I have a MASSIVE chocolate craving just now and absolutely none in the house

[Lullabyloo]

I never crave chocolate....well hardly ever-all my secret stashes are gobbled.
Talk chocolate to me quickly...........

ummm, just ate ds's last chocolate Lindt reindeer...

Have you checked for hot chocolate, choc ice cream in the freezer, forgotten jar of nutella and cocopops? Is there not even any left over Baileys?

Have you not got some drinking chocolate or cocoa powder in the cupboard?
when I get a choc craving really bad and there is none in the house which there rarely is - I make a strong hot chocolate drink (really strong as in spoon nearly standing up in it!)

Oh that's very bad ...and something that would never happen in my house!

do you have cooking chocolate, or cake mixes with chocolate buttons or something? You must have some chocolate somewhere

echo what the others said - find some cocoa powder and make biscuits, hot choc something like that.

Otherwise you might have to go the sugar route with a jam sandwich or soemthing.

Good luck - I hate it when that happens - have even made the excuse of needing to fill the car with petrol just to go to the garage!

LOL have done the petrol station one before too!

Can't imagine having no chocolate in the house...

I have a seperate fridge just packed with the stuff!

Will virtual chocolate help? (and it's healthy - see the fruit!!!)

Smell vanilla apparently that stops the craving.

nope zilch anywhere & can't do petrol station dash as don't drive anymore.
No hot chocolate,certainly no ice-cream in freezer....and grrrrrrrrrrrrrr gave my only bar of lovely cooking chocolate to a friend having a cake crisis the other night
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH this is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!

phooey to vanillahad a large sniff from extract bottle -does not stop this craving-
goon torture me talk me through what does it for you in the chocolate department & I'll just sit here & drool.........sniff

p.s
should read go on -not goon

Have just scoffed a large box of chocolates and feel sick - you're better off without it.

d.h is a health/fitness fanatic(apart from booze that is)
Eating chocolate in front of him is asking for comments about wobbly bottoms & dimpled thighs etc.It's crummy.
Oh for a d.h into puddings instead of treadmills....dreamy sigh
p.s -the virtual chocolate is torture-thanks

Can I come & live in your house?
A fridge dedicated to chocolate?

I buy these and the tub fits nicely behind the bookcase and they are mouth size and easily sneaked in when no-one is looking. No dimpled thigh comments from my dh!

Yes really, - there has to be some pleasure in life!

cereal?

coffee with lots of milk and sugar?

cinamon toast?

alcohol?

I can't think of anything else - but you lady, need to get a secret stash!

Oh Dimpledthighs-
yes these are heaven aren't they?
Discovered these on a trip to Bluewater before Christmas.
Actually they were for a Christmas pressie but never got to see the wrapping paper

LOL at the list of chocolate substitudes, you can tell the addicts on here

i ate quite a lot of hotel chocs at nye's party yumm
i always have chocs in my house .. and after reading this have just had 8 ferrero rochers .. yumm

addict moi?
Nah-very rarely crave the stuff,but when I do I've simply gotta have some-like now
Why don't they do chocolate express deliveries for girls in need?
feel a business empire in the making....

Anyone discovered Artisan chocs?
Def my fav
Simply divine.........

oh, dimpledthighs - tried Hotel Choc stuff for the first time after long hours over their brochure - sadly disappointed - for me, the classic still has to be Lindt Extra Creamy

Lullabyloo - we're not making this any better for you are we?!

Toast and honey is a desparation substitute for me...? (toast MUST be white...)

can't even do that- white anything is a no no in this house.
I'm a 70% dark choc kinda girl though so toast n honey doesn't really hit the mark.
I'm going shopping first thing tomorrow......
