Golosa makes Blogalicious say “WOOOOOW!”
Sleek La Molina chocolate bars line one wall like oversized dominoes, chic, slim, and wrapped in black paper. Their chocolates are arranged inside two glass cases like precious gems, while a homemade red velvet cake gleams with temptation. No doubt this holiday season La Golosa is the place for after-dinner eye-f*cking over thick hot chocolate spiced with cinnamon and clove. And get a load of that chocolate cake with lavender buttercream.
