A chocolatier sat alone in his chocolate shop holding a letter from his wife.
‘I am leaving you, my dear,’ it read. ‘I gave you my heart, but I did so in vain, for your heart belongs to chocolate and always will.’
Tears streamed down his face and fell into a large mixing bowl. Noticing this, he dipped his finger into the ganache and put the tear-salted mixture to his lips.
“Delicious,” he whimpered and then slowly stood up and trudged over to a small, blank chalkboard at the front of the shop. On it he wrote,
‘TODAY’S SPECIAL: CHOCOLATE TEARS.’
Love this! So apt ?
Sorry didn’t mean to write ? It was an emoji with a tear falling.
Sweet and savory little story!

Do we think that he will write to her and thank her for the new formula? Nope!
A nice accompaniment to a wee dram of “Writers’ Tears” after a fine meal.
