It's St Valentines day tomorrow, so time to go shopping for shoes and chocolates (and preferably both). Apparently Theobroma is Latin for "Food of the Gods", so it's a good name for this shop (which sells high quality chocolate) and a good place for that shopping....
Besides chocolate they also sell ice-cream and coffee, so pretty well all you need!
For children they sell chocolate dinosaurs. I was impressed that the man who served me could name each of the five different types! For adults they sell English rose and English violet fondants. Their orange slices dipped in dark chocolate are very popular:
as is their Malakoffe, made with praline, roasted almonds, hazelnuts, pistachios, raisins and orange peel.
You can buy a heart for your loved one:
Last Valentine's day I mentioned Simon Dunn's chocolate shoes. Theobroma Cacao go another step forward (excuse the pun) and sell Leopard Skin Stilettos made in chocolate!
