Chocolate with banana filling? I’ve had banoffee pies so the taste of chocolate and banana combined offers no surprises. Same could be said for orange. There are many chocolate brands that offer orange flavored chocolate? But watermelon? That is unusual indeed! Even though watermelon is often offered in a fruit fondue I must confess I have never tried it because, well … it’s water. In a fruit. With chocolate. So it’s watered down chocolate, right? I couldn’t be more wrong! And Villa del Conte challenges us to experiment with their fruit and chocolate summer offerings.
Villa del Conte brings summer into our tastebuds
Savor the taste of summer as Villa del Conte brings you its fruit-flavored chocolates! Go bananas this sunny season with Villa Del Conte’s milk chocolate with banana cream filling; beat the heat as you bite the refreshing milk chocolate with watermelon cream filling; and freshen up with the taste of citrusy dark chocolate with orange cream filling.
Enjoy these sweet treats at Villa del Conte stores at Greenbelt 5, Century City Mall, Shangri-la Mall, SM Megamall, Resorts World, Alabang Town Center, and Robinson’s Magnolia.
For bulk orders, please contact 893-2575 or 621-6101.
