Welcome to Day #3 of Chocolate and Honey Theme Week.
Today's Honey Mama's Peanut Butter Cup Cocoa Truffle Bar was from Nectar Foods, Inc. (Portland, OR). The company produces a line of Cocoa Truffle Bars, all sweetened using honey, rather than refined sugar.
Aroma notes for these refrigerated truffle bars included: chocolate nut butter and honey cookie; peanuts.
This hearty soft chewy, fudge-y bar was a cross between a rich, soft chocolate cookie and a chocolate bar. It had smooth cocoa, peanut, and faint soft, sweet (pleasing) green floral (honey, vanilla), and very faint coconut notes.
I liked the natural honey flavor, and that the overall sweetness level wasn't too high (thank you!).
Ingredients: Organic Roasted Peanuts, Organic Raw Honey, Organic Unrefined Coconut Oil, Organic Alkalized Cocoa Powder, Organic Coconut Flour, Cocoa Butter, Vanilla Extract, Himalayan Pink Salt.
Allergen-related information: Peanuts and Coconut. (Maker's note: Do not feed honey to infants under one year of age.)
