Welcome to Day #10 of Chocolate, Pumpkins, and Warm Fall Spices.

Today's Dark Chocolate With Pumpkin Spice 60% (bar) was from Maya Chocolates (Pinole, CA). This Bay Area based company creates small-batch, flavored, gluten-free dark chocolate bars. (The Rose and Pistachio 65% bar was featured previously on Chocolate Banquet.)

Aroma notes included: chocolate (cocoa with a shake of cinnamon) and warm spices (a light, uniform sprinkle was visible, and it was more aromatic, on one side).

This chocolate bar had a pleasing, uniformly buttery, creamy texture and melt. (It contained real butter.)

Flavor notes included: chocolate (gentle, rich cocoa; sweet dark chocolate ganache), warm spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice blend), and very faint butter. 

This pleasant seasonal bar was a balanced, relatively sweet and creamy chocolate, flavored with a subtle, warm, cinnamon-forward, pumpkin spice blend. 

Ingredients: Sugar, Cocoa, Butter, Soy Lecithin, Spice (Cinnamon, Ginger, Nutmeg, Allspice, Sulfiting Agents)

Allergen-related information: "May contain traces of milk and other tree nuts."
