Godiva Chocolixir



What's the first thing that comes into my mind when i hear GODIVA???




it's a delicious and high end brand of chocolates, which therefore, i need to keep myself away from... coz aside from the calories that comes with it, the ridiculous price just really sends me some meters away...

i have been seeing the Godiva store in Yokohama for quite a long time already.. 
but i wasn't brave enough to check because of the above reasons.. 
but there was this one time i was with a friend, after burning some calories from playing badminton, 
we passed by the area and noticed a number of Japanese lining up at the Godiva store.. 
we got curious and checked.. 

and we discovered the Godiva Chocolixir... 

it's a frozen drink made up of Godiva Chocolate with Whipping Cream! 
talk about 660 calories per serving.. 
but can you blame us?? 
it's freaking 37 degrees outside.. 
and that's more than enough reason for us to try it.. 


It comes in 5 flavors:
1. Dark Chocolate Raspberry
2. Dark Chocolate Decadence
3. Milk Chocolate Caramel
4. Milk Chocolate Decadence
5. White Chocolate Raspberry

and this summer they are gonna have the chocobanana! yummm!


but in the mean time, i tried the Milk Chocolate Caramel..


It was really heavenly.. 
very creamy... 
it's like eating the chocolate in every sip..
not that pricey for 550 JPY (approx..i forgot the actual price, blame it on the anaesthesia...)
and it's very soothing for the hot summer days here in Japan!




i will definitely go back and try the other flavors!!!

PLUS

these ice cream truffles looks promising!

@hangingbridge: i hope so too! :)

@ayen: i'm actually not into sweets a lot, so chocolates are not in my cravings.. pero dito sa Japan i get to enjoy chocolates kasi hindi matamis.. even cakes and ice creams, i can eat a lot without feeling nauumay sa tamis.. :)

I love chocolates! May nagdala sa office ng Godiva chocolates ang sarap! I love chocolates from Japan too. Most taste like dark chocolate.
