Backpacker's Pocket Pate Chocolate
Today I went on a group hike in the Devil's Slide area with views of the Pacific Ocean (south of San Francisco, CA) -- a perfect occasion to try today's Backpacker's Pocket Pate Chocolate. This colorful wax-covered "weather-proof chocolate" was filled with a very sweet, dark chocolate ganache. And, with a knife, this chocolate was easily cut into share-able slices/pieces with the rest of the hiking group. Thank you for the tasting help and feedback to Nancy's hiking group!
