Chocolate or lemon: which one is best?

Chocolate or lemon??
For now, since we could not have a final answer, 
we decided to keep them together, 
but we are open to suggestions!

Some of our fun suggested a Chocolate Limoncello.

How cool is that?!?

But how to make it happen, how to create a good recipe?

We are looking for a good limoncello recipe for start.

If you have a good, good, gooooood limoncello recipe
send it to us.

We are always generous with rewards!

Reviews on Baruzzo Chocolate: Tom Lewis & THE CAMBRIDGE WINE BLOGGER - @CambWineBlogger

A beautiful article about Baruzzo and the experience of chocolate 
Chocolate tasting with Baruzzo at Fine Wine Fair 2010 
by Tom Lewis
THE CAMBRIDGE WINE BLOGGER

I have written earlier about cheese being an artisan product and it sometimes seems that a whole range of products are jumping on the protected name of origin / artisan bandwagon. 

Baruzzo is on Twitter and Facebook

I'm all in favour of local, seasonal, organic free-range food, but I have to confess to some occasional cynicism about certain claims to the importance of origin; do cakes and tarts made in Bolton and Buxton really taste fundamentally different from those made just up the road Eccles and Bakewell ?

Baruzzo is on Twitter and Facebook
Two products about which I have been historically less than convinced are chocolate and coffee - I know there is good stuff and less good stuff, and I'd like to think I can tell the difference between the two - but once the beans for each have been roasted, ground and made into their finished products, is it really possible to discern minute differences between them as you can with wines from a handful of villages on the Côte-d'Or ?

Actually, as Raffaella Baruzzo explained in her Master Class talk at the Fine Wine Fair, it is - you just need a bit of guidance. Rafaela is originally from Italy, but first came to the UK 12 years ago, spending a few years in South America in between becoming an expert in all things chocolate.

What is Real Food Festival? PART 2: Info and reduced tickets! Voucher Code: RFF76

The Real Food Festival is addressing these issues head-on by suggesting an alternative to the current, industrialised systems of agriculture, food manufacture and distribution. With an existing food system that has evolved to be a generator of profits rather than a system to feed people, the Real Food Festival promotes a different approach that aims to feed people good, seasonal, nutritionally-dense food and drink that has been produced in a sustainable and ethical way.

There is a growing desire to learn more about the provenance of our food and The Real Food Festival is the perfect place to connect with over 400 producers of some of the most wonderful food and drink you will find anywhere. By tapping into this alternative system of more localised food production and by increasing our consumption of more traditional, seasonal and nutritionally-dense food we can enjoy a host of benefits ranging from health, through to benefits for the environment, animal welfare, bio-diversity and the simple basic pleasure of enjoying delicious wholesome food.

Our simple idea is to re-connect people back to where their food comes from and to promote the idea of buying directly from the people who actually produce our food.

This is increasingly important as recognition grows that ‘business as usual’ is not an option as far as food production is concerned and that the major issues of climate change, population growth, water scarcity and peak oil mean that food security is now firmly on the agenda at the highest governmental levels.
