This weekend, Alex, Toby and I walked by a new store, The Meadow, in the West Village. The shop sells chocolate, flowers and artisan salts (it's all about life's simple pleasures), and we splurged on these Komforte Chockolate bars. Aren't the flavors fun? They were really delicious.
P.S. They'd make cute stocking stuffers.
P.P.S. I'm so excited for this year's gift guide!
...but were they as good as dairy milk?!
ReplyDeleteMmm.. I bet that lime & salt one would be tasty!!
ReplyDeleteI am excited for your gift guides too. I love them!
ReplyDeletewoahhhh what do they taste like?! does the ramen one actually have the noodles in it??
ReplyDeleteThat French Toast sounds fun...Did you try them? They are really cool:)
ReplyDeleteKisses, Joanna
Are they as good as they look like?
ReplyDeleteYES! the ramen one has noodles, and the tortilla one has tortilla chips!
ReplyDeletekaty, nothing is as good as dairy milk :)
ReplyDeleteI adore creative chocolates like that! These will definitely be finding a way in my husband's stocking.
ReplyDeletethe ramen noodles bring back lots of memories! :)
ReplyDeleteso fun! i love raspberry and dark chocolate bars, this makes me feel like i need to get a little wilder :) we went away to celebrate our one year anniversary -- duck, north carolina is amazing in the fall -- thought maybe sometime you, alex and toby would love it: http://tulipsandflightsuits.squarespace.com/tulips-flight-suits/2010/11/15/little-getaway.html
ReplyDeleteTortilla!!!
ReplyDeleteOohh! Tortilla Lime. Sounds amazing!!! :)
ReplyDeleteooh! I saw this place reviewed in the Times a few weekends ago- their primary spot is in Portland, OR and I was so frustrated we didn't know about it for our Honeymoon last month. Next time we're back in NYC totally checking it out.
ReplyDeleteooooh, i must get my hands on a few of those french toast bars! yumm. :)
ReplyDeleteI live in Portland, which is the other location of this shop, and I'm planning on buying some of those crazy chocolate bars as stocking stuffers this year!
ReplyDeleteHey Joanna! My husband created Komforte Chockolates! I'm so glad you enjoyed them. The Meadow have been huge supporters of ours, plus its just an amazing store.
ReplyDeleteHmm French Toast sounds amazing, Tortilla Lime and Salt looks bearable... but the Ramen Noodle scares me haha This looks like fun to try out tho :D

Next time you go, you have to try Xocolatl de David's chocolates- he makes salted caramel bars (personal favorite) and piment de espalet chocolates- all by hand, in a tiny studio in Portland, Oregon. Love.
ReplyDeleteI don't think ANYONE is more excited for your gift guide this year than me!
ReplyDeletelove love loooove it!
ooh la la!
ReplyDeletethe french toast is calling to me!!
very cool stocking stuffer idea.
What doesn't taste good in chocolate?? p.s. I heard that there's in ten years, a snickers could cost $20...!
ReplyDeleteramen noodles minus the icky yellow flavor packet, I assume?? eek!
ReplyDeleteI am so in love with this chocolate trend. There are so many varieties of chocolate coming out and my husband and I love to try new ones all the time!
ReplyDeleteThese are too cute! I'd go for some french toast chocolate.

Waw how funky and original! Love all things different...

Amusing + clever...quite the conversation pieces.
ReplyDeleteCall me a chicken, but I don't think I could handle the ramen noodle option. Emotionally too, you know?! I instantly think of 1st year at college, scrounging by...

Hmm those look really yummie! I love the design wrappers ;)
ReplyDeleteThey look fun! But I'm not sure how the ramen and tortilla chips would taste. Have you tried them yet? Were they delicious?
ReplyDeletemmmm. These look delicious. I am very curious as to what they actually taste like. This is a wonderful stocking stuffer idea for my hubby. Thank you for sharing. P.S Did you ever find yourself a photo intern?
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for this years gift guide too! The holidays are fast approaching!

ReplyDeleteFrench toast chocolate? I die!
ReplyDeletethey look delightful!
ReplyDeletethese look awesome! but i must say, ramen noodle? what did it taste like?!
ReplyDeletexo.
i would love to try the ramen noodle!
ReplyDeletewe haven't tried the ramen one yet, but we LOVED the tortilla lime and salt. it's super tangy and salty and amazing!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know The Meadow opened up a NY branch. They are an awesome shop around the corner from my in Portland, Or. I just tried the French toast bar last week - very yummy.
ReplyDelete(Also check out Meadow salt blocks next time you are in)
wow I love unusual combinations, like these. I'll have to try them!
ReplyDeleteLove these chocolates! How fun!

what funny bars!
ReplyDeletei went to mast bros. chocolate while i was visiting nyc. dreamy! xo!!!
I don't know how I feel about Ramen plus chocolate, but I still want to try one of the Vosges bacon chocolate bars!
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting... we have that store here in Portland too! Who knew they had more than one location? :) ITs such a great combo, salt, chocolate and flowers...
ReplyDeleteI put the Ramen one in my hubby's Christmas stocking last year. It was actually pretty delicious.
ReplyDeleteFEED ME!
ReplyDeleteThose sounds amazing. Did they have pickle flavor chocolate?
The packaging is so cute on those chocolate bars. Entices you to be a bit daring and try the flavours even though they don't sound so appealing!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever heard of Theo Chocolate (from Seattle?). They are really well known in the Northwest for their fair trade chocolate and unusual flavors (like bread and chocolate and bacon!).
ReplyDeleteLoving the type on these.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for anything chocolate
Hmmmm... I'm a girl who likes her chocolate. But are those flavors really good??
ReplyDeletesweet freak, yes -- they're soooo delicious. sometimes chocolate flavors are too quirky, but these are actually so good.
ReplyDeleteI just visited the Meadow a few weeks ago when I was in NY! Did you speak with the owner, Mark? Wow, that guys knows salt. I brought home a little pot of truffle salt and have been putting it on EVERYTHING!
ReplyDeleteSounds delish.
ReplyDeleteWOW! These would be perfect for my boyfriend -- he's much more of a savory snacker, and I'm afraid that any more stocking-stuffer beef jerky or stocking-stuffer Marmite might do him in, blood pressure-wise... and Ramen Noodle Chocolate would be right up his alley ... Thanks for the find!
