Welcome to Day #1 of Chocolate & Earth: Mountains, Forests & Gardens Theme Week. (The next 4 weeks will focus on chocolates related to the elements: Earth, Water and Fire.)
Today's Snowcapped Coconut 50% Cacao Oatmilk Chocolate (bar) was from Wild West Chocolate (Missoula, MT).
This chocolate was "inspired by the majestic peaks of the snow-covered Rocky Mountains" and was "blanketed with a whimsical flurry of organic coconut flakes."
Aroma and flavor notes for this vegan dark oatmilk bar included: smooth dark chocolate, faint diffuse fruit (berry, tropical fruit, and barely-there citrus (sweet tangerine)), and very faint coconut.
Texture: creamy smooth chocolate with a dusting of very fine-textured coconut "snow" on one side.
I enjoyed the balanced blend of very subtle fruit, smooth chocolate, and very light and authentic coconut "snow."
I appreciated the use of Organic ingredients; the fruit powder blend used to sweeten the chocolate; and that this oat milk bar did not taste "oat-y". It was sweet, but not too sweet--allowing greater appreciation for the subtle chocolate and other flavors.
Ingredients: Organic Oatmilk Chocolate (Organic Fruit Blend [Powdered Date+, Powdered Mulberry+, Powdered Peach+, Powdered Mango+], Organic Cocoa Liquor++, Organic Cocoa Butter++, Oatmilk+, Vanilla Extract+), Coconut+. (+Organic; ++49% Fair Trade ingredients)
