Because of wine.woot, I now hate Thursdays. They are the new Mondays.
You might end up with a Balsmic riot on your hands here. I think this was the second most requested non-wine item throughout the Woot Off so that might be some consolation. I missed out on the first time around so I’ll probably give it a go this time.
Will these make it to me in time for Christmas? I think they would be perfect for the special someone, but only if they will be here on the right day.
These were delicious. In for three more.
can someone please explain to me the deal with salt on chocolate? i seem to be seeing more of this recently and i think it’s nasty but apparently it has become very popular.
i did see the little “sweet and salty” thing in the write-up but that doesn’t really explain anything
We ordered these last time and they were AMAZING! Damn the diet, I’m in!
Lot of good info at this previous sale.
Some of the most useful tidbits:
Staff quote: “You have a good 120 days to find the perfect person to gift these to…and if the perfect person doesn’t happen by, you will still be able to enjoy them for another 30 days all by your lonesome!”
Staff quote: “We use Guittard Chocolate for these super yummy salted caramels. Guittard blends beans from Madagascar to Ecuador. The milk chocolate is a 38% cocoa, and the dark chocolate is a 62% cocoa.”
Other useful info:
The fridge is the worst place to store these due to moisture and odors. Make sure to have them delivered to a location that the package can be accepted as opposed to being left outside in the sun. Room temp is fine for these.
MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!!
Been scouring the Wine Woot off’s since last offering.
IN FOR 3!!! Joyously. People, they are that good.
Brandini Toffee, Le Caramel, and The Candy Basket - the three companies I blame for putting on weight.
These are delicious.
Where are the wine-filled truffles? 
I got these last time they were up and they were a HUGE HIT. Very smooth chocolate and caramel, and the salt was not too light, not too heavy. Very tasty.
It was a very sad day when these were gone last time around…
In for 3!
Perhaps a woot! staffer might be able to help with this question. The office is the best place for me to receive packages, and we’ll be closing after Dec 22. I know woot shipping can be slow. Any idea if 2 weeks is enough time?

ever had chocolate covered pretzels? it’s the same idea except take the pretzel away and leave the saltiness of it. Chocolate and salt are complimentary flavors.
Also, why you’ll hardly ever see a brownie recipe that you don’t add some salt.
A pound of the dark chocolate for me, a pound of the milk chocolate for Dad’s Christmas present…my first wine.woot purchase, too.
…hmm. It should probably be my second as well…

got it. and thanks for the quick reply.
it explains why i’m not a fan too, as im not big into choco covered pretzels.
It’s a shame these are packaged in 2LB boxes, two 1LB or 4 8OZ packages would be awesome for gift giving. Hmmm…
You could always find smaller containers to sort them into, a decorative tin or something like that. Shouldn’t be too difficult to find.
