Have you heard the good news about dark chocolate?
Summarised from Ease Easter Guilt": go for dark chocolate - Nicola Conville, Sunday Telegraph 24/3/13
Easter promises calorific overindulgence but according to studies by researchers from Monash University, the choice of dark chocolate offers significant health benefits, including improvement of blood flow and a "feel good" factor.
It's a healthier option, especially since with a 70 per cent cocoa component, dark chocolate generally contains less added sugar and fat than milk chocolate, with other studies stressing it be part of a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise.
Sounds like great news to me!
Happy Easter to you all.

ps - in 'Mosman Meanders & foreshore flavours' on Page 90, Coco Chocolate - Sydney Chocolate School, at Middle Head, have submitted a fabulous recipe for Chilli chocolate figs. These are to die for.
