K + M Extravirgin Dark Chocolate Bars
June 7, 2019
K + M Extravirgin dark chocolate, made in Napa, CA, has a secret. They hand craft their bean-to-bar chocolates with extravirgin olive oil in order to boost the antioxidant properties as well as enhance the cocoa bean’s flavor and the bar’s smoothness.
According to their website, www.kellermannichocolate.com, by adding a small amount of MANNI organic extra-virgin olive oil through their proprietary chocolate-making process, the chocolate retains three times the amount of antioxidants compared to the traditional method. They say it’s, “Good for your body, good for your soul”!

How did they know that chocolate would be the absolute perfect gift for me??
Extremely (and Supremely!) Dark Chocolate
August 2, 2018
I eat very little refined sugar and don’t consume artificial sweeteners. Not because I have to, but because I want to. For me, it’s the smart thing to do. I feel better physically and mentally. I live more days having that wonderful “sense of well-being” than I do without. And I still have a chocolate-filled life!
Last week I reviewed two stevia sweetened chocolates. I rarely eat chocolate with sucrose replacers like alcohol sugars or stevia. I much prefer eating chocolates that lower the sugar by increasing the cacao percentage.
