As
we slide into the holiday season, it seems like a great time to offer
a shopping guide. Every website included in this guide has a special
place in CocoaJava.com's heart, each for their own special reason.
This is my small way of saying a 'thank you' to them and encouraging
you to check out what each site has to offer.
Art.com
Art.com, Inc. opened its virtual doors in 1995, and over
that time, has helped over 4 million customers decorate their walls from
the world’s large collection of art imagery. New
Orleans Ice Cream Co.
Ice cream hand crafted in the Crescent City using all natural flavors and the
very freshest local ingredients. Choco
Choco House
Makers of truffles - in the shape of handbags! Hard to describe, but once you
visit the site I think you'll agree that these are very cute. An ideal gift for
the more fashion-aware folk in your life. They can be purchased in many flavors,
including Grand Marnier, Champagne and Cherry Milk.
Chocolate
Cheese
Invented at Michigan State University, this is real cheese and real chocolate
blended together. Ms. CocoaJava has tasted this product, and proclaims it very
nice - rather a lot like fudge!
The
Tasty Show
Chocolate everything! Interviews, reviews, tastings, events, information, and
more! Don't miss the Chocolate Tasting Kit for 2.
The

friends have visited!) This company provides an extensive amount of molded chocolates
for any need or occasion, and can ship year-round.

covered espresso beans and other goodies.

to a level that brings out the best aspects of the coffee bean, and shipping
them to you, the customer, immediately.
Jeremiah's
Pick
This San Francisco roaster uses high quality Arabica beans. For something a little
different, try their Chocatal Coffee, which is a blend of coffee beans and cocoa
nibs, for a coffee/chocolate blend that's smooth and flavorful.

Decaf French Roast, Whole Bean French Roast and Premium Ground French

The
Witches Brew
A pagan run cafe in
Auburn, NY. Also sells herbs, lotions and books. Look for bumper stickers,
rainbow products and other support items for the gay community (proceeds
go to the Unitarian Church's Auburn Pride Celebration). Seasonal and regular
coffees are available, and also "The Witches Brew", which is
more of a robust blend sure enough to get you flying, (on a broom if you
will). Also the Kitchen Witch is always working hard baking sweets to make
your mouth water. There is also a wonderful lunch menu with paninis, sandwiches,
salads and soups. "Come on down to the Witches Brew and sit for a
'spell'!"

coffee sites on the web, and a marvelous way to soak up some great news and
information.

in a cup…

renowned mad scienticians Brendan and Wayland, begin an experiment each week,
infusing vodka with a new flavor. (CocoaJava would like to note that both chocolate and coffee vodkas have
been created.)
Coffee
Snob's Cold Drip Coffee Maker
This coffee
maker is gorgeous. It's an homage to the Victorian era - can't you just see Jules
Verne with one of these aboard the Nautilus? The glass pieces are beautifully
shaped, the metal bits add detail and sparkle, and the wood framework is as warm
and rich as the cup of coffee you're anticipating...
