Some more Wel­ling­ton artis­an products now all avail­able under one roof at Moore Wilson for your tast­ing pleas­ure, and more well deserved chocol­ate accol­ades for Bohemein fresh chocol­ates (long time pro­vider at MW).

Black devils(Detect­ive) Fix and (Phileas) Fogg (around the world in eighty days any­one?) pea­nut but­ter might provide the first ser­i­ous loc­al con­tender against Pic’s (we count Nel­son as part of the wider Wel­ling­ton region!) – just Aus­trali­an pea­nuts and a little Marl­bor­ough sea salt. Quite a rich fla­vour. You can also check out the nutri­tion­al value of each table­spoon­ful here.

Pre­vi­ously only avail­able to your door monthly on sub­scrip­tion, Wooden Spoon ice cream is now in the MW freez­ers.  Alas I was on foot and either had to carry it in my tummy (a little hard to share) or had planned MW as the last stop before home (no foresight), so I will have to return pre­pared soon.  The fla­vours catch­ing my eye were ANZAC bis­cuit, People’s Cof­fee Ca Phe Da (Viet­namese-style iced cof­fee) and Key Lime pie.

And lastly, but bestly, con­grat­u­la­tions to Bohemein chocol­ates for once again being the only Wel­ling­ton product in the Cuisine Artis­an top ten awards for 2014 (the run­ner up product no less) with their Little Black Dev­ils – chewy car­a­mel with freshly roas­ted cocoa nib top­ping.  Rated by the judges as well bal­anced in both tex­ture and fla­vour and not too sweet, this is a grand fol­low up to the 2012 top ten award for their Sea Salt Car­a­mel. Nicely done George.  Get thee to a Bohemein store or MW post haste.
