Welcome to Day #9 of Chocolate and Nuts Theme Week.
Today's package of Vegan Turtle(s) was from The Organic House (Burlington, ON, Canada).
Aroma and flavor notes for these 70% dark chocolate-enrobed pecan turtles included: dark chocolate, sweet botanical/green (maple syrup, coconut flower nectar, brown sugar) and pecans.
Texture: a satisfying blend of smooth chocolate, smooth brown sugary caramel, and softly crunchy pecan halves. The caramel wasn't corn-syrup, pull your dental fillings out caramel. It was a much less sticky form of caramel, formed from natural sugars. I liked that.
I enjoyed this blend of balanced and flavorful, high-quality and organic ingredients (pecans, chocolate, choice of less processed sugars).
