I’m a CHOCOHOLIC! To hell with calories as long as I get to taste these sweet flavor in my mouth. Studies show that eating chocolates bring several health benefits like reducing possibilities of stroke, protects your skin, mood booster and might even fight diabetes. Actually, I’m just creating some excuse on WHY people should not ban me from chocolates :P
I’m positively a certified sweet tooth. I love chocolates and anything sweet as long as it's not overly sweet. I don't know about you guys but I'm in a mood of blabbering about chocolates and since you’re in my blog, you don’t have any choice but to read (unless you decided to ignore my post T_T)
My top 5 faves would count Nestle's Crunch (I think we all know this), Ferrero Roacher, Meiji's Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk, Meiji's Melty Kiss and Kinder Bueno chocolate.

I first tasted Kinder’s chocolate way back when I was 10 years old. I remember those small egg-looking chocolates wrapped in their white and orange thin-foiled wrappers. The chocolates were inside this cute dog container. Upon eating the egg-choco, a toy is inside the choco. I loved it ever since. Of course, as I grew up, I loved Kinder Bueno more.
Coco-Trivia here: Kinder is under the Ferrero group. Surprise, surprise :D

Remember this chocolate from our childhood days? It's Meiji Apollo! Lolz~ I remember the times when I kept bugging my parents to buy me these chocolates.. It proves that Japanese influence runs in my blood ever since I was 5 years old.. Lolz!

Lolz.. If you loved this chocolate, you'll love Meiji's Melty Kiss and Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk. I got acquainted with these chocolates while I was in Hong Kong. The chocolates are packed individually. With these chocolates, forget M&M's "melt in your mouth not in your hands" tagline. This takes all the credits. Both chocolates have a distinct bitter powdery feel when you pop it into your mouth but as the powdery part dissolve.. Pure Bliss~
Here's Meiji Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk.. The white part is the biscuit part.. Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk are these poring (as in Ragnarok's poring) shaped chocolates are sweet and have this biscuit-like texture.. I'm not sure if Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk comes in different flavors since I bought the original flavored one..

Melty Kiss are small-box shaped chocolates that will literally melt in your mouths. Melty Kiss comes in three varieties (or the ones I’ve tasted came with 3 varities): Framboise (This is the first time I've encountered this flavor and it tasted like raspberry to me. Delicious and it comes with a sour aftertaste.), Chocolate (um.. Duh? Lolz!) and Green tea (this is my fave!)

I first bought Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk and Melty Kiss when we were at the "Okashi Land" (my sweets haven!) shop in HK (easy to find shop. It can be found in most MTR stations and malls) but Melty Kiss is now available in our local malls. As for Porte Hokkaido Whipped Milk, I wasn’t able to find a local shop which sells them. If you guys know of a shop that has Porte Hokkaido, I’d give you loads and loads of hugs and kisses! Lolz!
