Chocolate You Dream About

One bite of the divine chocolate that William Poole so expertly crafts and you will understand why the Dean Brothers from FoodTV included them in their show, Road Tested, and in their follow on cookbook.

I could spend hours waxing eloquently about the different truffles at Wen Chocolates and I've tried nearly all of them - I'm not kidding, just ask Stephen. I think the Citrona is my favorite in all of it's champagne and citrus glory or is it the spiciness of the peppered vodka and four different peppers in the Savannah (which is the chocolate that promoted the Dean Brothers' visit)? It's impossible to decide, they're like your children, you can't pick a favorite, you just love them all.
The passion that William has about what he makes comes shining through when you talk with him about what goes into each truffle; chocolate from all over the world, unique ingredients from chili peppers to champagne to the molds from the turn of the century.
These are no ordinary chocolates, these are sublime creations of cocoa love. All I have to say, is thank you William for creating passion you can taste.
