretty pleased with the result – what do you think?

Not exactly sure why but for some reason when Lulubelle’s started running ‘Cake Days’ at Redweb we decided to promote them using spoof movie posters…
There is no rhyme or reason, but we love them and hope they make you smile too!
