No #HolidayTreat More Scrumptious than #FerreroRocher or #FerreroRaphaello or #FerreroRondnoir @FerreroNAcorp @FerreroYPS | #Ferrero #Rocher #Raphaello #Rondnoir
In a small container in my kitchen, I keep 'my morning snacks' (I get a cookie or a piece of candy or a little pastry or something as a "reward" I give myself for waking up before 6 a.m.) From all the holiday-parties she goes to, my roommate got me a few Ferrero chocolates.

The bonbon Rocher (French for Rock, |Boulder) is named after a grotto in the Roman Catholic shrine of Lourdes.
The truffle Raffaello is probably named after #Raphael (Italian painter named after a healing-angel ... also the name of a ninja-turtle) "Healer of God."
The name of "the pearl of chocolates" (I haven't tried it yet, and the site doesn't ©/™/®-tag the name yet (as of 1/2/2022)), Rondnoir literally means Black (or Dark) |Circle.
I think these treats are sold under another company (the same one that sells tic-tacs & Kinder Bueno etc.), but the Ferrero treats ... each one is a hyper-complex MASTERPIECE! Sure, maybe they're 'mass-produced complexities' (like 'disco-balls'); but ...
