Hello and welcome to the Chocolate Newsletter information page! My name is Brandii, and I’m your new Chocolate Editor at Bella Online.

My love of chocolate began when cooking a chocolate cake with my Easy Bake Oven. Granted, that didn’t turn out so well, due to me leaving the spatula in the oven and a melting incident, but I digress. However, the joy of cooking with chocolate seed was planted!

Thankfully, my cooking skills have improved greatly over the years, and cooking with chocolate is my passion.

Each week, I send out a free newsletter that features the title, description and link to my latest weekly article. It’s an easy way to keep up with the Chocolate site at Bella Online! You’ll also find a link to current forum discussions on everything chocolate.

My chocolate newsletters will cover everything from easy, no bake chocolate recipes to creating homemade truffles and 7-layer chocolate cakes. Chocolate cake pops, chocolate pizza, chocolate drinks and even grilled chocolate sandwiches will make their way to the site and to your inbox.

My goal is to provide you with a chocolate recipe plus tips that you can use in future recipes of your own. Additionally, I’ll be taking you on tours of some worldwide chocolate tourists destinations, giving you tips for visiting and some chocolate history facts as well.

Chocolate makes a great gift, and I’ll cover some traditional chocolate gift giving ideas, as well as some out of the box chocolate gift ideas.

You’ll also find product reviews, including the Easy Bake Oven-yes, they still make it!
