Now that all the kiddos have their chocolate bunnies and peanut butter filled eggs, I think it’s high time the grown ups get their fair share of the good stuff! But first, let me tell you a little story about a chocolatier named Guy and his wife, Liliane.
Guy Foubert was a passionate Belgian chocolatier who made fabulous handmade chocolate truffles. Guy met and fell in love with a wonderful woman named Liliane. In the late 1950’s the two married and together, formed Guylian.The name of the company was formed by combining their names into Guy-lian or Guylian. Seriously, how sweet is that? Makes your heart melt like chocolate in your mouth, right? (pun intended)
I was 
recently given the pleasure of sampling a wonderful variety of Guylian Belgian Chocolates. And I do not use the word pleasure very often! Pleasure, heavenly, silky-smooth decadent, truffles. Grandpa went… wild. I had to laugh. Every time he took a bite, he actually closed his eyes and let out a little ‘mmmmmm’…. he had his own little love affair going on with those heavenly truffles! Ok, I admit it.. I may have had a bit too many myself to be considered a ‘taste’. And, because we have zero self control over here, we couldn’t even get all the samples they sent us in the photo. We ate them…
We do however, promise to make good on their offer of providing 1 Grandma Juice reader ALL the samples. Here’s what you’ll be getting:
- One "“ 22 piece box of Guylian Artisanal Belgian Original Chocolate Truffles

Better than that hollow bunny, right? Take a peek HERE and just look at the beautiful gift boxes they will be arriving in too!!
Now, because there’s such a beautiful love story behind these chocolates, and so much love and dedication goes into making each and every beautiful hand-crafted piece; I KNOW my Grandma Juice readers are going to be showing some serious love for Guylian! We’re going to say Thank You properly, right? It’s beyond delish… you must!
