Welcome to Day #3 of Chocolate and Orange Theme Week.

Today's Blood Orange 70% dark chocolate (bar) was from Ocelot Craft Chocolate Limited (Dundee, UK).

Aroma and flavor notes for this bar included: smooth dark chocolate, authentic orange and very faint vanilla.

Texture: notably creamy/cacao buttery, smooth texture, mouthfeel and melt.

I really enjoyed the texture; the sweetness level seemed well-chosen; and the blood orange oil and subtle vanilla flavors harmonized nicely with the dark chocolate. 

Ingredients: "cacao mass*, raw cane sugar*, cacao butter*, blood orange oil (<1%), vanilla extract*. Cacao solids: 70% minimum.

Allergen-related information: "May contain almonds, hazelnuts and milk.
