Social Nation: A fun chocolate memory that is close to your heart

Chef Nehal: I was 12 years old and wanted to make this biscuit and chocolate cake.   I used the Lindt chocolate bar my sister was hiding from me and made the dessert. As soon as my sister tasted it, she figured out that there was some commotion.  However, turns out the biggest thing was the mess I made in the kitchen which my mother later made me clean up. If I could, I would do it all over again.

Chef Harssh: The most fun chocolate memory that’s close to my heart is when I got to eat a bar of sugar-free chocolate 3 years after my diabetes diagnosis. I devoured every minute bite of it and I ate one cube only! It was the best thing I’ve eaten. 

Social Nation: A 90s chocolate that you miss or holds a special place in your heart.

Chef Nehal: Coffee bite, my god does it even exist now? Nutties is also my favourite but I still buy it.

Chef Harssh:  I miss eating Melody toffee/chocolate very much.
