Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goji Berries, Pecans and Maca
Not only does it have an adorable looking spider monkey on the wrapper, 10% of the profits of the sale of these chocolate bars go to help endangered species.

Beyond Organic Fine Italian Chocolate with Probiotics and Omega 3s
Beyond Organic chocolate bars - glad I got a photo of 2 of them together - they disappear so quickly that this is a somewhat rare photo. They come in small boxes of 12, which might sound like a lot to you - this is an illusion. Each bar is 1.2oz or 35g which is both a blessing and a curse - on one hand, if you are a very good friend, you can snap one in half and there's a … [Read more...] about Beyond Organic Fine Italian Chocolate with Probiotics and Omega 3s
Pashen Raw Food Snack Bars – Original and Cacao
I love these. They have a delicious complex flavor and texture that is just fantastic for workshop weekends or times of increased activity.

Taza Chocolate Mexicano Chipotle Chocolate Discs Organic 70% Cacao
My second recent trip to the greater Boston area included a second trip to the Taza chocolate factory. This incredible and delicious chocolate has a very unique almost "grainy" texture due to the fact that it is stone ground in a very interesting traditional Mexican way. The factory itself is housed in an old school warehouse in a fairly industrial area of Somerville. We … [Read more...] about Taza Chocolate Mexicano Chipotle Chocolate Discs Organic 70% Cacao
