Chocolates To Sigh For - CR article

In the February issue, Consumer Reports did an article on chocolate. Very timely with Valentine's Day right around the corner. (I think it was planned!)

Their "Excellent, Though Pricey" list included:
1.) Norman Love Confections 25 pieces - $49
2.) John & Kira's Classic Every Flavor 56 pieces - $79
3.) La Maison du Chocolat Coffret Maison Dark and Milk 72 pieces - $102
4.) Woodhouse Chocolate Assortment 48 pieces - $84
5.) Jacques Torres Jacques' Choice 50 pieces - $55
6.) Candinas 36 pieces - $46
7.) Martine's Assortment du Jour Signature 36 pieces - $76
8.) Nonnie Waller's Traditional Southern Treasure Chest Truffles Casanova - $85
9.) Fran's 36 piece Assorted Truffles Collection - $44

Their "Very Good, Less Expensive" list included:
1.) See's Assorted Chocolates - $15
2.) Leonidas Chocolate General Assortment - $34
3.) Godiva 36 piece Gold Ballotin - $40

Huh, I wonder why Hershey's didn't make the list... ha, ha, ha!
