Williams-Sonoma Hot Chocolate and Handcrafted Marshmallows

It is not every day you see things go on sale at Williams-Sonoma, but at this moment there are four products that are a divine addition to your cupboard. Peppermint flavored hot Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Chocolate marshmallows, and vanilla marshmallows.

I am not sure why they are only available around the holidays because fine chocolate is something that can be savored year-round. When Joy got a package of this rich goodness for Christmas a few years ago, we tried to stretch the marshmallows further than the hot chocolate. It was a feeble attempt. When we ran out in late February, which was still cold in Phoenix and Vancouver, we were crushed when we found out that they were no longer selling the divinity.

Our eyes glazed over this past Thanksgiving when we saw the many stacks of marshmallows (The Cocoa was nowhere to be found, though.) The holidays passed in a blink of an eye and we found ourselves shopping for us again. When we entered W-S, I saw someone holding the brown tin of hot chocolate. I was on the prowl. I finally found what I was looking for, with this news on a laminated card nearby:

Holiday Sale: 50-75% off!

I looked at the marshmallows: 3.99 a box. Originally 19.00.

I looked at the hot chocolate: 14.99 a tin. Originally 19.50.

$40 of sugar later, I have restocked the cupboard with the best tasting hot chocolate and marshmallows available. If you have a Williams-Sonoma near you, go and get yourself a box and a tin. You will be glad you did.
