My eyes just about bulged out of my head when I got the mail yesterday.
Reader Kristen sent me these:
Yes. I know. I almost died too.
Kristen told me they lasted her about a week. Um, excuse me… a week? These are never going to last that long. They taste even better than they look. And I am a chocolate snob! I am obsessed. Has anyone else ever tasted these or seen them? I need to buy as many boxes as I can.
Pingback: Cake Batter Chocolates
I’m Jessica and this is where I share my stuff. You will find a balance of healthy recipes, comfort food and indulgent desserts.
I am madly, passionately, inexplicably in love with food. Bacon makes me beam. Chocolate makes me shout from the rooftops with joy. Vegetables and I are the best of frenemies. My perfect world would include none of them.

I’m so happy to have found this website, because I no longer feel any shame in my cake batter (or cookie batter, or muffin batter…) addiction.
The chocolates are from Macy’s! I purchased them at the Macy’s on State Street in Chicago, but I’ve never been to a Macy’s without a Frango counter.
I hope they are ready for all the How Sweet readers to storm their stores in search of limited edition cake batter chocolates!

Ok I purchased these tonight thanks to Jessica! They are absolutely divine. I got them at the Macy’s on State Street, Chicago. I have a contact who works there in the candy department as you can do a purchase/ship over the phone…her name is Valerie and you can reach her directly at the store at 312-781-4658. They have S’mores limited edition as well.

Oh my goodness! I need to go to Macy’s ASAP!

I’ve never heard or seen these before… that box represents all childhood favorites.. cake batter… did you lick the spoon too? I know I did, and I also ate most of the cookie dough batter before it made it into the oven… SWOON… too… I’d love to have a day like that again when calories don’t matter.

Oh my.. they look delicious. Definitely a rare find ;)

Aw man, I thought that read “Franco” chocolate. Like James Franco. I want James Franco chocolates.

I remember when you could only buy Frango chocolates at Marshall Fields and the dark chocolate mint were my go-to goodies. These look absolutely sinful and must be tried!
Reply
MUST FIND NOW. Yum!
Reply
I’ve definitely seen them at Macy’s. Check there.

Found them and they ARE delicious! I got the box that has 15 pieces in it, and it was on sale from $9 down to $6.30. SCORE!
Reply
just think about how FABULOUS they would be frozen!!!!! can you look on the box and tell us the distributor???????????????

The funny thing is, there is barely any info on the box. They are from Macy’s, and by Frango.
I froze them yesterday – have to admit that I didn’t like them frozen! The inside gets so hard that it is impossible to bite into them. I almost broke my tooth. But it is good for portion control. ;)

i will just have to walk to macy’s on my lunch hour and see if i can find them.

I actually made something similar to these in the last few days. Mine are much bigger and don’t look as pretty but all I did was bake a cake mix then crumble it and mix with frosting then dip it into chocolate. I call mine cake balls. And they are delicious. The ones I’ve made are dark chocolate cream cheese, double chocolate peanut butter and double vanilla wwith sprinkles.

I make cake balls a lot too, but these are nothing like them. The inside is almost… firm and crunchy? It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced!
Reply
Elizabeth — March 16th, 2011 @ 12:05 pm
Nicki, everyone knows these are cake balls.
Reply
No way girl!!! You are so lucky!!!! I wonder if you could make these….. It would save you the trip to the store at 3am. ;)
Do you think you could come up with a recipe for these? :) I would love you for the rest of my life!!! :D
