Win Green & Blacks Christmas Gifts
Several weeks ago I went to my first Christmas dinner, a banquet hosted by Green & Blacks and cooked by Micah Carr-Hill (who boasts the fabulous job title Head of Taste, and is in charge of product development) and William Leigh, Taste Assistant who works alongside Micah.
Together, they developed a menu inspired by the Green & Blacks chocolate range. Not every dish featured chocolate, but all were delicious.
To my surprise, one of my favourite elements was the lentils served with the quail. To say that I’m not a fan of lentils is an understatement, so the fact I loved these was quite a revelation. William did reel off the recipe to me, but I didn’t take it in, so will have to grill him on it further.
I also loved the tiny white chocolate disks covered with a pile of salty black caviar. An odd combination but it worked! The milk chocolate disks with dried potato powder reminded me of unconstructed maltesers!
And there were small chocolate-rimmed cups of Marmite broth which even some of Marmite-haters appreciated.
The other goal of the evening was to showcase some of their Christmas gift range, which as always, look very appealing.
Win!
So isn’t it lovely, that Green & Blacks have kindly offered some for me to share with readers of Kavey Eats?
And not just one prize, but three, so definitely lots of chocolate to go round!

Oooh! Another chocolate prize on offer – how can a chocoholic resist? I believe that the MILK chocolate comes with a purple wrapper.
I think it's Dark Chocolate Burnt Toffee.
Sort of depends on what you consider purple, doesn't it? I thought it was the sour cherry one!
Mmm chocolate
The answer is Cherry
BNM
Chocolate for me please, Kaveeeeeeeee :-)
I actually think the purple is dark burnt toffee – I guess it does depend on your perception!
I thought it was cherry too – which is btw my favourite. It's that sourness …. :)
Cadbury's.
Cadbury's is purple, innit?
*Muttley laugh*
I think it is raisin and hazelnut!
definately cherry. mmmm thats my favourite flavour G&B :)
I also think it's Dark Chocolate Burnt Toffee, the cherry to me is more burgundy… (posted by Catreia)

I would say raisin and hazelnut.

Mmmm, I love Green and Blacks chocolates. The Dark Chocolate Burnt Toffee bar has a purple wrapper.
I have also tweeted (@rugbylovingmum)
Raisin and Hazelnut looks more magenta to me which makes it a shade of pink, Cherry is more burgundy but definitely in the purples spectrum(although I adore the smell, I'm violently allergic to cherries and can't eat it) and Burnt Toffee is most definitely purple.
Colour may vary according to monitors to all of you who googled it.
I think the answer is Raisin and Hazelnut.

@philibaldi
this is harder than it looks! am going to plump for the burnt toffee bar (after much research, trying to find the bar in local shops!), but agree with other comments that cherry and raisin & hazlenut are also purpleish too!
have tweeted @maxineflossy
Ooh the new Burnt toffee flavour with crunchy bits of Yorkshire toffee in *mouth waters*
Burnt Toffee looks most purple but Cherry is a burgundy purple and Raisin and Hazelelnut a cerise purple.
Being slightly colour blind… This is really made for me! But I'd have to go for raisin and hazelnut.
raisin and hazelnut ?
Raisin and Hazlenut

Burnt Toffee is very purple, but cherry is also purplish.
Which flavour Green & Blacks bar comes in a purple wrapper?
I would say Cherry as the other one that could be purple is more a magenta pink.

Hiya, I think its cherry! Would love this prize! :)

Purple is a tricky colour to get right, but being a bit of a fan of the sour cherry, I would say that was purple.
I think it's dark chocolate cherry bet it's lovely as well

To cover all the options in the purple debate I'll say raisin and hazelnut, with cherry as my back-up answer! Ixx
I would say that the most purple one of all is the Burnt Toffee with Dark Chocolate. Sounds scrummy!
I would say its the Raisin and hazelnut bar. There are a few bars that look different shades of purple so not an easy choice!
