What does edelvollmilchschokolade translate to? I know about the milk chocolate, but what's edelvoll?

I'm currently enjoying some edelvollmilchschokolade mit feinen gewurzen. (What's gewurzen?)

The description is: Duftende weihnachts-gewurze wie anis, nelken, koriander und ein haunch von Vanille und zimt cremig geruhrt in zartschmetzender edelkuverture.

Vollmilchschokolade = Milk chocolate

edelvollmilchschokolade = ordinary milk chocolate with the word "edel",

edel

adj. noble, precious, affectedly delicate, overly refined, thoroughbred; aristocratic

put in front of it to make it sound really special.

"Gewürze" means spices, the transcription translates to: aromatic christmas spices like anise, carnation, coriander and a hint of vanilla and cinnamon were mixed to make this delicate coverture.

We just like combining two words to make one ridiculously long one.

Vollmilch : whole milk (i.e. not skimmed).

Nelken, here, means cloves, not carnation.

Cloves... I thought it was nutmeg. Cool! Thank you!

I do think the edel refers to the cocoa brand used.

Ah, so really good cocoa, or something, eh? Cheers!

[apisa-b.livejournal.com]

Exactly :-)

Oh, I know you do! LOL! Thank you!
