Customer Reviews
I'm in the minority, but... I really didn't like these truffles. (ducking and running) To me, a truffle, is creamy and almost fluffy, with a little air as part of the filling in the middle, only a tiny bit firmer than chocolate ganache'. It also has a touch of sweetness, nothing overbearing, but not that mouthfeel and pucker of unsweetened bitter chocolate. I was gravely disappointed. These truffles were like miniature hockey pucks, dusted in so much cocoa powder that I dusted the front of my shirt (nothing new) when I went to eat them. I was all set to go and devour when the package arrived, but ugh. I ended up storing these in the freezer, where I'll use them in a nice brownie or other chocolate dessert. Otherwise, they'll end up getting pitched when I clean the freezer.
Get Fat and Die Happy... Indulge! Great chocolate at a great price. Got these as a birthday gift and they are truly memorable. Put these on your "Bucket List"
Wonderful chocolate, but... I love chocolate, LOVE IT! In all forms and types, and a long time ago I found truffles that looked and tasted just like these! From other reviews I have learned that this is the same type of truffle sold under different names. I was so happy to find the truffles I've been looking for for YEARS. However, I was stripped to nothing because of their shipping prices. I got two boxes, and the shipping was half again the cost of the item itself! Now, for a chocolate lover lusting for the truffles she had so long ago, the money was worth it. But in retrospect, I find this a cheap and tacky way to earn your money. The truffles cost a good bit, so I don't understand why would they make the shipping so darned high! And it's not even GOOD shipping, its the 3-5 day 'We'll get to it later...' shipping. And it took them 4 days to get the boxes out the door. I will not be buying my truffles from this buyer again. Or probably anything, for that matter. Edit: 5 days and they haven't shipped them yet...

Big Hit! I gave the '50s basket to my brother for Christmas and I wish you could have seen the look on his face when he opened the present! Sheer delight! What do you give the person who has everything?? This is it! The kids were even excited. They had not seen or heard of so many of the candies included in the box. Of course, my brother removed some of his favorites and put them in his own secret stash but there was plenty for everyone to have a free-for-all. It was a lot of fun for everyone!

Product Description
A recent Japanese research shows that daily consumption of Oolong tea (3-4 cups) is effective in the control of body weight. Oolong tea is a partially-fermented tea, beween green tea (unfermented) and black tea (fermented). When brewed, it turns to a golden amber and the flavor to a complex, invigorating cup.


Customer Reviews
Fantastic tea I was highly skeptical of the reports that said that Oolong tea helps with weight loss, but now I'm a believer. Eating healthier and eating less was helping me, but once I started drinking a cup or two of this tea each day I did notice that the weight loss was a little faster. I love this tea.
This tea is too weak I've been drinking Oolong tea several years and I was very disappointed in this brand of tea. The flavor is weak and the smoky essence is not detectable.
great tea This tea is very good. I don't know if the weight loss thing is true, but this tea is well worth buying, just for the taste.
