Mmmm...me and chocolate are best friends! That is why I was so excited when Cowgirl Chocolates sent me some great chocolates to taste! I was in heaven! Plus, these aren't your everyday, ordinary chocolates and I am always up for trying new things! So what is the difference with these chocolates? Well, Cowgirl Chocolates combine fine European chocolate with spice to create what they call the "Cowboy Kick". And oh did they have a kick! At first the you taste a creamy delicious chocolate truffle with a melt in your mouth middle and hard outside. Then as you start to swallow it, you start to feel a little spice go down your throat! That is the cayenne pepper starting to KICK in! It wasn't too strong that it ruins the chocolate flavor, but my husband's eyes did start to water a little bit :) However, it didn't slow him down from eating another one! :)
I personally liked it! I liked that they were different and they give a little different experience to eating chocolate! It may even make me think twice about shoveling chocolate (especially theirs) in your mouth piece after piece! You definitely have to slow down and savor the flavor!
If you are not a spice kind of gal (or guy) then Cowgirl Chocolates also makes great truffles for you too! They have what they call Mild Truffles without the cayenne pepper...and without the slight burn as it goes down! I loved the Double Dark Chocolate ones! That's the other great feature about Cowgirl Chocolates- the different flavors to choose from were all amazing! They have flavors such as rasberry dark chocolate, double dark chocolate, hazelnut milk, cappucino, raspberry dark, ivory orange, and even smooth, chewy caramels! The flavors were to die for!
If you would like to have a new experience eating chocolate or like a "little kick" in your food, then check out the Cowgirl Chocolates website and try it for yourself - you won't be disappointed! They even have some organic and all natural chocolate daisies for organic lovers! You will definitely find a piece that you will love from their collection because there is something for every chocolate lover and every type of taste bud. Come try a new adventure in chocolate tasting today!

Oh, yeah. Cayenne definitely adds a kick to chocolate! There's a local chocolatier that makes spicy truffles and "hot" chocolate with it. I was hesitant to even try it as I typically don't like spicy foods at all. It was different, but delicious. As Alton Brown says, "Adding heat to sweet is good eats" or something like that anyway.
