Chocolate Review- Cote d’Or 70% Dark Chocolate

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

    This chocolate bar is wrapped in a layer of aluminum foil and then placed in a box not much larger than the bar itself. By the way this is Bulgarian chocolate.

    The bar is about 6 1/2 inches in length and 3 inches across. There are two rows chocolate squares that are 1 inch and a centimeter. There are 5 squares in each row. On each square there is an elephant which is the brands logo.

    Here comes the most important part. I found this bar enjoyable. It had a nice taste, it wasn't too sweat or too bitter, at least for me. It had good creamy texture, I like how it trickled down my throat. This chocolate is softer (I hope you know what I mean by this). It is easy to chew and it melts in your mouth nicely. It has a satisfying after taste. It was very good for being mass produced by Kraft International. 

    There are very few ingredients, which is a mark for good chocolate. 

    Ingredients: Chocolate, Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Cocoa, Milkfat, Natural Flavor, and Soy Lethicin.    

    I would give this bar a 7 out of 10 on the chocometer. It isn't my first choice for a chocolaty snack but I would definitely have it again.

Lemon Lime White Chocolate by Frey Chocolate

Friday, October 5th, 2007

    First of all I would like to apologize for not posting in a while. I have been so busy lately that I have had no time to post about chocolate.

    For those of you who who don't know this is Swiss Chocolate. It is white chocolate, which I have stated many times is technically not chocolate.

    This is a highly recommended!!! At first I wasn't confident how this chocolate was going to taste but I was happily surprised. It basically white chocolate with little pieces of lemon and lime granules in it. It is sweet yet you receive a little buzz of citrus which is highly pleasing to the tongue. The chocolate itself is very creamy and rich. It melted in my mouth so smoothly. I am a big fan of this chocolate. I would defiantly put this on your grocery list if I were you! Me and my Mom scarfed this down our throats. My Dad on the other hand wasn't so pleased with his tasting results. He isn't a fruity kind of guy when it comes to desert. So if you don't like fruity deserts then you might want to skip this.

    This chocolate brand is great for us chocolate lovers!!!

It Can’t Get Much More Bitter Than This- Lindt 99% Chocolate

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

    Well As you know from the post before this that this brand of chocolate is very creamy, rich and good tasting chocolate. This post is on the same brand only darker. 

    I found it extremely bitter! I knew it was going to be bitter but it was a shock to find it as bitter as it was. I like the texture of this chocolate very much but the chocolate is very pungent. The packaging it very nice. It is sealed in this plastic case and then placed in its box. There are many little squares of chocolate about 3 quarters of an in on all sides. I am very glad that the chocolate squares are in small quantities because I don't think I could handle having more than 3 squares at a time. 

    I can see myself buying this again but I think it will last a very long time in this house hold. But on a good side this is about as healthy you can get a chocolate bar. If you were really enthused with the essence of chocolate try buying Cocoa Nibs. The last time I had Cocoa Nibs I thought I might be able to handle the bitterness of them but I was mistaken.
