Chocolat Chaud at Fauchon, watercolor on paper, 12" x 15" Who saw the BORAT movie out there? Admit it! OK, so this is another cup of hot chocolate...but I don't have any watercolors of so-called "weird chocolate"...
I know I said over and over get to know your cacao beans... Is this carrying it a bit far? And look at those chocolate bars hanging from the waist. You can always eat your dress if necessary...from the Salon du Chocolat couture show.
Hmmm...this was at the Paris show. They offered to give me "a schmear" (on my face!) No merci :) 
You could write a letter to a loved one using chocolate! Jadis et Gourmande specializes in chocolate letters. You compose the message....
Jean-Paul Hévin spent days (!?) creating this wonderment for last year's Salon du Chocolat. It's not so easy to make a REAL shoe out of chocolate evidently.Is this little girl thinking, "Hmm...will he give me the crumbs when he's done sculpting his chocolate?"

The first painting is wonderful!
And that chocolate shoe and edible dress, what clever and unusual things you find!!
I'd like to eat those chocolate crumbs too...
Carol, your blog is very nice! But it appears quite laggy..?
well..it seems that chocolate sculpture is an art form all on its own...! :o)
wow, what glorious wonders.
Thanks for the lovely report :) Now you made me chocolate craving for the whole weekend!
Your posts are always so delicious looking and your blogging so finely crafted. You put all of us bloggers out there to shame...
all that chocolate...yumm. My daughter just got back from seeing Borat, she loved it. Not sure if I would?
i love visiting your blog. The chocolate pictures are great. Thanks for sharing.
I came to your blog via Maryam's mymaarkesh.com. Vow, It is nice to see all things french, since I am currently learning the language.My husband drooled over your water colors.
Thanks for the info on the Pigment store. We will be coming by and I will be stopping by ever so often.
The shoe is marvelous! So many women I know who love chocolate also love shoes ... it's brilliant (as are your illustrations/watercolors).
~*Chocolate*~ everytime I visit and you know what.. I get a craving ..
then I have to ~*eat chocolate*~ so I am off!Today it's choc peppermint bark.mmmm
Well, now we know the mystery of why there aren't more chocolate shoes out there. That's hilarious. I have heard that chocolate is good for your skin so you might want to reconsider next time you're offered a smear of chocolate:-)
I saw Borat, but I almost think he's funnier in "Da Ali G Show." How he does what he does with a staight face is beyond me...he's insane. Your work is lovely, as usual...enjoying it today in Tucson AZ.
i saw borat, too. and actually, he's kind of hot in real life.
Your chocolate posts are contagious! I'm in a constant state of chocolate craving!
Cactus chocolate, oh, my! So many delectable fancies... so much chocolatey goodness.
take care, g
I'm trying to imagine cactus chocolate... Can't quite do it.
Love the painting. The chocolate color is perfect!
