Face it. Moms are special.

Moms can do anything. They can feed you until you're ready to burst. They can make you feel guilty for not calling. They can have boyfriends your age after they divorce your father while simultaneously making your shrink rich.

But we love them anyway. Which is why we are always trying to find the right gift for them.

Which brings me to my next point. Does she really want another box of the same old chocolate from the shop in the mall? Those chocolates all taste the same, and they were probably frozen, especially if they claim they are imported from France or some line like that.

Artisanal chocolate should not be frozen nor should it have additives that make it, ewwww, shelf stable. Good chocolate is made to be eaten soon, this is why Gaspare is a small-batch producer.

Back to mom. If she's not dating a guy your age then maybe she can have the next best thing. Introduce her to a Cougar Boy. Sort of a test drive, maybe that will get her to stop calling you ten times a day.

If she's the type of mom who prefers her evenings with less spice, maybe watching TV with her cat, send her Lengua de Gato, it's pure rich dark chocolate. Have a look, click the image over there on the right and see if it's right for her.

With best regards,
