Cheap-o and primo chocolate swap

Number of people in swap:29
Location:Other

Last day to signup/drop:February 24, 2008
Date items must be sent by:March 22, 2008
Number of swap partners:2
Description:

For this swap, you'll have two partners and you'll be sending each partner two edible chocolate items. The first item is "everyday" chocolate, like the stuff you'd find at your local gas station or grocery store. The second item will come from a candy store or chocolate store, so it's a little more of a high-quality chocolate item. Things from Gertrude Hawk or the Lindt store are along the lines of what I'm thinking of (or, hey, if you have a Godiva near you, go for it for hearts!) or if you have a local favorite chocolatier. The primo item should be just as large as the cheap-o item if not bigger. Two partners, international, open to newbies and anyone with no no-sends in the last 3 months. Please list allergies and preferences below.

I like pretty much anything except very bitter dark chocolate, like anything over 50-60%. I don't mind semi-sweet though. Any other chocolate is welcome.

dislike: godiva (can you believe it?), white chocolate, fruit flavored chocolate. yum!

I have to honestly say, Ive never had the gourmet chocolates!! Strange I know. I am one of the ones that buy the cheap-o ones on clearance after christmas. It will be fun going to a gertrude hawk or somewhere like that and looking around for fun presents.

jarrettjags: I can't believe you haven't even had Lindt truffles before. I KNOW drug reps have brought those into work. You should have snagged some.

I like most chocolate. I don't care for really gooey things, unless it's got caramel in it. Small batch chocolate is intriguing.

CarCrashHearts, I CANT believe I never saw them!!! I will be watching now since I will see them before the nurses!! haha. MMM MMMM GOOD

The only thing I really dislike is white chocolate. Well that, anything spicy or overly unusual.

I LOOOOVE dark chocolate, unless it's the Dove chocolates in which case I like the milk chocolate better (don't ask me why, I'm weird like that). I don't like white chocolate or peanut butter, but I love pretty much anything else. I especially love cherry cordials, mmmmmm...

Hi everyone! I love chocolate (hard not to!) and I am very happy to start my swapping experience by joining this great and sweet swap :)

I can only say I really dislike mint-flavored chocolate and too weird tastes (like chili pepper or other spices). Anything else will be enjoyed for sure ^^

Hey y'all! This is my first swap on swap bot and its all about chocolate! No preferences, all chocolate is good chocolate! I am looking forward to the shopping.

For filled chocolates I like nuts and chews. The only cream centered I like are coconut or marzipan. I do not care for truffles or cordials. I love hazelnut, almond, marzipan. I love Lindt chocolates.

Plain chocolates... anything but dark. Not too much white. I like it but can only eat a little because it is so sweet.

I do not care for Godiva. I love Belgian chocolates.

I like most anything else. Even the stuff I'm not too crazy about I will eat. I have a major sweet tooth. :)

No allergies

I do not like - dark/bitter, or chocolate with fruit, coconut, or hazelnut in it

I love other nuts (peanuts and almonds especially), toffee, caramel, peanut butter, coffee/mocha or just about anything else. I prefer chocolate with something in it over plain chocolate bars, but I'll like (and eat) either.

I would prefer sugar free chcolate if at all possible I am diabetic Thank you

ladymischeif 02/25/2008 #

i like strawberry chocolate and caramel thanks

greyeyes 02/26/2008 #

I totally forgot to do this. Thanks for reminding me, jarrettjags!

I don't like coconut, dried fruit (especially raisins), or peanuts. I like everything else, though -- milk slightly more than dark but both are great, mint, peanut butter, almonds, caramel, nougat, etc. I don't have any allergies, but I am a vegetarian, so please no gelatin. :)
