White, milk or dark; with figs, rum, dried fruit or nuts. There are over 80 varieties of chocolates made by master confectioner Salvatore D’Antonio at Vanilla in via Ferdinando Galiani, near theNaplesseafront. It is a magical place where goodness abounds, thanks to the finest ingredients and the family passion for a business that has been going strong since 1992 Like Tim Burton’s Chocolate factory, Vanilla attracts young and old but, instead of the bizarre Willy Wonka, guests are warmly welcomed by Salvatore’s delightful wife and daughter. [charme-gallery]«Our specialities include hazelnut and gianduia “cartridges” and chocolate liqueurs filled with limoncello, aniseed or coffee; not to mention the jars of Ciociocrema, a mouth-watering chocolate and hazelnut spread». Refined elegance and an attention to detail are the key features of all Vanilla confectionery, which can be specially packaged and matched with small novelties or larger gifts for particular celebrations and occasions. «At Christmas we prepare special gift baskets with our own panettone cakes, nougat, typical Christmas patisserie and exquisite place markers for the dinner table. At Epiphany, we have stockings and no end of goodies to fill them with, while St. Valentine’s day offers other specialities for lovers or friends, from chocolate hearts to miniature chocolates that can be decorated with names or dedications to that the thought is even sweeter».
