World Demarquette Pure Blend 65%

Posted by JudithLewis  Published in Great Chocolate

Share I bought this chocolate bar some time ago and finally got around to trying it out. The flavour is delicate and pleasant and not at all too earthy or leathery.  It was slightly flat in my mouth but it was still a smooth, delicious taste. This is definitely a blended bar and that comes [...]

Paul A Young Marmite XO Chocolate Bar

Posted by JudithLewis  Published in Chocolate

Share Marmite. It’s not the first thing you think of pairing 64% Madagascar dark chocolate with. I can taste the Marmite still lingering on my palette like a single note sounded like a clarion call in the morning. Marmite and chocolate is something only Paul A Young could do and do it he has. Not [...]

Green & Blacks Espresso Chocolate Bar

Posted by JudithLewis  Published in Good Chocolate

Share Oh my dear goodness gracious me this is one heck of a dark coffee chocolate bar.  The overwhelming scent on opening this bar was one of coffee with maybe a bit of chocolate tossed in and that is certainly the taste. The chocolate here is smooth and as it melts in the mouth there [...]

Rococo Rose Chocolate Bar

Posted by JudithLewis  Published in Great Chocolate

Share A dark chocolate bee bar that has a Turkish Delight flavour of rose.  It makes it not too floral and quite pleasant.  It’s like Turkish Delight without the chewy gooey bits. The dark chocolate doesn’t stand out on its own and so the flavour of the chocolate is somewhat lost in the outstanding sweet [...]

Roar Raw 81% Chocolate Bar

Posted by JudithLewis  Published in OK Chocolate

Share This “raw” chocolate smells the same, looks the same and seems the same as other chocolate.  It’s hard to understand what is so different about it. It’s like getting the Choc Chick Kit made up for you by someone else.  I wasn’t a giant fan but it was delicious chocolate and I really enjoyed [...]

Chocacao Chocolate with ACTICOA chocolate from Belgium

Posted by JudithLewis  Published in Good Chocolate

Share This chocolate comes with a recommended daily dosage limit based around the size of the baby bars.  One of these a day will keep the doctor away or something like that.  It will, apparently, boost your immune system, improve your skin, keep you feeling young and fit and more.  I’m not so such but [...]
