House of Brussels Chocolates and its Chocomed Subsidiary Begin Initial Sales of its New Branded 24/7 Nutritional Bar

DELTA, BC, CANADA, (NAMC) - House of Brussels Chocolates ("Brussels" or "HBSL") (OTCBB:), through its Chairman and ChocoMed President, William (Bill) Donovan, MD, announces the first sales of Brussels/ChocoMed new branded 24/7 Nutritional bars to this four year Brussels customer who wishes to remain unnamed. The 24/7 bar is a balanced nutritional bar and as the name insinuates was developed to be taken every day as a food supplement. While most supplement bars tend to be bland in taste and appearance, not so for 24/7. Each variety is filled with a tasty filling such as "Dark Chocolate Espresso", "Caramel and Almond" and "Cookie Dough" all covered with tantalizing gourmet chocolate. But don't let the delicious taste fool you. Internationally renown House of Brussels Chocolates, and their ChocoMed Subsidiary has had this bar under development for more than one year before Brussels Gourmet Chocolatiers felt it had the appearance, quality, healthy ingredients and taste to carry the House of Brussels name.

Additionally, for the extremely health conscious, Brussels/ChocoMed has now completed the development of three "all organic" fruit and nut bars which are 100% all organic ingredients, vegan certified, wheat and glutton free. These bars will begin to enter the supply chain right after the first of the year at which time further information will be released.

Dr. Donovan stated, "In contrast to our ChocoMed's recently announced 'Pure Chocolate(TM)' line of nutraceutical bars which were each developed for a specific need and targeted for the adult market, 24/7 and our new organic bars were developed as everyday supplemental bars that can be taken to work by adults or included in school lunchboxes." In regards to the 24/7 bar, Donovan went on to say, "The comments we have received from test consumers and "buyers" for retail chains have been unanimous. They can't believe that 24/7 can be so tasty and still be a nutritional bar priced so attractively. It is my belief that 24/7 will be one of Brussels/ChocoMeds top revenue and profit producing products. While this existing client is the first to sign on the product, we are talking with several other retailers and are confident this House of Brussels "branded" bar will be offered nationwide through various retailers in 2006."

Grant Petersen, Brussels President said, "It looks like ChocoMed may have hit another home run for Brussels with the 24/7 line. Something we expect will also happen with our new organic bars once they are released. The response our sales force is getting for these new products is exciting to say the least." Petersen went on to say, "After four years of year over year order increases from our above mentioned mega customer with the same products, I am happy to say that this multi-million dollar account is now expanding past our existing product lines. Increasing 're-orders' and adding new products from existing clients is the best testament any manufacturer can possibly receive and to have it happen with a fast growing $52 billion client is the ultimate complement."
