Chocolate of the Day:
Trader Joe's
Almond Ginger - Dark Chocolate 70% bar
Good - Good +
Weight: .75 oz. (21.2 g.) / 2 oz. (57 g.) in 1 bar
Calories: 116 calories (estimate) in 3/4 oz. (21.2 g.) piece
Cost: $9.99 (estimate) for 7-bar tasting pack
Purchased from: Trader Joe's, Palo Alto, CA
Several months back I spotted a Trader Joe's (Monrovia, CA) tasting pack of seven different bars -- all made with a 70% cacao dark chocolate base, with added flavors.
Today's Almond Ginger bar, from Trader Joe's "Takes Flight" dark chocolate tasting collection, sparkled with bits of crystallized ginger. Tiny flecks of almond added some crunchy texture; and a bit of salt helped round out and balance the sweetness.
Today was the last day of Chocolate and Ginger Theme Week, and Day #1 of Chocolate and Almond Week.
