I'm such an "Oooo kool treats!" type of person.
Not only do I like to experience them, I like to offer them as gifts to others.
In deciding what to gift a few of my co-workers for their kindness during the passing of my grandmother, I wanted to give them something special - a unique sweet indulgence.
Bon Bon Bon, it is!
I visited the chocolatier's cute shop in the heart of Midtown Detroit after researching the mouthwatering offerings online on their website.
Upon arrival, I smiled at how simply cheerful the shop is.
The pink, red and white sort of "hand-drawn" theme informs you that you are about to experience something crafted from the heart.
I ordered trios of yummy goodness for each of us, yes, of course I bought some for myself! *haha*
The look of the little bon bons are deceiving. Because we have gotten used to eating cheap king sized candy bars, it's easy to forget that complete satisfaction can come in a two-bite handcrafted bon bon made from fresh, delicious, locally sourced ingredients.
The treats are to die for! Uniquely named and concocted these bon bons are definitely a treat for any special occasion, celebration or commemoration.
Flavors are otherworldly and include Creme Brulee, Killer Cereal, Lil Hottie, Lemon Bar None, to seasonal treats honoring the astrological season. I visited yesterday, during Pisces season. the Pisces is made with almond, poppy seed cake and rose royal icing. Whhhat! How amazing does that sound?
I also purchased Cherry Lux. I almost screamed when I saw the bon bon and read the name, which is the same as the name of my car!
Cherry Lux is crafted with Italian maraschino candied Michigan cherries, dark chocolate ganache, plump dried cherry, crunchy sugar, dark chocolate shell. How amazing does that sound?
The sweet woman who served me gave me a "Pick Me Up Pack", a cutely packaged individual Killer Cereal bon bon given to visitors who may be a little down or have experienced a bad day. Let me say, the sentiment was truly heartwarming and the candy made my senses smile! Killer Cereal is a decadent delight made with fruity cereal, bergamot and white chocolate. DELISH!
Bon Bon Bon is a must-try experience! Even the idea to craft the candy boxes from recycled cardboard and secure them with a sort of crafty washi tape is incredibly dope.
I highly recommend celebrating a special occasion or just treating your self by visiting one of their locations.
