Today was Day #4 of Chocolate and Cranberry Theme Week.

This 73% cocoa Dark Chocolate with Cranberries bar from Bovetti Chocolats was made in Terrasson, France, and imported into the U.S.

The chocolate, was smooth, i.e. not terribly acidic given the relatively high percentage of cocoa solids and dark color. A very faint vanilla flavor note suffused the bar. Flashes of burgandy-colored, sweetened dried cranberry bits on one side added visual interest, and a wee bit of concentrated fruit flavor and texture.
