Had a very chocolately Easter Weekend thanks to Bodyworks Porirua, who ran a promotion giving clients specific benefits in exchange for Easter Eggs, which they then distributed to Hospitals in the Wellington area. Kinda ironic really LOL, but the kids definitely gave it the thumbs up! (Future clients may be!)

Lol Lux, it might backfire on them, I heard recently (somewhere) that chocolate is good for you Mind you it's got to be 70% cocoa content. If that equates to dark bittersweet choc, then I'm not interested, I'm sticking to milk chocolate. That dark variety is instant heartburn, which is definitely bad for me ;D ;D

I was heading for a chocolate-less Easter this year but then my lovely daughters found some diabetic chocolate yum, so much for the diet.
Nice deed for the kids

I can't remember curlywurlys but I do remember caramel tablets or as we kids called them "sabrinas" or titties. They had 6 raised "breast" shaped mounds of chocolate covered caramel. ;D

Gosh, I haven't seen a cury wurly around here for years, but I don't think I'll be traveling to Europe to get one! I had a friend who was stationed overseas and she rang me one day to beg me to send her a Whitakers peanut slab. I didn't. LOL
