Chocophilia: Blogged!
Please see the posting on Sharon at Optimistically Cautious, a local Edmonton blogger. She wrote: “The white chocolate lime was such an unusual combination, but worked, melding the richness of the high cocoa butter content with bites of citrus tang.

[Kerstin's Chocolates'] Chocophilia gourmet chocolates are small bars with a bit of a twist. I was lucky enough to enjoy a sample at the Italian Centre one day and can see how the Chocophilia Pumpkin Pie - a milk chocolate bar covered with graham cracker bits and flavoured with nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon - can become habit-forming.
