Naron’s Chocolates.
Stubb’s BBQ Sauces: I tried the Sweet Heat and Hickory Bourbon. Both are good, but we preferred the latter. We had fun with these sauces at a recent barbeque. This company was an exhibitor at the summer DC Fancy Food Show.
Nueva Cocina‘s Black Beans & Rice: This mix was a hit at the same barbeque. I’ve mentioned their coconut rice mix previously (which comes in white and brown rice versions). This company was also an exhibitor at the summer DC Fancy Food Show.
Frontera’s Guacamole Mix: Just add avocado; it is a great product (from another exhibitor from the summer DC Fancy Food Show).
Naron American Chocolates: I picked up a box of these Baltimore treats at The Chocolate Mousse in DC as a gift. Instead of getting the remade assortment, I individually chose the components, including some chocolate almond bark (in both milk and dark chocolate varieties). You get a pound for $19, and the quality on these chocolates is excellent, so it is a good deal and a makes a great gift.
The Karen Mary Co.’s Chocolate-Covered Marshmallows.
Karen Mary Co.’s Chocolate Covered Marshmallows: Chocolate Mousse also carryies great local handmade Chocolate-Covered Vanilla Marshmallows With Caramel & Sea Salt by Karen Mary Co (in the other chocolate case). Should we tell Anthony at DLDGLG.com (or DCFüd’s Beer Writer, MLC) about these Beer Marshmallows? (We haven’t tried them.)
Although I wasn’t about to review the set that was sent to me (because all the lids were either missing or the incorrect size), T-Fal Ingenio does have an interesting concept, so Ill mention it. The items in this cookware set have lids and attachable handles, so can be put in the fridge (with leftovers).
Disclosure: From time to time, we are given free items, meals, or events.
