Looking to give a sweet treat to someone special for Valentine's Day? Perhaps you are hoping to receive something deliciously wonderful from your other half this year. If so, you need to look no further than Coco-Zen for the most amazing organic, Fair-Trade chocolate truffles ever.
Coco-Zen is a mom-owned business. Not only do they sell yummy, organic chocolate truffles in many mouth-watering flavors, they also offer decadent chocolate body treats. That's right, you can pamper your lips and your skin with the tantalizing scent of chocolate. (Oh. My. Heck. The chocoholic I am NEEDS to try the body products by Coco-Zen!)
A little background about Coco-Zen:
Coco-Zen came about when new mom and chocoholic, Joyce Kushner, decided to take a break from the frenetic pace of retail marketing to stay at home to care for her newborn son. During maternity leave, Joyce spent her 45-minute "breaks" while her son napped making chocolate desserts. It turned out that experimenting with chocolates (and tasting them!) helped Joyce maintain her post-partum "tranquility."
Chocolate truffles being her favorite, Joyce soon developed several "harmonious" flavor combinations and gave them away to family and friends (while extolling the wonders of a little daily chocolate indulgence). As it turned out, the truffles were a hit. So deciding to take a chance, she said goodbye to corporate America and went into business for herself.
Thus, Coco-Zen was born - spreading the joy of chocolate "enlightenment" one truffle at a time.
Thanks to Mom Fuse and Coco-Zen, I had the absolute pleasure of sampling some of the truffles. I was sent dark chocolate and chocolate mint truffles in a beautiful two-tier To-Give tin, as well as the Signature Sampler To-Go tin.When the truffles arrived, I selfishly wanted to hide them away and keep them for myself. Instead, I took them to Emma's birthday party and shared them with the whole family. They were a hit!
The size of the truffles is generous, and though you could eat one and probably be satisfied, they are far too addicting to stop at one!
The favorite truffles among the group was the Chocolate Mint Bliss. The mint flavor was perfect- not at all overpowering. I most wanted to try the Chai Spice, but there was only one of them, and my sister got to it before I could. She told me that it was the best chocolate she had ever tasted. She described the flavor as the perfect blend of her two favorite things- chocolate and chai tea lattes.
I will definitely be purchasing more truffles to give as gifts (and for myself, too) from Coco-Zen. I'm thinking with Valentine's Day and our wedding anniversary just around the corner, I need to let my hubby know about Coco-Zen- the perfect place to shop for chocolate treats to pamper my body and satisfy my sweet tooth. :)Coco-Zen would like to offer all living life one day at a time and Mom Fuse readers a chance to experience all the chocolate goodness that Coco-Zen has to offer at a 10% discount.
