Chocolate Tasting…

So I was telling you last week that I bought these three Chocolate Bars…

Three Chocolate Bars

I couldn’t wait to get home and tear the covers off em and ram em down my throat.

I restrained myself though, as these are sophisticated creatures of delight.  I knew I had to play it cool with these…

I really had a bit of a pain in my head trying to decide which one to eat first.  I pondered over them and fondled each of them one by one.  I read their wrappers and took in what they had to say about how they were made, what they were made of and where in the world their innermost beans came from.

I decided by eliminating one from the list.  I decided to leave the Mora Mora Bar ’til last, for two reasons;

  1. It was the most expensive – It cost a whopping £3.21
  2. It says this on the wrapper:

Mora Mora Chocolate Bar

“Worlds best Chocolate Winner – Silver Award 2007″.

I thought it must be pretty good tasting stuff and best kept for last.  I placed it carefully back in the fridge.

So it was a toss up between the other two.

Seeds of Change just seemed to beckon me with it’s pieces of figs, so I went for it.

My God.

My God is all I say.

This is one flippin’ mouthwatering piece of chocolate.

Look at the bits of fig in it:

Fig pieces in the Chocolate - Oh lordy!

The whole thing was just perfect.  The texture was divine and I didn’t want the consumption of it to end.  I wanted more when I had finished, so I moved onto my second conquest.

The Chokolit Dark Orange – Biting Back Bar with the pic of the cute chimp on it.  He kinda looks sad…  hmmmm… anyway…

This chocolate was just beautiful. 

It had the perfect consistency.  I’m no professional taster; I can’t go on about the fruit tones and the flowery essence and all that waffle.  I’m just a simpleton who knows what I like in a bar of chocolate.  I know I like this one.  The texture is perfect.  It’s got a hint of orange, you’d be a pure eejit to miss that cuz it says it on the wrapper too.  It was just another magical experience.

The Mora Mora Bar was consumed on the next evening.

It was a momentous build up…

What an anti-climax.

This was really disappointing.

A glorified Bourneville.

It was hard and plastic-y tasting like Bourneville too.

I wouldn’t recommend it at all.

What a rip off too…

    Hi, Just came across your blog and delighed to see Dark Chocolate as a tag. That tasting post was excellent an I know what you mean about the anticlimax. It has happened to me a few times :-(

    I’ve only seen the Seeds of Change bar in Dublin and will be picking up a bar on my bext visit to Tesco. But I will keep an eye out for the Sad Monkey chocolate (sad cause someone was about to eat his bar …).
