I think it's delicious, particularly the sour cream taste. Had it on home made crepes last with the kids- the tub didn't last 30 minutes! Lol I loooove it so much!

Have you emailed them? The chocolates last pretty well - mine lasted a long time but I can understand the disappointment. I know that Pierre Marcolini have worked magic with their shipping tech so that delays like that don't spoil the chocolate. I hope Zchocolat is as good! Sorry to hear about that!

I don't think that it is right to judge a bar by the bean but Soma do tend to get the best out of the bean. Somehow they just seem to work magic with their equiptment! :-) Thanks!

I don't know if they still have the Bolivian beans as they only get small amounts but hey - just about everything they do I love - that Twilight bar WAS absolutely beautiful!

I don't think I've ever tried a Bolivian chocolate bar. I have had Norman Love's Bolivian truffle and they are divine. And I think I've had SOMA's single origin Bolivian truffle and again, it was good. But I'll have to try the bar, because if the Bolivian is any bit as good as the Peruvian (Love that Twilight bar!) it will be GREAT! You and me both with the obsession to fine chocolate. But we are in fact, in the public service, and it is our DUTY to eat the chocolate. One thing I have learned in all this tasting is NOT to eat any chocolate I'm not crazy about. I either give it to my husband (if I'm at home) or I'll throw it out rather than putting on calories for something I'd rather not have eaten. Thanks for this review, Judith.

I ordered a Mother's Day gift for my mom since I couldn't make it home. It was supposed to be delivered the Thursday before Mother's Day. I just got off the phone with the shipping company and yeah they now show delivery on Wednesday after Mother's Day. What the heck. Thanks a lot for nothing. I paid extra for express delivery. Even with summer packaging the chocolate will be crap after sitting in shipping for a freaking week. I'm posting fraud on my order through my credit card. I will never use ZChocolat again Horrible service. I ordered a Mother’s Day gift for my mom since I couldn’t make it home. It was supposed to be delivered the Thursday before Mother’s Day.

If you don't like a given hymn or carol, write your own or do the miiamnl Googling necessary to find existing songs you can agree with. We had a wonderful Solstice celebration, with seven sing along tunes and seven choir sung ones, and not one was a bowdlerized Christian carol. This sort of thing drives me up a wall.
