ChocolateBet: July 24, 2008


Chocolate of the Day:

1/2 bar
L'Arbre A Sucre
"Chocolat noir and Morceaux de sucre d'erable croquants"
(Dark chocolate and pieces of maple? sugar)
Good - Very Good
Weight: 19 grams for 1/2 bar; 38 grams total
Calories: 110 calories (estimate) for 19 gram serving
Cost: $2.99 (Canadian)
Purchased from: Le Cartet, in Montreal, Quebec

This L'Arbre a Sucre bar from Quebec (Canada) was a nice dark chocolate bar, although I couldn't really taste the maple sugar that much. The 60% dark chocolate might have been just "dark" enough that it drowned out the maple flavor. The maple sugar was, I believe, the field of little granules applied to one side of the bar. Given this area's great maple sugar, I think I shall buy some a la carte next time, to make sure it doesn't get lost in the shuffle.
