Ilze,
Thank you for you delicious chocolates. We’ve been treating ourselves to them after Sunday lunch for the past few weeks – absolutely wonderful! Your chocolate is better than anything else I have ever tasted. Mrs R – London
Thank you for organising all the chocolate boxes – they look lovely! Mrs S – Ruislip
Hi there,
I ordered the chocolates for my sister and I know she got them and like them.... I had previously bought some from Windsor Farmers market and thought they were really good! Thank you. Miss H Cambridge
Thank you for checking. The chocolates arrived very quickly and my sister phoned to say they looked stunning - she wouldn't eat one till she had taken a photo. She called me yesterday to say thay had just finished the box and they really enjoyed them. I am delighted that it was so easy to send something special. Mrs Morris, Peterborough
Every bite of Ilze’s chocolates tastes delicious; one can truly taste the love and dedication that went into making these delicacies. I've not tasted any better chocolates anywhere. The packaging is elegant and the quotation from Nehemiah is inspiring. Eating it is all in all a heavenly experience. Linda, Bedfordshire
"I've never been a chocolate fan - I always felt guilty about eating this supposedly "fattening", much-loved food. Apart from that I simply didn't like the overwhelming sweetness of most chocolates available. Well - not any more! Since I tasted Ilze's exquisite chocolates I'm a "newborn chocoholic". I wasn't satisfied with just one or two of these little wonders so after a little research I was delighted and relieved to find that chocolate is only figuratively "to die for".
Chocolates can be good for you. It contains antioxidants that help block the bad LDL cholesterol that clogs arteries. According to nutritionists at the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, eating dark choc can actually help protect you against cancer and other diseases because of the catechins it contains.
Chocolate does contain caffeine, but even dark chocolates contains a tenth to a third of the caffeine found in coffee.
So is chocolate fattening? NOT in moderation. In Switzerland, where the consumption of chocolate is twice that of the United States, the obesity rate is half as high. So there's more to it than chocolates!
It's been said that if choc melts in your hands, you're eating it too slowly. Certainly true of ILZE'S CHOCOLAT - it will tempt not only the palate of the true connoisseur!
With love to all chocolate lovers!” Bertha Nel
“I have never ever tasted chocolates quite so delicious as yours AND believe me I have had some of the supposed best. I truly meant it, they were beautiful and a real “pleasure experience”. You really have a “gift”. Mrs S Winter, London
