The Christmas Chocolate Box

My son, Gian-Patrick made this amazing chocolate box for me!

The snow flakes are chocolate.

All those wonderful candy's were made by him...

Can you believe those eggs?

My husband, Chris Maggio the professional photographer of the family
documented Gian's creative genius.

For those of you that do not know our son, Gian-Patrick is a first year pastry student
attending Johnson & Wales in Providence, Rhode Island.
He arrived home Thursday for the holidays. He drove home with a friend carrying the chocolate box gingerly on his lap for the entire six hour drive.
Gian made me try a small chocolate filled with caramel that night, it melted in my mouth.
I can't bring myself to try the other pieces its just to lovely.
Thank you Gian,
