is the online retail source for Equal Exchange products which are also available from many fundraising and religious organizations (my church sells these after services). I am not a coffee person and while I have bought some tea, I haven't yet tried it. I can, however, say the chocolate is quite good. The chocolate products are certified Fair Trade and organic for those who have those preferences. DH is enjoying the Very Dark chocolate and I like the milk with hazelnuts (smoothly blended, no chunks). The candy bars are sold only by the case or bag (minis) online and only from US fall-spring (so not available now), but a true chocoholic will enjoy them. The hot cocoa and baking cocoa are available year-round.Not Needlework Topic: Another chocolate to consider

I`ll be suffering from withdrawal symptoms while the weather`s hot. One of our friends on here and I have been doing chocolate swaps during the cooler months - but we can`t do it again until Autumn - things are starting to melt! I have two large packages in the fridge and will have to eke it out! It`s been such fun, though. John says it reminds him of when he was a kid during the war and used to receive parcels of goodies from "The People of America" - GREATLY appreciated at that time of food and sweets rationing.
Marks and Spencer do a range of Fair Trade chocolate - and there`s a Thorntons shop almost next door to it! Thorntons also do icecreams in chocolate lined cones during the summer.
