Flaunt It! Monday: CoCo-Zen

Good Monday Morning! It’s way too early, had to get the hubby out the door by 5am.  It’s supposed to be 81 degrees today, kids we’re playing in about 5 inches of snow last week! Crazy! Oh well…

How about we start the week with some choclate? Coco-Zen : Experience Oneness with Choclate, sells Fair Trade Chocolate Truffles and body treats.  I have yet to meet a choclate I don’t like, so when I found Joyce on Twitter, I just had to ask if she wanted to sponsor Flaunt It! Monday. I was so giddy when she agreed!!

A little about these Fair Trade Chocolates before I dig in (from the site):

Our truffles are made only from organic and Fair Trade Certified™ chocolate. By choosing Fair Trade, you are directly supporting a better life for farmers and their families through fair prices, direct trade, community development, and environmental stewardship.

Chocolate that erases the guilt of eating by helping the environment. That ROCKS!

So, Joyce sent the orange and Chai 2 tier tin and the Truffles-to-Go signature sampler. I must mention the packaging these came in.  The box that arrived was completely recycled even down to the shredded cardboard for filling.  The tins the chocolates come in are very attractive and completely reusable.

These chocolates are very unique. They are not very sweet, the flavors really come through perfectly. I feel so grown up to even say these are very sophisticated truffles.  My favorite was the Chocolate Chai Spice, even over the Mint Bliss and I’m normally all about the chocolate mint anything! My kids were not impressed, but that’s a good thing, Troy and I got to appreciate them in their entirety.  Yes, my husband loved them as well, I threatened to make him write this review if he didn’t leave me any to try!

My slogan is “growing small business green” and Coco-Zen fit the mold perfectly.  Companies often use chocolates as corporate gifts – for both customers or clients as well as employees and choosing to go with Fair Trade & organic chocolates is a great way to show their “eco-ness” in gift giving.
