Welcome to Day #5 of Chocolate, Sugar and Spice Theme Week.

Today's Gingerbread Bar was made by Nathan Miller Chocolate (Chambersburg, PA)

The bar was made with 55 percent Oko Caribe* direct trade organic Dominican cacao, organic buttermilk, organic cane sugar, and organic cocoa butter.

This Gingerbread bar (that contained some flour) was a complex mix of salty, slightly tangy, bitter-sweet chocolate with a hint of warm spice afterglow that kicked in at the end.

*Oko Caribe is a cacao fermentary near the city of San Francisco de Macoris in the Cibao region of the Dominican Republic.

Welcome to Day #4 of Chocolate, Sugar and Spice Theme Week.


Today's "Spices" Dark Chocolate bar from Mulate Organic Chocolates was created by Chocolate Naive (a bean-to-bar maker in Lithuania).

The smooth, 65 percent cacao dark chocolate had well balanced and authentic cinnamon and vanilla aroma and flavor, and a hint of warmth from cayenne pepper—a perfect bar to enjoy on a cool fall day in the mountains.
