Couture Chocolate
Choco Choco House's miniature chocolate renditions of fashionable bags are the creation of Aliya Wali. Wali, a self-taught pastry chef, spent three years making desserts at her parents' restaurant, Dali, in Somerville, MA. After taking a 10-year hiatus from confectionary to run her own toy business, Wali resolved to return to the world of sweets. She began by experimenting with chocolate, but it wasn't until she saw an alligator pattern in a chocolate catalog that she got her big idea - chocolate handbags -to fuse two of her favorite things.
Less than one year later, Wali's Choco Choco House is turning out an entire line of handmade miniature chocolate handbags that make stylish and delicious gifts for the sweet-toothed and the fashion-conscious. Each chic chocolate creation is inspired by an actual high-fashion handbag. From her Burberry plaid knockoff Cappuccino Bag to her Pravda House of Prada nod, Wali knows her chocolate and her fashion.
Just like their high fashion counterparts, Choco Choco House maintains exclusivity; solid chocolate versions are available at Henri Bendel, but the full confection collection is available only through the Choco Choco House website.
Choco Choco House's couture chocolate shop is located at 561 Windsor Street in Somerville, MA 02143; www.chocochocohouse.com; 617-718-0946.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.
How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.
If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
