Today's White Chocolate with Cacao Nibs bar was made by Somerville Chocolate (Somerville, MA).


This attractively packaged and molded bar was a fun ride. It had a sweet, cocoa butter aroma with a hint of vanilla frosting. (There was no vanilla in this bar.***)
The flavor was predominantly white chocolate with a generous smattering of small dark crunchy bits (nibs) that tilted one's taste buds back over to the dark side every few seconds. And then, at the end of every bite, the sweetness gently but firmly re-asserted itself.
*Many commercial white chocolates replace all or part of the naturally occurring cocoa butter (the fat portion of the cocoa bean) with vegetable oils.
** Cocoa beans are actually seeds, but the term "bean" has become the more widely used term.
***Ingredients list read: cocoa butter, cane sugar, powdered milk, cacao nibs, soy lecithin
