{ Dark CHOCOLATE 101 }

While those heart-shaped boxes of milky, cream-filled bonbons don’t qualify, recent studies show that pure dark chocolate is actually really, really good for you! That doesn’t mean you should stack a massive supply next to the remote control and settle in for the winter, but wouldn’t that be FUN!?!  But in moderation, you can enjoy the glorious taste of dark chocolate guilt-free.

LOOK FOR…

Appearance High-quality dark chocolate should have a high-gloss sheen, not a “bloomed” (blotchy, almost dusty) look.

Feel Because it starts to soften at about 97 degrees, good chocolate should melt in your hand.

Sound You should hear a solid snap when you crack off the corner of the bar, proof that it was tempered (or melted and cooled to the desired crystal structure) properly

Enjoy these irresistable selections…XO ~ Tresors De Luxe

( chocolate and jewelry…what more does a girl really need?!?)

Dark chocolate truffles rolled in bittersweet cocoa…

Rich in antioxidants, it satisfies the deepest darkest cravings…

{ Crystals }

There is something magical about crystals, polished gemstones and the way nature creates them!  Some say they carry an energy that soothes, and healers have been known to place them along chakras to open and expand blocked energies. For centuries, people have worn them as protection from evil or negative vibrations.  We LOVE them for many reasons and because they are all unique and unlike any other, like a snowflake! So, here are a few that we are O.I.L with (officially in love) in addition to a few  pieces from our online jewelry boutique @ www.tresorsdeluxe.com!

Have a treasure filled day XO ~ Tresors De Luxe

Evil Eye Jewelry!

Some people say that Evil Eye jewelry is unique, and that it possesses supernatural powers.  It absorbs the negative influences and energies surrounding its wearer and  protects him/her from the evil eye and its harmful consequences.  By  virtue of combating the evil intentions and energies, the Evil eye jewelry is able to achieve happiness, prosperity, professional success, true love, friendship, good health, and several such virtues that one needs to live a happy and contended life.

These days, you’ll see evil eye jewelry on celebrities like the Kardashians, Naomi Campbell, The Housewives of New York and the like…years ago we gave Sharon Osborne one of our pieces during a health scare, she was so gracious and kind! Thanks Sharon xx
