Joseph Smith Confections – Belgian Dark Chocolate

11 May

This one is for those who like their chocolate chunky. It has a healthy snap and you get a real nice dose of the chocolate on the first bite. It’s very clean and solid. I liken it to the workmen’s chocolate bar. It’s definitely earthy and dense, and for whatever reason the sugar really overpowers.

Belgian Dark Chocolate

Joseph Smith Confections is based in San Francisco and has grown since the early 1980’s to have a highly reputable reputation, especially with chocolate novices like me.
This chocolate bar is like Drew Barrymore. Solid, grows on you, cute, very likable, but not quite an Oscar winner. Is that how you would describe Drew?

I wouldn’t rush out to buy it, but I wouldn’t turn it down.
Purchased at Piedmont Grocery

Price: $1.99 (good deal!)
