Welcome to Day #12 of Chocolate, Pumpkin and Warm Fall Spices Theme Week.
Today's Chocolate Pecan Pie Pralines were created by SOMA chocolatemaker (Toronto, ON, Canada).
Hope everyone in Canada enjoyed their Thanksgiving (Oct. 9th) this year. Thanksgiving in the U.S. is yet to come; but it's not too early for pumpkin spiced-items, pecan pie and pumpkin pie.
SOMA's decadent Chocolate Pecan Pie Pralines were enjoyed with a slice of pumpkin pie from Raised Gluten Free (Arcata, CA).
Aroma notes for these coated oval- and pearl-shaped confections included: caramel, faint rich cocoa, and very faint vanilla.
A buttery, outer caramel chocolate coating surrounded slightly sweet and crunchy pecan pieces.
Flavor notes for each piece included: caramel, subtle chocolate (rich cocoa), hints of butter, brown sugar and milk, and naturally sweet pecans--all magically rolled into one bite.
The flavors were authentic and well balanced, and these pralines tumbled in caramel chocolate were sweet, but not overly so.
Ingredients: Pecans, Organic Cane Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Milk Powder, Cacao Nibs, Egg Whites, Salt, Natural Vanilla.
Allergen-related information: (Contains milk, egg, pecans.) "May contain traces of peanuts."
