Barcelona Exotic Candy BarCandy à la mode |
This is not only an up-to-the-minute candy bar (dark milk chocolate, smoked almonds, and sea salt, high/low, very fashionable), but the most delicious fancy one we’ve ever tasted. From those shameless folks at Vosges Haut-Chocolat, who also sell a Yoga + Chocolate Chakra Gift Box, with seven truffles representing the seven chakras.
Barcelona Exotic Candy Bar
Vosges Haut-Chocolat, $7
I looked at the site, quite a selection of chocolate bars with unusual additions. The bacon- milk chocolate bar is something I'm tempted to try...
Delicious, one of my favorite "flavored" chocolate bars. The bacon bar, BTW, is also very good, with a similar smoky flavor profile.
i used to sell the vosges moe's bacon bars at the grocery i worked at. one bar was enough to sample and sell them by the case. they are amazing!
One of my very favorite chocolate bars -- the Barcelona. Was disappointed in the bacon one.
Some of the chocolate bar concepts are hokey even though the chocolate may taste good.
agree with maria re some of the outrageous ideas for chocolate. i was disappointed in vosges. went to their store in chicago and did try the chocolate but....didnt think much of it. will probably go to my old fav again moonstruck chocolate cafe.
Now that I've tried several times, I have to say the problem with the bacon bar is that it's variable: some samples I've had have been disappointing, while others have been much more "bacony." It could be that bacon just isn't uniform enough (even tiny bits have a different fat/lean ratio) to guarantee a uniform result.
