Carmella outdid herself more than ever ! I sent her a picture of:::
Godiva Tart http://www.godiva.com/recipes/recipe_zoom.aspx?id=517 and she e-mailed back and said she'll add it on to her to do list. Then lo and behold she said she's going to take on this challange and do this for Easter! and here is: Best Chocolate Easter Ever! Even if you don't celebrate Easter check this out: check her link: she just posted it:
ALL THINGS CHOCOLATE;
then she said:
Enough to make the sad Easter Bunny run off and hide in shame... lol
THANK YOU CARMELLA FOR SUCH A WONDERFUL TREAT!

Carmella~

What a beautiful and timely post with Easter around the corner! Thank you for all the lovely pictures and recipes. And I'm so excited to see how you altered the crusts into sweet from savory...and also how you shaped them without using saran wrap! Hip hip hooray!!! I was lovin it:D

Will definitely try a few of those to bring to our annual easter party celebration! Thanks for all the ideas.

I still love chocolate ....I used to only eat milk chocolate, and didn't care for dark chocolate. But now that I'm raw....raw chocolate is ummmm...divine!!!!
I'm so glad I don't have to shun this high magnesium food!!!

enjoyed gazing at the RAW willy wonka's choc. factory (carmella's house)LOL!

Carmella,
What a beautiful sight to wake up too--your latest writings--chocolate. I have to let the rest of the family here know about your chocolates so going to start a new link just for that reason.

Thanks angel. Wow, can I come over tomorrow?

This is truly amazing, but while you are there check out the rest of her goodies like pizza too.

Of course thanks to all the contributors sharing their recipes and pictures with her at her blog. You all make it happen. Carmella you are amazing.

I know there is a truffle thread but had to put my 2 cents in here to share so no one misses out.

Carmella RAWKS!

Oh wow. I woke up to another notification for "TSRK" and couldn't wait to see all the goodies Carmella had laid out for us. First, I must ask... Carmella, do you sleep? You JUST had a blog post on the first of the month, I don't know where you find the time!

I'm having issues with this new blog post. Which recipe do I try???? While I'm reading and scrolling down to the next recipe, this is how it plays in my head: Oh... mmm I'll try that one. Scroll to next, no.... I'll try that one etc to end of blog post. Thankfully I read it right after my morning smoothie so I am really full right now and not feeling for chocolate. Had I read the post first, I'm sure I'd be in the kitchen right now making a chocolate breakfast LOL. I really want to get some muffin pans to try out some tarts and quiche's.

Thanks Carmella for yet another wonderful contribution!

Carmella: Please Please post a short version of this (Tarts) in the Pictures only thread? It would be exciting for those viewing to see!
Especially so much 'chocolate' in different forms!

Thanks Again for Sharing this adventurous experiments with us. Joz

I have been wanting to tell you how much I enjoy your blog! I get excited whenever I see an e-mail alerting me to a new post. Great job...and thank you so much for sharing!

[domestic goddess]

Yes! I was drooling over those as well...:D
I tried to make the chocolates and just ended up with a big mess! Any secret to getting it right?

[Eilene]

Carmella...you are amazing. Fabulous post! I need Chocolate NOW!

Oh...I need to have an email sent to me to let me know of a new post on your blog.

[Carmella]

Wow! I am overwhelmed by all of your wonderful feedbacks...

Carolg is right, The Sunny Raw Kitchen would be a very diffrerent place indeed if it wasn't for you guys! This forum has been, and continues to be, such an inspiration.

You have my warmest thanks! And thank you, Alissa, for providing us with this raw food haven.


First, I must ask... Carmella, do you sleep? You JUST had a blog post on the first of the month, I don't know where you find the time!

I'm having issues with this new blog post. Which recipe do I try????

:D Ama, you're so funny!

I have to admit I did push a little harder than usual for this last post as I so wanted it out soon enough to give everyone time to prepare for Easter.

Somehow, it was 'meant to be' as it all flowed really well.

We just tried for the first time Cherie Soria's Turtles and OMG!

You know, I was a bit at a loss writing the post as words really fell short to describe how delectable all these chocolate goodies are.

There's no way around it; y'all will have to try and see for yourselves... (Bummer!:D )

Off to post a few pics on the Photo Thread...

[Veganforlife]

Very cool! I have some little molds I'm gonna use! Thanks!!!

I DIDN'T mean mold, I meant candy molds. Fingers type way too fast!!!

Carmella - I'm not gonna use mold and ruin this wonderful recipe! Honest to goodness! I had put I have some little mold - UGH!!!!

I HAVE CANDY MOLDS!!!!

[Veganforlife]

I made this to take w/me down to my dd's for this holiday and YUM-OH!
I made two batches and from these I made some plain, some with coconut, and some with walnuts in it. It melts in your mouth! Thanks!

[Carmella]

Hey VFL,

Ehhhhhh, which goodies are you talking about? lol Since you mentioned the 'molds' (he he), I'm thinking Sweetgoddess' Easter chocolate, right?

I made them with coconut and OMG. Isn't the texture just like the SAD version?

Raw RAWKS!!!

[carolg]

Carmella,
You got way to "much" time on your hands if you can still post here. Kidding of course. With no sleep you are busy UNcooking and then spend the rest of your waking hours posting.

I got a challenge now for you. Just starting a thread but all can join in.
