As you may (or may not) know from reading my blog, I have a carb monster living inside of me.  When the rare day comes around to indulge the monster I can think of no better place to do it then Sublime Chocolate.

Why would I break my regiment and willing purchase something off the list.  Because it’s chocolate.  It is very good chocolate.  It is Sublime Chocolate.

Sublime Chocolate is not your average chocolate shop.  There are no high-school students making batches of chocolate from a pre-packaged mixes or stocking the shelves with shipped in factory produced chocolate.  The chocolate at Sublime is hand-made in the shop from all-natural, no preservative ingredients.  If you ask nicely and the store is not busy Troy (Owner, chef, and everything else) may even walk you through the Chocolate making process.  An understanding of the process should add a new level of appreciation for the artistry and skill it takes to make the beautiful tasty truffles sold in the store.

Truffles, yum, the chocolates created by Troy are the most unique flavors I have seen.  My two current favorite truffles are a caramel coated in dark chocolate and sprinkled with sea salt followed closely by a dark chocolate shell filled with curry and coconut.  He also has the standard truffles that you can find at the chains (Godiva, Schakolade, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory) but if you stop by Sublime you must try one or two out of the ordinary truffles if for no other reason than to get out of the rut you are in!  I’ll post a menu of what he is currently carrying in this section later.

Mom will be in town this Saturday and I have a feeling she will be visiting Sublime Chocolates this weekend so expect a carb monster posting on Monday.  I heard through the grapevine that Troy has recently come out with a pecan pie truffle that is out of this world.  I may have a new favorite in a few days…..
