Chocolate Frogs are an iconic snack from the Harry Potter books. They also are a great souvenir from the Wizard World of Harry Potter in Orlando, FL. I was a little worried as I had two issues when purchasing these. Firstly, it was August, and hot, and I worried that the chocolate would melt. The other issue is that you don’t know what card you are going to get. At the time there were just 4 cards, one for each founder. The first few boxes I got were for Salazar Slytherin. I really had hoped to get at least the Ravenclaw founder but didn’t luck out until I bought one last box at the airport store!
A word of warning about the chocolate though, its poor quality, somewhat plasticy type of chocolate. And the frog is a solid block of it. I could barely eat that much of it, OR even cut it into smaller pieces. Â One of them lived in my freezer for years before I remember and ended up throwing it out. In the photo above I also have a keychain of a chocolate frog to show you a bit what it looked like.
You could say I have Harry Potter on the mind. I just decided that a Walt Disney World and Harry Potter trip might be in order for 2016!
Edit 2017: I did make it back in 2016! And I got all of the Founders cards!
