Welcome to Day #4 of Chocolate and Honey Theme Week.
Today's Honeyed Hazelnut - Bittersweet Chocolate & Honeyed Hazelnuts bark was from Ragged Coast Chocolates (Westbrook, ME).
Aroma notes for this bar-shaped bark included: higher-end, single origin dark chocolate (chocolate tart, diffuse fruit), and faint honey-ed nuts.
Smooth, almost creamy, sweet chocolate was topped with a generous helping of honeyed hazelnut pieces. These hazelnuts had rich, nuanced, high-quality nut flavor(s) that lingered into the finish.
The chocolate was fairly sweet; but the tasty hazelnut pieces helped balance the sweetness. And the Latin American chocolate used, albeit sweet, seemed to offer more chocolate depth and flavor than most chocolate confections.
Ingredients: "Single Origin Latin American Bittersweet Chocolate (cocoa liquor, sugar, cocoa butter, soy lecithin, natural vanilla), Roasted Hazelnuts, Honey."
Allergen-related information: Allergens: Soy, Nuts (Hazelnuts), Milk, and Coconut.
