Back to School Must Have - Equal Exchange Hot Chocolate Review & Giveaway

One of the first things that happens when you go back to school are the fundraisers. I know it can get annoying when everyone you know with kids starts passing around the catalogs. I always have a hard time saying no and I buy things I don't need or want all the time.  Hopefully this year when the charity drives start up, some of them will be selling the high quality products available at Equal Exchange.  They offer gourmet foods and gifts that you'll be looking forward to getting.

For our review, we got to try out some of their hot chocolate. The organic hot chocolate was amazing, It was very rich and creamy and tastes like gourmet dark chocolate is just melting in your mouth. We also got to try out the spicy chocolate. This is a unique flavor combination of chocolate, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper that will warm you up inside and out on cold winter days.

Another unique thing about these products, in addition to their superior quality, is the fact that everything they sell is produced through the fair trade system. All the farmers are given a fair price for the products they work so hard to grow, no matter where they are in the world.  So whether you're getting coffee, cocoa, tea, or nuts you're getting the best there is to offer at prices that are fair to everyone.
