Boon The Chocolate Experience – Darlinghurst, Sydney (4) + Home Booning
Milk Chocolate Frappe ($7)
Spring has sprung but the weather still induces a chocolate craving within me. My latest Boon visit had surprised me with new additions to their menu! They are now making Spanish Churros, which looked pretty decent from what I saw on the table next to us, and some cakes like this Tiramisu 
With the warming weather we decided to get a milk chocolate frappe for accompaniment.
Tiramisu
The soft spongy layers of cake contrasted beautifully with the creamy layers to dance coffee and chocolate flavours all throughout my mouth. I did find that the powder on top did get a bit too much but overall it was a very tasty cake and would match very nicely with a hot drink. The coffee flavour was not too intense so I was happy
Other previous visits had me walking out, the new proud owner of a bag of Swirlees…
and Chamallow Maisons.
w00t goodies to make during a chilly night ^^!
The Swirlee is a instant hot chocolate maker, just heat up some milk and stir away. It was fun to watch it slowly melt and reduce smaller and smaller until just the stick left. I did have a fear that the size of these Swirlees would result in dilute hot chocolate and it was pity that it was realized after the first sip. Their chocolate is undeniably smooth and velvety and of good quality but the portion of each Swirlee is a tad small for my liking (but could be also because I like my hot choc thick thick thick XD).
But no worries! Just add more chocolate ^^!
The slightly dilute chocolate was easily fixed with the addition of more chocolate flakes hee hee.
Next came the highlight of the drink though… the Chamallow Maison. A lovely drop of marshmallow dipped in luscious milk chocolate and topped off with some a sprinkling of a nutty praline. The chocolate melted beautifully, the marshmallow was fluffy and pillowy and the praline sticky with a extra burst of sweetness. These Chamallow Maisons stole the limelight of the hot chocolate, just need a cup of this in front a warm, glowing fire on a cold winter night (even better with a soft, white snow drifting down outside hee hee) Ahhh pure bliss ^^!
A second rezap to cause all that gooeyness!
Although the Swirlees had been a bit small I will definitely be buying the Chamallow Maisons again, mmm marshmallowy ^^!
Also check out my friend’s new blog ^^! A bit of life, laughs and of course food hee hee.

Oh my GOODNESS! Super chocolatey gooey rich yummy overload… how decadent! (and how no-fuss! Unlike my regular at-home-hot-choc which involves a knife & chopping board and pot and wooden spoon and other assorted appliances!)
