    之前曾有報導說: 經科學實驗證明, 朱古力含有某種能止咳的化學物質.

    之後我便大條道理讓我姪女吃朱古力, 而無需擔心被家母責罵.

    Ha ha!
    So there is some truth in the healing power of chocolate?
    原來亂打亂撞也能撞出道路來!:)

    The wrapping paper is beautiful ! They’re only available at St. John’s?
    Love super dark chocolates. Your post make me want to leave the office now and go get a bar. Chocolates are not only cure for hot-aired coughs, they could also cheer people up.

    Yes, dear W, you can get DC elsewhere too.
    But DC prices at the Bookstore are real fair.
    And I like the St John’s atmosphere.
    But you can also try Crossroads (at Tun Mun).
    Alternatively, come up to us at Sai Kung.
    I still have 2 bars but am ordering 10 or more.

    Just found out today that in old old Germany
    People took chocolate to stengthen their body.
    It was sold at the apothecary!
    Little Philippe Suchard once bought a pound
    For his ailing mum and that might have inspired him
    To the later world famous Suchard chocolate.

    To you, Suchard chocolates may mean very little.
    But when I say Sugus? Yes, 瑞士糖.
    They were invented by Suchard too!
    Not Philippe Suchard, though.
    He would have been an old boy
    Of one hundred and thirty-four!

    Things have changed a lot since I posted the above entry in 2007.

    Divine Chocolate is available in many more places.

    But the biggest change is that I have found a new love in Kablon Pure Cacao Tablets with full aroma, and a newer love in their latest star product: Cacao Tablets sweetened with Coco Nectar.

    Hard to imagine that even Divine can lose my favour …

    Yes, Kablon 70% Pure Cacao + 30% Coco Nectar is irresistible!

    And yes, their pure cacao has also recently helped me to combat my cough.
