Welcome to Day #11 of Chocolate and France Theme Week, and Day #3 of Chocolate & Fruits Theme Week.
Today's 70% Dark Chocolate - Raspberry (bar) was from Philippe Beaulieu USA LLC (Miami, FL). The company is inspired by French/European chocolate making traditions and uses cacao from Colombia (Tolima region).
Thank you to Kay at Touring Chocolatier (Flower Mound, TX)* for sending this bar.
Complex aroma and flavor notes included: dark chocolate (with very faint roasted cacao/dark chocolate and berry licorice); and tart-sweet red raspberries/raspberry jam.
Texture: Smooth chocolate with a slight granularity, with a vibrant, colorful field of freeze-dried red raspberries on one side.
I appreciated the attractive, sophisticated packaging (black and gold, with a clear window view of the bright raspberry within) and the authentic freeze-dried raspberry fruit (with enough berry seeds to be authentic, and not so many that it was hard to eat).
Ingredients: Organic Cocoa Mass, Organic Unrefined Sugar, Organic Cocoa Butter, Freeze dried raspberries.
Allergen-related information: May contain traces of tree nuts. ("No Lecithin, Gluten Free, Chemical Free, Egg Free, Artificial Flavor Free, Soy Free, No Refined Sugar")
