I was once given a box of chocolates made by Teuscher
oh yum - they are so very good!
the box was a jester
and his body was full of
champagne truffles!
such unique packaging!

ReplyDeleteTammie, at first I went right past this as I thought you had linked to the wrong post, not being able to find any boxes but then I re-read it and now I get it totally. WOW! What a unique container of chocs! How fun is that? you did a great job painting this too. Well done. Champagne chocs are also some of my favourites. yum. thank you for playing along!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you understand now. I think i did not find the chocolate for a few minutes after it was given to me ;-). They were amazing and this jester has a porcelain face, quite special. Thank you for being our host!
DeleteTammie, I believer this is one of my favorites! It is magical.
ReplyDeleteblessings,
