点评:Finding this superb chocolate shop in the tiny village of Limerick, Maine was astonishing. The chocolates and caramels are the quality you'd find in NYC or Paris. The owner makes these artisan chocolates in her nearby test kitchen using fresh ingredients from local dairy farms and sugar houses. Not only are they decadent, they're beautifully designed. You can order them online, but it's a nice country drive of about 40 miles or so from the Portland area. I bought a box of 50 that I selected individually, plus a small box of Maine sea salt chocolate-covered caramels. It was only a few days until Valentine's Day when I went, so the shop was filled with customers. They also box their chocolates very tastefully and wrap them with satin ribbons and even enclose tiny cards that identify each chocolate you've bought. Classy!
