This is such a fun giveaway! The sea-salted caramels sound divine!
I tweeted about the giveaway as well. (AmberDWall)
Oh my – everything looks yummy! The chocolate chip gingerbread looks especially good. Thanks for the chance to win.
Wow! That all looks amazing! I’ve got gestational diabetes right now, but with the baby only 4 weeks away, the end is in sight and now I’m craving chocolate! 😉 I think the thing that looks the best to me right now is the peanut butter chocolate cups for putting in cookies! Yummy!
I posted about the giveaway on facebook!
I blogged about this giveaway over at http://myhoney-dolist.blogspot.com/2011/02/tonis-giving-away-chocolate.html.
HOLY COOOOW!!!!!!!!! They do parties! This would be SO awesome for Valentines day! I may be ordering anyways but I’m REALLY diggin the Chocolate Chip Gingerbread Cookie mix and the Cabernet Raspberry Fudge sauce! UGH…I HAVE to try this stuff! Thanks!
Well any chocolate is the best to me…my fav on the website is the chocolate dippers. I always use a fork, these would be wonderful!
this might be the the hardest decision i’ve ever had to make for a give away favorite! lol! 🙂 ..i’ll go for something different and say the chocolate-chipotle spiced nut cluster candies! 🙂
The sippable apple pie a la mode sounds amaaazing!
WOW! Thanks for an awesome giveaway opportunity. Yummy! I am drooling over Beth’s entire site, but I think the first thing I would try is the Double Chocolate Caramel Nut Clusters. Mmm!
Let me start by saying that was just cruel for you to make me go look at all the beautiful chocolate this late at night! Lol
I simply cannot choose one thing. The choco-toffee chip cookies look so yummy! Wash em down with a white chocolate smoothie…oh yum!
Wow!!! NOW I really NEED some chocolate. My favorite things are the Heart-Shaped Chocolate Fondue Kit and the Petite Chocolate Dessert Cups. YUM!!
The Sweet and Savory byndle looks amazing! Barbeue with chocolate, yum!
I posted a link on my blog over at I Burned the Brownies
Oooohh!!! Those divine dessert cups look amazing….. Sorry…. Drooling…. 😀 I think I just gained ten pounds…. Oh well… It would SOOO be worth it.
Yum, yum, YUM! I totally want this! And I am in the mood for the chocolate covered fruit, that’s for sure. Thanks for the chance to win!
Just linked to you on fb…
Loved to try the spatula sets and the color is pretty. And any of the yummy brownies
I just started following you yesterday and already I am loving the multitude of other blogs I have visited from your links. This one is amazing. Who can resist chocolate? I love chocolate covered fruit and the fondue looks delicious. Thanks for the fun opportunity.
OK well making us choose one things that sounds good is simply not fair…haha!!! The chocolate toffee cookie mix sounds fabulous but if I have to choose just one it would be SEA-SALTED CARAMELS AND CHOCOLATE CHIPOTLE-SPICED NUT CLUSTERS!!! Toni thank you for sharing such great web-sites and companies…I didn’t know they existed!
The hot cocoa mug desserts sound yummy! I follow you on fb too. Love your blog!! You have really inspired me to re organize my home. 🙂
Seriously, do I have to pick something? LOL How about ALL of it – I would click on tab and say “oh, that looks goods” and than I would look at another page and say, “Wait that looks good”. I liked the dessert cups and the cookie mixes, and the truffles . . .ect ect. I love th look of the gift basket . . it makes me rethink in kitchen colors!
Never knew they did parties! The chocolate mousse sounds divine! Great giveaway!
Oh. My. Goodness. If my husband sees that I found this chocolate heaven website, I’m in trouble!!! What was my favorite? Well, anything mousse. Anything Chai. Anything smoothie. There’s a half pound block of white chocolate!! (Would it be offensive if I didn’t use it in cooking, but just gnawed on it myself?) And I’m pretty sure I saw chocolate salad dressing?!?!?!! Amazing. Simply amazing. THAT is heaven!
wow that was a hard choice they all look and sound delicious! i think the peanut butter and chocolate truffles were my favourite though.

I think my favorite thing would be the Peanut Butter Chocolate Shake Mix. I love anything with p.b. and chocolate. YUM!

If I can only pick one I would have to go with the PB & Chocolate Truffles. Talk about Yummy! Thank you so much for having this drawing 🙂
What a wonderful giveaway and thanks for sending me to Beth’d site. It was GREAT. I loved everything but the dessert cups look wonderful. I have been a follower for some time.
Wow, what an awesome giveaway! I am drooling over the artisan marshmallow collection and the Creme De Menthe Fudge Sauce/Cabernet Raspberry Fudge Sauce.
I would love the chocolate mousse. I took my daughter to the American Girl store last summer. They served chocolate mousse in these cute little sage green flower pots complete with a little flower. I bought a set to use at home but haven’t used them yet. This would be perfect!

Chocolatinis!!! YUMMY.
The Crème de Menthe Fudge sauce would make anything taste good!
It all looks very delicious. I think maybe the mousse mix – who knew there was a mix for it?? Or the PB and Chocolate truffles or maybe any of the white chocolate smoothies.
Ugh Chocolate! Me please please please!
OMG OMG OMG OMG. Anything that says ‘Instant Chocolate Gratification’ makes me get the shakes. Like a kid’s first trip to FAO in NYC. haha

Holy cow… Looks like I’m going to need to save up a little to get everything I want. For me, I totally want the chocolate chai tea, as well as the espresso beans, fruit and sea salt caramels. But I also want to get the sugar free chocolates for my grandma – she’s diabetic but has a big sweet tooth, so they sound like the perfect present for her!

All the chocolate bits sound amazing! I came over from Beth’s Blog and I’m also a follower 🙂
Just checked out her site… was drooling all over the keyboard … Chocolate-Covered Graham Crackers sound yummy ..
Thanks— your blog follower
I think my seven sons would be nuts about the chocolate covered almonds and cashews. But for me, it would be the girls night out kit.
Maybe not delicious, but the chocolate dipper tools are a brilliant idea and would help me make my delicious chocolate truffles that I make every year.
Milk Chocolate covered Cashews ALL THE WAY! Mmmm Mmmm Good 😀
Wow! What a hard choice… The dark chocolate mint baking bits look like that would be really good in some cookies.
oh it was so hard to pick one, they all looked delish, but as a chocolate lover (wait everything was chocolate heheh) I would have to say the chocolate baking mix… i like it that I can have the option to make a cake, cupcake, cookies or even brownies i’m sure…
Just facebooked her fabulous CHOCOLATE website!
Chardonnay wine brittle with carmelized cocoa nibs? OMG!
I would take the petite chocolate dessert cups, but my mouth is watering from all the items.
Oh, I love this giveaway, and I would LOVE to recieve that recipe card book. I have so many great meals that I need to mark down and organize into one book.
I am a follower and I would love to eat the Choc ice cream sammy!! YUM!!

oooh, mudslide chocolatini!
The sipping chocolate sound fabulous!
Ok I honestly didnt have to look further on the site when I saw the chocolate mousse intro.. It immediatly took me back to when I was a young lil girl when my momma worked 3 jobs to support five kids alone and one of those jobs was a waitress at a local mom and pop (we thought was fancy) resturant.. every so often she would bring home chocolate mousse for us to share.. that is something I would love to make memory with my kids… So I have to say its the Mousse starter kit..
OH MY sea salted carmels! Yes Please!
I think the sea salted caramels sound incredible. I am also tempted by the chocolate tempering unit, I love kitchen tools.
What a great giveaway!! I think the cocoanut chocolate chip smoothies look divine .. it is a big toss up between that and the chocolate mouse…It all looks delish!!!!! =)
Ok dokie Sista online… I have posted about the give a way… I hope it was ok that I just took what you had here about it.. and I linked it to your blog.. I have several online friends that I know of that are die hard chocolate feins… So hoepfully they will catch the post and be bop on over and visit your blog… 🙂
