I picked up this delicious little bar when I was visiting the San Diego area, it's only 1 ounce, but wow was it GOOD! Ingredients consist of only: cacao butter, cacao powder, and coconut nectar and is gluten free. Really nice uncomplicated and pure chocolate flavor, for a slightly daunting price... small size does help for people who are still struggling with … [Read more...] about Tonic Scene Raw Organic Vegan Dark Chocolate Sweetened with Coconut Nectar 70% Cacao

NewTree Pink Peppercorn Sexy 73 Percent Cocoa Belgian Chocolate Bar
Don't think for a second when you open this chocolate bar that you're in for an ordinary experience. I opened the wrapper and was greeted with a VERY unfamilar smell... I smelled... PEPPER before I smelled dark chocolate. It was even ever so slightly off putting. It gave me pause... yes me - your intrepid food explorer! But I tasted it and WOW! This is a super unique and … [Read more...] about NewTree Pink Peppercorn Sexy 73 Percent Cocoa Belgian Chocolate Bar
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

Green & Black’s Organic Bittersweet Dark Chocolate Bar, Currant and Hazelnut
This bar has such a great balance to it—even though its only 60% cacao (I normally like things VERY VERY dark)—the crunch of the hazelnuts, and tangy currant bits work together incredibly well. Organic and Fair Trade. Definitely getting this again. … [Read more...] about Green & Black’s Organic Bittersweet Dark Chocolate Bar, Currant and Hazelnut
An Unusually Delicious Combination – Custom Chocolates with Peterbrooke Chocolatier!
Yesterday was incredibly cool - as I got to make chocolates with my friends at Winter Park's Peterbrooke Chocolatier yet again (here's a video of when we made Year of the Dragon spicy chocolates last time). The day before, while lamenting that a certain local health food store has NOT restocked their pink peppercorn and guarana dark chocolate bar, I had a sudden moment of … [Read more...] about An Unusually Delicious Combination – Custom Chocolates with Peterbrooke Chocolatier!
Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goldenberry and Lucuma
"What's lucuma?!" My friend asked while we were sharing this bar of chocolate today. Embarassingly I had to admit that I didn't know, but it was fun to watch her eyes bug out when I said I didn't know. Well - now we BOTH know, because inside the wrapper was more info about the included sundried lucuma powder in the chocolate as well as the goldenberries and some very … [Read more...] about Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goldenberry and Lucuma
ChocoHigos Hand-dipped Dark Chocolate Figs
Sometimes dried figs are like hard rocks, testing the structural integrity of your teeth and dentalwork. Not so with these - the Spanish Pararero figs are unbelieveably soft and slightly chewy with thin skins I didn't even notice. Just enough to hold all the crunchy seeds inside really. The figs have the consistency of a very soft carmel which is further enhanced by the … [Read more...] about ChocoHigos Hand-dipped Dark Chocolate Figs
