If the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, I would say that the way to a woman’s heart is through chocolate. There isn’t a woman I know who won’t happily accept chocolate as a gift. What’s better than chocolate? How about chocolate that comes with a message from God?
About H&S Candies
Heart and Soul Candies was founded on the premise that any pursuit that pushes the ceiling of excellence will earn the right to be heard. That is why Heart and Soul founder, Bill McGee, has been intent on developing a chocolate that rivals the various gourmet brands on the market, while also, intent on taking a unique position of delivering this excellent chocolate in creative packaging that conveys a scripture-based message worthy of being heard by all.
This Christmas, spread joy by giving your loved ones chocolate with purpose as they unwrap an inspirational message with each delicious bite. Give back with H&S chocolate as well because a portion of sales go to Samaritans Purse, a charity that provides spiritual and physical aid to victims of war, poverty, natural disaster, and disease.
The Review
When it came down to selecting who would eat which piece of Heart & Soul Candies’ Chocolate, it wasn’t too difficult. I’m partial to dark chocolate and my fellow tester was a milk chocolate eater. Fortunately, we had samples for each type of chocolate.
On the front of each package you could immediately see what makes H&S Candies’ Chocolate different than the other chocolates out there. My solid dark chocolate came with John 4:16 printed on the front, “And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.” The solid milk chocolate had 1 Corinthians 1:3 printed, “Grace and peace to you from God the father.” In addition to milk and dark chocolate, they also have milk chocolate peanut butter, milk chocolate almond, and dark chocolate mint – each with their own scriptures printed on the chocolates.
I am a believer of prayer and blessing your food. If you’re going to eat it, you might as well eat it unto the Lord. And with these scriptures wrapping the pieces of chocolate, it’s practically blessing them all the way from the factory to my home. (Do you think I could use the reasoning of “It’s blessing me” to help justify eating more? I must ponder this….)
The milk chocolate had a wonderful buttery smooth taste that melted away evenly in your mouth. The dark chocolate was just the right amount of bittersweet in a rich, deep chocolate taste. Some cheaper chocolates might taste a little grainy or manufactured, but H&S Candies’ Chocolate tasted like the real deal chocolate.
I love that not only does the Heart & Soul Candies vision and mission include scripture, but that they also put their money where their mouth is by donating a portion to charity. In addition to Samaritans Purse, they currently have boxes on sale that support American Heritage Girl Troops.
Heart & Soul Candies Chocolates certainly deliver a delectable dose of decadent chocolate (woot!) that is blessed with a little scripture to boot.
