Welcome to Day #6 of Chocolate and Ginger Theme Week.

Today's package of Dark Chocolate (70%) Candied Ginger (pieces/strips) was from Ranger Chocolate (Portland, OR).

Aroma notes included: authentic ginger (warm spice) and dark chocolate (rich, warm drinking chocolate).

Texture: the ginger had just the right amount of chewiness (not too soft/gelatinous and not too tough); and the dark chocolate was smooth with a nice melt.

Flavor notes for these attractive, sugar-bejeweled confections included: prominent warm and authentic, spicy ginger (that wasn't too spicy) and dark chocolate (that coated only about 1/4 of the ginger pieces--along the long edge of each strip). 

I liked the ginger and dark chocolate flavors. My only quibble was: I wanted to taste more of the chocolate. The focus was on the candied ginger. And it was tasty, authentic, sweet ginger. But, I would have loved tasting more of the 70% dark chocolate. 

Ingredients: "candied ginger (ginger, sugar, sulfur dioxide), chocolate (organic cacao, organic sugar, cacao butter)"
