Again, I defer the ‘Top Expat Knowledge Spot’ this week to Kat Mowbray, one of our excellent interns here at SAE. This feature should be enough to get you walking down Marcelo T. de Alvear to sample the produce for yourselves. Caroline Chocolat works alongside SAE every month as part of our events programme, giving a very tasty chocolate tasting talk in our Clubhouse. If you missed the last talk, be sure to keep an eye out in this newsletter to avoid missing the next. And now...... over to Kat......

Caroline Chocolat (Artesanal Chocolate Shop, exclusive to Buenos Aires)
Marcelo T. de Alvear 990
A luxurious boutique style chocolate shop awaits all chocolate fiends in Buenos Aires. Recently opened ´Caroline´s Chocolat´ shop displays beautiful artesanal chocolates, like no other to be found in the capital. The owner has a degree in chocolate making and trained in one of the most acclaimed cooking schools in France.

Having adventured her way around all the famed European chocolate countries, Caroline has gained the knowledge and skill to make the most authentic chocolate blocks and organic bon bons filled with all sorts of unusual mouth watering flavours. Using some of the world´s finest Venezuelan cocoa, the chocolates are high in cocoa and therefore antioxidants as well as other complex nutrients which increase the flow of blood to the brain... Excellent news for all the chocoholics out there.

The indulgent flavours are created to give your senses a chocolate awakening that they have never experienced before. Flavours range from banana mousse, delicate lavender or the famous and irresistable dulce de leche, along with many others. What makes the chocolates stand out, is that Caroline has added a very special touch by placing colorful designs on the chocolates too, which makes them look like jewels and almost too pretty to consume.

However, as soon as the rich cocoa aroma wafts gently into the air, her chocolates are too tempting to resist. Displayed in very feminine pink and white, boutique glossy boxes and bags, Caroline´s chocolates are the perfect gift and come at very reasonable prices considering each one is made by hand.

So don´t hesitate to pop on down for a delicious piece of chocolate heaven.
