A Call For Chocolate


1/9/10

The Food

Maya and I make a quick trip into town to drop off product with Juls, the River Wave Foods demo person. Juls is demo-ing at the Whole Foods Market in the Pearl so while we are here Maya and I do an obligatory pass through the bakery. Neatly lined up for our inspection are muffins, bagels, glistening fruit tarts, carrot cakes and the most fetching of them all; the chocolate cupcake. No ordinary cupcake, not this one and even before a bite has been taken one can intuit that this cupcake is a cup above the rest. Topped with chocolate mousse, butter cream and chocolate frosting, finished with a dusting of white sprinkles, what could be more decadent or delightful on this cold, dreary January afternoon. We are to meet Karn and Naomi at the barn later today....yeah. a definite call for chocolate.
