Nestle Damak Dark Chocolate with Pistachios
July 5, 2016
I spotted this small, square chocolate bar while walking through the candy aisle at my local grocery store. The shape made me think it was made by Ritter Sport, but then I noticed it said Nestle on it.
The really interesting thing, though, was seeing Pistachios on the cover. Nestle and pistachios? And it’s made in Turkey. Well, that’s new!

Dillon’s Chocolates: The Wisconsin Bar
June 13, 2016
Residing in Wisconsin my entire life, I recognize what the outside world associates with the state – cheese, brats, beer, and more cheese.

Divvies Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar
June 6, 2016
I love finding chocolate bars that are free from most common allergens. I love it because then my food-allergic daughter is able to safely delight in what many of us take for granted - she can enjoy eating a chocolate bar when the craving hits.

Lindt 90% Supreme Dark Review
May 9, 2016
I’m sure there are many who might look at a chocolate bar label with 90% cacao and cringe. That’s almost like eating unsweetened baking chocolate! One would have to be out of their mind to eat such a thing, right?
On the other hand, if you’re into super dark chocolate like me, you look at that label and smile. 90% has some serious chocolate impact to inflict!

May 2, 2016
Recently, I was given a Divine Dark Chocolate with Ginger and Orange bar as a thank-you gift. I enjoy this brand of chocolate, but never tasted this particular variety before.
The chocolate is 70% Ghanaian and, true to every Divine bar I’ve ever had, it is superb.

Chocolate Vodka with Dark Chocolate Covered Raspberry Creams
April 18, 2016
I recently made chocolate vodka, infusing it with cacao nibs (unsweetened, cracked and roasted pieces from the cocoa bean).
The chocolate impact was fantastic. The chocolatey flavor was authentic and bold since there was no added sugar to distract from the natural nuances of the cocoa notes.
