Today's attractively packaged World Classics Trading Company Majestic Mint bar was made from Swiss dark chocolate (55% cacao) and infused with peppermint -- in the form of peppermint infused sugar pieces -- which gave the bar a pleasantly sweet crunch. The chocolate bar itself tasted good, albeit a bit bland, but was slightly brittle. This was likely due to the bar's expiration date: Jan. 22, 2011 -- well over a year ago.

Today was Day #5 of Chocolate and Mint Theme Week.

This morning I bid adieu to chocolate and peanut butter week, and kicked off the first day of Chocolate and Nibs Theme Week with this Chocolate Obsession bar from World Classics/World Brands, Inc. The cacao nibs, embedded throughout a 69% cacao Swiss dark chocolate base, added a welcome touch of taste and and crunchy texture.
