The Chocolixir


As I was studying for a test coming up this week, I got a not unusual craving for some chocolate. I didn't know if I wanted dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate (which actually is not really chocolate for everyone out there who thinks it is), a candy bar, or a baked good. Then I remembered one of my favorite chocolate experiences of all time, the chocolixir from Godiva. You know it already sounds good by the name of it, chocolixir, which sounds like a pokemon character mixed with a theme park ride.

I was at the mall with my friends doing a little shopping one day when, of course, my chocolate craving came up again, and i NEEDED to get some chocolate. We were walking by the Godiva store so I thought, why not, and popped in to see what kind of chocolate they had. It was heaven. They had everything from truffles, to biscuits, to chocolate covered strawberries! Then I saw a menu over the cashier with a list of flavors for "chocolixirs" and I knew I had to try them. I ordered the dark chocolate decadence, since I like dark chocolate the most, and waited in awe as the cashier poured layers of rich, decadent, chocolate into a blender. He topped it off with some whipped cream and caramel and I entered a food coma. I did not speak to anyone as the intense, refreshingly cool chocolate frappe-like drink slid down into my stomach. Bits of chocolate are even present in the blend so you get that extra kick for the chocolate lovers like me out there.

Thanks to new media, you can search for the nearest Godiva store that offers chocolixirs so you can go get one yourself! Just click here!

  1. Naomi,
    I just happened to stumble upon your blog and let me just say that I am disgusted by it. A whole blog dedicated to chocolate?! It's like you have no respect for the vanilla fanatics of the world. I personally find chocolate appalling and I would appreciate a shout out for vanilla once in a while in your blog. Unlike chocolate, vanilla is simple, refreshing and delicious and no one seems to realize that! Geez...
    Sincerely,
    Allie (vanilla lover)
