Pillsbury - pure chocolate decadence that comes in many different forms

11 June 2008

It could be said that for some people the essence of life is delicious sensual warm chocolate. Chocolate lovers have for centuries spent time savouring the delights chocolate has to offer. Pillsbury’s chocolate lovers campaign running across 180 Pick ‘n Pay hypermarkets and supermarkets is a campaign that every chocolate connoisseur should be on the look-out for. This winter, lovers can cuddle up with a variety of chocolate delights and desserts in front of the fireplace; feasting on some of Pillsbury’s great new recipe ideas.

From May 26th to July 7th, boxed shopper stoppers will be present in-store where consumers can obtain R 2,50 coupons for core Pillsbury Chocolate Baking Mixes and also take home a Chocolate Lovers 8-page recipe leaflet. This leaflet contains innovative and tasty ways of using Pillsbury baking mixes such as Pillsbury Triple Chocolate Brownie Mix, Pillsbury Triple Chocolate Cookie Mix and Pillsbury Rich Chocolate Cake Mix.

Special chocolate moments can also be created by making brownie goody bars with frosting and peanuts in the middle and turtle cake with caramel, pecans and chocolate. Noir bars, a seductive layered bar, will not disappoint and contains deep rich chocolate, dark roast coffee and cream cheese. With Pillsbury a little chocolate love goes a long way.
