There is nothing quite comparable to the excitement of hot, liquid chocolate running down my throat... I loved it pre-op, I still love it post-op!
Several months ago, I saw an advertisement for SF Monin Dark Chocolate Sauce. It was a young (very attractive, thin) lady covered in chocolate!! Sure enough, that caught my attention. I wasn't sure if I was interested in the product because it tasted good, or somehow subconsciously I wondered if that is what I would look like if I ordered the sauce...
I learned recently that IF a company can associate itself with someone who has a certain image, then people tend to associate that image with their product. In this case, Monin's "saucy pin-up girl" must have been a result of her consuming the chocolate sauce, right? Enhh, don't know about that... but I knew that I had to "get me some o' dat." The sauce, I mean! (Although, if I ended up looking like her, I would not mind at all)
I headed on down to the local Joe Muggs at Books-
A-Million BECAUSE I am a tight wad and hate to spend money on shipping... A jug of Monin cost me $9.99 and they threw in a free pump. I got it home, took off the lid, and stuck my finger in it. WOWSERS, HOLY JEEZE, LOUISE! My first trial was on an 1/8 cup of sugar free vanilla ice cream. After eating the last spoon of ice cream, I dipped my finger into the small ramekin and swirled it into the chocolate, licking my finger, swirling.... oh who am I fooling? I stuck my face into the bowl and licked it clean! NOT one drop went to waste!
This morning, I decided to try this out in my own homemade Mocha... Joe Muggs' is good, but now comes the REAL test! I pumped 2 squirts of Monin into a BlenderBottle, 8 oz of Hood Calorie Countdown Milk, and two shots of espresso.... This was THE BEST mocha I have tasted out of my own kitchen!
There are visions of SF hot fudge cakes dancing in my head! There is a perfect bariatric friendly SF chocolate cake recipe in my files... served with SF vanilla ice cream... WARM Monin chocolate sauce drizzled on top! If you are in the market for a new sugar free chocolate sauce, RUN down and get you some today! I do not believe that you will be disappointed!
