Whipped Hot Chocolate Bubble Bath & Tablescape

Tonight's tablescape starts bathside.

Perfect after a long hard day.

Along with the tablescape, I am including an indulgent recipe

for a Whipped Hot Chocolate Bubble Bath,

so my pink and chocolate colored hot chocolate plates

are perfect.  My sister-in-law gave me a set of

these fun plates several years ago.

Everything is placed on a stool right next to the hot bath

for convenience.

I have layered it with a pink large plate and a textured taupe

plate.  Only a long handled spoon is needed.

I just love the script in chocolate brown.

The script is written in dark chocolate, just like the delicious

morsel, ready to be eaten.  Don't you love that they are

now saying dark chocolate is healthy for you?

I had to tuck in a little orchid for that spa feeling.

Do I have a recipe for you!!! 

Now, let's get on to the recipe to go with this setting.

This chocolate recipe

 is one that is so fabulous and luxurious and

indulgent, and won't put any weight on your hips!

We love to watch HGTV, The Food Network and

The Travel Channel.  This little recipe has been

featured on several, whenever they cover Hershey,

Pennsylvania and the

Hershey Chocolate Factory

and Spa. 

You know my love for figuring out recipes.  I thought

I would give this one a try (even though it's their secret

formula) and although I haven't had the real deal, this

one is fabulous, inexpensive and easy.

This is the Whipped Chocolate Bubble Bath.

Start with a tubful of warm water. (My husband manufactures

these tubs so I am lucky enough to have a jetted tub.)

Now add 1 C. instant powdered milk powder.

The milk softens the skin and really makes

a fabulous bath.  It is rumored that Cleopatra took

milk baths!

Next add 1 C. Hershey's Cocoa powder. 

 The chocolate has antioxidants

that are good for the skin - but don't kid yourself, the real

reason to use this is the fabulous smell. 

This is aromatherapy at it's best.

Next add 1/4 C. bubble bath (you can also use shampoo if you

don't have any bubble bath on hand.)

Turn the jets on if you have a jetted tub.  If you don't have

jets, you will want to add all of the ingredients while the

water is running to fill the tub to mix everything and to create

the bubbles.

This is the silky soft treat you now get to slip into. 

You really need smell - a - vision to enjoy this.  You won't

believe how wonderful it feels and smells.

When we remodeled our bath a few years ago, this fun

dual spout faucet was our little indulgence.

Light some candles and slip into an amazing retreat for

the senses.

Imagine how much money you are saving over the

price at the spa.

Have a fabulous chocolate at the side of the tub

to indulge in with your bath.

I don't think Hershey's Spa serves this with their bubble bath.

After your indulgence, be sure to rinse the tub

and run the jets for a second if you have a jetted tub.

This recipe creates a bubble bath you won't forget.

I will be sharing this exotic retreat with
