I have to confess... In spite of a commitment to myself to stay away from sweets after a month in France dieting on baguette and cheese, I can't stay away from these lemon chocolates from Kakawa, one of my favourite chocolate artisans in Sydney. I'm totally smitten with them!
They're made with milk chocolate ganache and fresh lemons from the orchard of David's [the co-owner] parents, in the Hunter Valley. And believe me, they're one of the most divine things I got to eat in a long time! As they melt in your mouth, you just feel transported in a leafy garden somewhere in Tuscany, drinking fresh lemonade...
You see, that's one of the reasons why I love what I'm doing so much... I feel so lucky. Every time I take clients on a new chocolate tour with Mytinerary (and the Sydney International Food Festival has been keeping me busy this month), I get to taste something new, discover new flavours, new single origin chocolate bars, new chocolate bonbons. I get to travel with my tastebuds and I'm loving it!
To visit Kakawa and stock up on these little lemon babies:
147 William St, Darlinghurst NSW 2010 (near corner Bourke St).
They sound divine!

Ooh la la lemon chocolates! I don't like orange chocolate but I do love lemon and passionfruit! LD

ah ah ah, thank you Lorraine! Will need to get some for you next time I'm there! And speaking of passionfruit, they also have delicious coffee & passionfruit truffles - really surprising!
