While on a recent visit to New York City, I had the opportunity to stop into my favorite grocery market extraordinaire, Dean & DeLuca. Here is one of my fabulous finds - The Orchard Chocolate Collection! Available only at Dean & DeLuca, this celebration of the autumn harvest is the delicious brainchild of Chocolat Moderne's Joan Coukos. Twelve heart-shaped chocolates are delicately hand-painted and filled with the flavors of orchard fruits, including red apple-almond marzipan, green apple caramel and Poire William pear caramel. These would make a beautiful statement set at the dessert table following an Autumn meal with family and friends.
