Miel Patisserie and its fabulous chocolates
Phillyfoodie has been more like Phillygermie for a while now, but after weeks of illness, we’ve all pulled through unscathed. bda brought me and Bon Bon some bon bons for taking such good care of him.
Miel Patisserie has produced some of my favorite chocolates in the city for years now. They are just the right size for two to three nibbles, with silky smoth ganaches, and a nice selection of flavors.
One of my usual favorites is the cinnamon, which has the spice both nicely infused in the ganache, and sprinkled on top. This selection had a peanut butter praline, which was a rich man’s Snickers Cruncher (in a good way.) And, if you’re a milk chocolate fan (i.e. you have yet to see the light), they typically have as many choices in milk as they have in dark.
Like all fine chocolates, they are meant to be savored, not saved. At least, that’s what I tell myself when I polish the box off in a couple of days. Thanks, sweetie!
