My coworker Sarafina is always getting holiday care packages from home, stuffed with thrilling little goodies that she's generous enough to share. This Easter bestowed the beautifully packaged chocolate eggs from Caffarel, a company founded in 1826 in the Piedmont region of Italy.
We spent some time with an Italian to English translation widget to learn the flavors: mandorla (almond), torroncino (nougat), gianduja (hazelnut & chocolate paste); I finally decided on mandoria which was rich with a hint of marzipan sweetness.
But what do you think?
