Every sweet tooth rejoiced the moment that cocoa beans were found to have health benefits.

Nu, Wa, Ch and Hn mark their defining ingredients of nougat, wasabi, champagne and honey. No illustrations decorate Elixir Chocolate packaging, as its competitors typically have, for Rebecca Bibby boxed her sweets in what appear to be pharmacy-stamped bags and one-color pill packages.
