Oh now. Oreos! Yep, LOVE 'em. Death by Oreo, when I NEED that fix...is placing about 6 Oreos into a glass...THEN pour in some milk...mush and wallah! An Oreo delight! But boy and boy you're DONE w/Oreos for a while. Blah!

And now the Cakesters....nice and soft and chewy. Easy to eat!

Years ago I learned that Hershey's has wax as an ingredient...reason why we still "taste" it after we eat it. So, I've warded of Hershey's Chocolate for about 10 years now. (wax is so bad for your system!) I do Godiva instead...MUCH healthier!

My partner makes chocolate-soy mousse which he makes up with a raspberry-wine compote. Adds maple syrup to sweeten it.

There are 2 gourmet cafes run by pastry chefs who each make elegant little gourmet cake slices, very creative..and they do use real chocolate. This is German-Austrian-French style. Very elegant, complicated slices. With a quality dark coffee and milk, that is my idea of a 'treat'.

When I baked more stuff in the past beyond dessert focaccia, I made chocolate banana cookies (soft and keeps well for a few days) and a chocolate-orange brownie.

Occasionally I have a chocolate-zuchinni muffin made by yet another bakery. Usually near end of a bike ride.

I'll have a biscotti with a bit of chocolate.
