Hello chocolate sweethearts, I am back with a oh-yeahh, Happy Cows review. Okay, this, I did not make up. It truly is the name of this particular flavor. I picked up this bar a few days ago at a specialty Dutch shop. I was told by one of the employees that Happy Cows is part of Milka’s recently revealed, and yummilisciously enticing collection. Great, there are ten brand new flavours, and of course, I need to test and rate every single one. This is solely for work purposes, he he he! First one to devour and rate “Happy Cows.” Okay, let’s all admit now that the name is genius. It cannot get any perkier. Upon initial impression, Milka’s simple but yet seductive packaging is always spot on, and quite captivating. Who does not love purple and to top it off, with a cow that has bells in front. So attractive. I was truly excited to try this Happy Cow flavor and did just that. Primary effect besides the adorable packaging that I noticed is the prominent diversity between the milk and white chocolate. This bar really does attempt to depict a healthy cow. Next observation for extra rating points is of course the super darling name. Applaud all the way!!! The interactive packaging is luring enough to begin with and now the Happy Cows name, I cannot take it. Upon first bite, the chocolate has a woody and nutty type of an aftertaste. It is quite pleasant. The melt point is a bit on the slower side, but once you have achieved it, the experience is lovely. What else I realized half-way through my devouring is that I kept reaching for just one more bite of the choco. Before I knew, it was all gone. Just like that! Calories in, a whooping 530. Yikes! If the nutty taste was absent, Happy Cows would not have been happy, but instead, a sugar toxicity, death by sugar! The hazelnut paste allows for a balanced sweetness. The ingredient list is acceptable. The chocolate is of a nice size and feels substantial for its price of only $2.50. This I believe is definitely a bargain! Would I repurchase again, hmmmm, most likely yes!

Oh yes my lovelies, we are right back to cow land, an ultimate favourite place of mine, beloved Switzerland. This is where the birth of Milka commenced, on November 17, 1825. The Choco is therefore exactly 193 years old, and one of the oldest to date.
Philippe Suchard is the beautiful mind behind the creation. His spent endless hours to craft this patisserie from the stunning city of Neuchâtel, Switzerland, where I have personally danced the night away! The year to follow, Suchard expanded production. Due to the high demand of chocolate, a whooping 25 – 30 kg daily, he decided to move the company to a larger facility. Wow, at that time, this might have seemed gigantic but for today’s standards, this is a meager amount. During the 1890s, milk was at last added to Suchard’s recipe. What? Am I hearing this correctly, a vegan chocolate in the 1800s? You mean veganism was around much longer than this current, 21st century hype that everybody is taking credit for! Finally, someone else's recognition! In 1970, Suchard and Tobler literally became one, or as the famous saying goes, happily married. Interfood is what came out of their merger, and in 1982, Interfood moved on to begin a relationship with Jacobs. Ohhhhhh! From there forward, Kraft Foods acquired Jacobs Suchard, including Milka in the year 1990. I promise, I am almost done. In October 2012, Kraft snack division was renamed to be what is currently branded as Mondelez International. Ahhhhh, it is like a brick has been lifted off my chest. That was a whole lot of history and at the same time, it all sounds like too many promiscuous relationships. Dumping one for the other. Yikes! It never stops, even in the business world. Short and final outline, Milka has been internationally manufactured by Mondelez (formerly known as Kraft Foods) since 1990. In conclusion: Suchard S.A. 1925 -1970, Interfood S.A. (1970 - 1892), Jacobs Suchard AG (1982 - 1990), Kraft General Foods (1990 - 2012), and currently - Kraft: Mondelez International division. Milka markets for chocolates are: Albania, Andorra, Argentina, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Kosovo, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Moldova, Montenegro, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, San Marino, Serbia, Spain, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States. For over 100 years, Milka has been mostly crafted in Lörrach, Germany where, a “howling” 140,000 tonnes of chocolate was put together just in the year 2012 alone. There are also novelty shaped chocolates for the Easter and Christmas Celebrations which makes the brand incredibly festive. Milka decided to be a bit more diverse than their rivals by also producing cookies and biscuits. Now we are seriously getting down to business! At last, the tasting! First impression upon one small bite, succulently delicious. The chocolate itself is of utmost quality, but unfortunately there is not much of it. The melt is complete in just under 45 seconds, and yes, I timed it. The leftover in the palate is a complete surprise, an enormous number of hazelnuts and raisins. Milka has been quite generous, or maybe someone was having a happily drunken day at work one day when they decided to just dump the whole bin full of fruit and nuts in the chocolate bath. “Why not, let‘s make history!” The raisins though promote a sweeter taste than what I would consider balanced. Milka should have laid off the saccharine by at least 30% since the raisins provide for that in a naturally occurring state. The smoothness of the chocolate itself is just not there, and the extra embellishments of course do not help. On the upside, you get a good amount of chocolate for a budget friendly wallet. It does not though, cure my craving for when I desperately need a rush of “diabetes“, but it will temporarily dampen the desire. Let’s rip the ingredient list apart. Watch out Chocolate Makers, there is a new Chocolatier in town. Soriah has no pity and is outright witty! Sugar happens to be the very first item on the list which clearly “screams” that it is going to be a lot of it. Next to follow are the raisins, once again, on the sweet side. Just from these two ingredients alone, and them both being on the very top of the list should clearly indicate that this chocolate is going to be a sugar intoxication. Cocoa Butter, next on the list, is a vegetable fat derived from the cacao bean. The beans are dried, fermented, roasted, and finally, separated from their hulls. This process produces cocoa nibs. 54 - 58% of the cacao nibs are cacao butter (mostly a high amount of saturated and monounsaturated oldie acid types of fats). Watch and monitor your cholesterol levels people, plaque transpires one chocolate at a time. Next ingredient is the skimmed milk powder, which is nothing more than evaporating the milk into dryness. This preserves the milk, and when in powder form, it has a longer shelf life. Go figure, makes sense! Okay, here we are, at last, cocoa mass! Why is this core ingredient so far down the list? It should have been at the very top since guess what, without cocoa, there is no chocolate. Are you going to play an oblivious game here, come on now! Hmmmm. What then went wrong? Why be so discounted with your ingredients Milka? I am starting to think that it is a huge money saver tip for them and a human sickness induction for us. Absolutely awful. Whey Powder is as simple as this; a by-product of cheese production. I know that it sounds repulsive because it actually is, in a peculiarly weird way. Whey is the leftover from milk coagulating during the cheese production. Yuck! The protein in cow’s milk is 20% whey protein and 80% casein protein, FIY. Next are the hazelnuts, which once again, should have been at the least 2nd on the ingredient list. No need to elaborate, it is a nut. Only warning: watch for allergies. Milk fat is the naturally occurring fat in milk. Whenever I see milk in the form of Skim, 1 %, and 2 %, it makes me wonder why take the fat out and make it unnatural and unhealthy? What is the purpose of leaving behind only carbohydrates that are then just digested as sugar which in turn, spikes the insulin level? There is a reason behind the fat in milk. Actually, the same goes for all foods in their natural state, why tinker, why do we have to alter it all, why so greedy, why, why, why… I just do understand, and will most likely never agree with some of the methods that are being utilized by the food chain. It is for the sole purpose of making themselves rich, and the rest of the human body sick. Let’s move this discussion as my annoyance is starting to kick in, he he he! The next ingredient is soy lecithin, which is obtained from raw soybeans, and composed mainly of choline, fatty acids, glycerol, glycolipids, phospholipids, phosphoric acid, and triglycerides. Presently, lecithin is extracted from cottonseed, milk, marine life, rapeseed, sunflower, and soybeans but that was not always the case. Lecithin helps to provide products with a polished and consistent presentation. It also has the capability to emulsify fats, an excellent ingredient for non-stick cooking sprays. Hazelnut Paste one would think is just that, hazelnuts overly grounded while killing the Vitamix. Been there, done that, personal experience, not good! That is almost the case except take one step back; mildly roasting the hazelnuts. This is of utmost importance as it brings out the much more intense flavours of the hazelnuts. Lastly, artificial flavours (vanillin) – oh, my favourite part of the list, I just “squirm” at the word “artificial.” Vanillin is the main element of the extract of the vanilla bean. Artificial vanillin is presently used more and more often in foods, refreshments, and pharmaceuticals. Due to vanilla extract’s scarcity and its expensiveness, vanillin is instead heavily utilized. I will never understand why companies decide that it is okay to add substandard ingredients to their products and then label them as the best. To make matters worse, they have the nerve to fiercely commercialize and sell it all as something so incredibly special, and that it will bring you joy, save your marriage, make you fit, or popular, or good-looking, or successful. Seriously, what a bunch of ……….. Absolutely dreadful, ravening, corrupt, deceitful, deceptive, shady, shall I go on? Here you have it, exposed and disclosed!

Got you there for a second!!! When reviewing chocolates in general, I am always open minded regardless of price, packaging, or persuasion via advertisements. However, my lack of an open-minded positivity of horraaays stops at the ingredient list, whether the chocolate that I am reviewing is $100.00 per box or $0.99 cent per bar. If there are chemically infused and shockingly dispersed with rubbish ingredients within the chocolate, then that will certainly reflect the final rating. Nobody is paying me to assess or evaluate any chocolate, I have no family working in the chocolate business, I do not own a chocolate factory and no, I do not bathe in chocolate. Okay, fine, maybe once in a while, are you happy now? HE HE HE! It truly is just me and a 1000% honesty. This extensively difficult job is mainly done via devouring a whole lot of chocolate. I know, I know what you are all thinking, that I have the most strenuous type of work in the world. It certainly can feel that way sometimes. I sit down comfortably, wrap my lips in that choco, devour, and what follows - mind, body, and soul in utter meditation…This is starting to sound a bit hilarious, and sexual in some loathsome way? Yikes, how can words resemble so many meanings?
Upon first glance, I really do enjoy the exterior look of this bar. It has a mysterious vibe. The dark theme reflects the “midnight” dark chocolate quite nicely, but let’s be really frank with each other here, the only darkness in this chocolate regrettably stops at the cover. If you are looking for a true dark chocolate bar to relish, look elsewhere. There is no cacao percentage disclosed anywhere on the packaging. To make matters worse, it looks as though someone dumped this whole concoction into dark food colouring and decided to be a “smart-ass!” Truth be told! As for the taste, superficially sweet to the point where you feel nauseous, flabby, and fat, or as though you have gained at least 10 lbs. in just one sitting. There are several layers within the chocolate, caramel being the middle. Yes, my dear choco monsters, there is caramel if that is what your brain fancies. Taste time: as the Midnight Bar melts, the first and most obvious ingredient to disintegrate is the “dark” chocolate. To follow is the artificially made white filling that I am going to assume is where the egg white ingredient fits in. Oh, how revolted am I now? Last but not least is the caramel, which is left lingering on your palate. That my friends, concludes the Milky Way – Midnight Dark experience. There are no nuts or fruit within the bar, no healthy oils of any sort, no organic ingredients. I would highly NOT recommend this bar, but if you must, make it an annual habit. This is a heavy, sugar coated pick-me-up type of a dessert that must come with a warning label that says, “Please consume only with water or tea, otherwise, you will see.” Love the rhyme! In the meantime, I will leave you with one of my greatest recommendations as always: when consuming any type of a chocolate or sweet for that matter, devour only alongside foods that have a good amount of protein. It slows down the digestion and stabilizes the sugar spike. Who needs diabetes!

Its name of Payday grabbed my attention. Did I need to purchase, taste, test, and rate this bar? Oh you bet my chocolates I did! Why the Payday name I wondered, was this a sublime message of some sort? Long story short, I walked out with some groceries, and a Payday bar at hand. I thought that I might perhaps be hypnotized at first bite from the Payday bar, and would awaken to find a pile of money, sitting there ever so pretty, in a stunning Speedy 40 Louis Vuitton handbag. I mentioned the style since the larger the bag, the more “stuff” would fit in. He he he. Well, that was as far as this irrational perception went, just an assumptive fantasy.
The Payday chocolate bar was introduced in the year 1932 by Frank Martoccio, who later went on to serve as the boss of the Hollywood Candy Company, where the ZERO choco bar was also made. In 1968, the Martoccio family sold their Hollywood Brands to Consolidated Foods. In 1980, there was unfortunately a huge and destructive fire in their Centralia plant. On a positive note, production of the Payday bar did resume with the help of the L.S. Health and Sons Company. No production or time was lost. This aid continued until the new facility was constructed, 1988 to be exact. In 1996, Hollywood Brands became part of the Hershey Company. Payday chocolate bar has had several recipe variations. Honey-Roasted limited Edition in 2003, the Payday Pro which was a protein energy bar and created in 2005, and the Payday Chocolatey Avalanche in 2007. I am assuming they all stayed limited…..Hmmmm….. In 1989, an ingenious scheme was implemented to promote Payday by submerging an individually wrapped nickel in every bar. Okay, seriously; chocking = lawsuit! Nickel inside the bar, come on now, this is really asking to be sued. There was even a famous and at the same time tacky tagline that they promoted. “Expose Yourself in Payday.” Yikes! Dreadful!!! History lesson done, let the tasting begin! Okay, first of all, I never expected this bar to be completely covered in peanuts, and I mean a WHOLE lot of peanuts, two layers to be exact. They are everywhere, not an inch of the chocolate bar has some breathing room. I would not even call this a “chocolate” bar since hello, there is NO chocolate! This is a peanut bar, how deceiving. The peanuts are cut in half. That is some precise type of work. Somebody must have been really bored back in 1932 and thought, “I need to do something, anything, let’s cut some peanuts in half, with a sword! Okay, I have a wild imagination but that could have happened. The middle filling is there but on a very faint basis. All I taste is peanuts with an equal amount of sugar infested caramel and salt. That is it, nothing fancy or extravagant. It is a subtle, low-key bar that is obviously not smooth in texture. There is also of course no melt of any sort since there is no CHOCOLATE. I was really fooled with Payday, refund please. Lastly, the peanuts are most likely GMO infested but unfortunately, it is hard to trace. On the upside, the peanut bar has some protein, but I would definitely not consume this as a work out-type of a snack. The sugar content is much too high. I will have to pass! You have to be in a funky “mood” for this confection. It is certainly not the type of snack I would crave for, or want to indulge in during my weekly cheat day(s). It would be a waste of indulgence. Sorry to disappoint all of the Payday hard-core fans out there not only with this unpleasant review, but empty pockets. No Payday for Payday!

Milka is back; with a bit of a kick this time, hazelnuts! Nice! I love nuts, and most especially nut butters in general, but you might not be aware that I enjoy them most when they are intertwined with chocolate. You have the protein of the nut to regulate the sugar spike from the chocolate. It might not be a large amount of nuts, particularly in this chocolate, but anything counts. When I consume foods that have a sweetener of any sort, whether naturally occurring or man-made such as fructose for fruit, or sugar for chocolate, I mostly always like to incorporate a protein source of some kind to stabilize my sugar levels. This also applies to simple carbohydrates which are even worse on the GI scale than sugar itself. These carbs include foods such as white potatoes, white breads, cereals, cookies, muffins, you get the point! A perfect example of what I am trying to convey - bananas and almond butter = endless love, as they enhance each other’s benefits much better together than apart. Ahhhweheee, how sweet! Do not forget that even seeds count for an awesome source of protein such as hemp, flax, and chia. When it comes to the nut butter, you can go directly and purchase it from a grocery store, or if you want to have a little fun, make your own from any nut or seed you fancy. For instance, play around with almonds, peanuts, cashews, walnuts, hazelnuts, pumpkin and sunflower seeds to name a few. The varieties and combinations of taste and flavor in the nut butter department are immense.
Before I begin my review, I would like to point out that Milka lost some points due to a lousy ingredient list. It is not ideal to have sugar as your first ingredient or hazelnut paste instead of just adding more hazelnuts. Lastly, check out the artificial vanillin flavor, why not add the real “deal?” Anyhow, onto the tasting portion of my post, which also happens to be my favourite. At first bite, it is absolutely scrumptious. This Milka chocolate with the hazelnuts is truly a delight. I let the choco melt completely which by the way, is smooth and fabulous. Once the chocolate has liquefied, I am left solely with the taste of the hazelnuts. This also happens to conclude the last bite, and yes, it is a crunchy one! Milka has done it again, one fine piece of chocolate. I am left with wanting to devour yet another Milka bar, maybe two, okay fine, I will settle for three. This is a mighty delicious challenge! It seems as though, so far Milka has been nothing but a delectable confectionery. I would like to try a different flavor just to see if any of their chocolates disappoint. Back to the hunt but this time, for the “ugly” one! Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 3.8 / 5.0 Ingredients: Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Skimmed Milk Powder, Cocoa Mass, Hazelnuts, Whey Powder (From Milk), Milk Fat, Soya Lecithin (Emulsifier), Hazelnut Paste, Artificial Vanillin Flavour May contain: Wheat, or Other Nuts Store in a cool and dry place Nutrition Facts Per Portion (16.7 g) Calories 90 Fat 5 g 18% Saturated 3 g 15% Trans 0 g Cholesterol 0 g Sodium 20 mg 1% Carbohydrate 9 g 3% Fibre 0.4 g 2% Sugars 9 g Protein 1 g Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 0% Calcium 0% Iron 0% Bounty, how generic is this chocolate bar? I see it everywhere. No grocery store, corner store, or vendor machine makes me ever forget that the Bounty bar still exists. It is always in my face, and not a good-in-my-face kind of a way! Alright, before the critique begins, let’s do a bit of background history.
Fun fact, Bounty is British, okay, okay, not really but it was originally introduced in the year 1951 from the United Kingdom, and look at this, Canada as well. Its first recipe was concocted to include only a milk chocolate coating. Over time, the coconut ingredient was born. It was initially deliberated upon, and finally decided that the coconut filling needs to be neatly assimilatedwithin the milk chocolate. So far, so good! Bounty normally always packages its chocolate in two separate pieces. Perfect, one for you and one for me!!! This is a bit over the top, but in 2006 a cherry flavoured version became available in Australia. Initially, it was supposed to only be a limited edition however, for some reason, it stuck around until 2013. In Europe, yet another limited edition was introduced in the flavor mango. Yuck, I can only imagine how that whole circus of thrown ingredients tastes? Oh, to make matters more interesting, a pineapple flavoured edition is what the Russians insisted upon in the year 2014. Ahhh, now you have finally done it! Bounty is unfortunately no longer distributed by the enormous Mars. Perhaps Bounty finally “got dumped.” Yikes! Another amusing fact: Nigella Lawson apparently makes a delicious deep-fried Bounty Bar. It must taste so much better than its original “raw” form, actually anything will. You can find that recipe in her culinary book called Nigella Bites. Now that we have studied a bit of insightful Bounty history, lets delve in for the taste! I can honestly say that the original Bounty with milk chocolate is unfortunately better, not by much though. I am the last person to say something negative about dark chocolate, but this one is absolutely dreadful! Why do I feel like I have a surge of sugar running through my veins, more than the usual sweet infestation rush? It literally tastes like a counterfeit chocolate. There is something that went absolutely wrong in the making and tasting process. The Bounty team must have all gone to work that day without eating a grain of food, and their hunger responded to whatever was thrown their way for tasting. That is just an assumption, maybe even a correct one? Ha ha ha! Gotcha Bounty. Anyhow, I will not even attempt to further insult this reputable brand due to the backlash of die-hard fans therefore, I will quietly leave you with this question in mind to ponder over? Do I reach for a second bite? The answer is a big, fat, juicy, absolutely NO! Ingredients: Sugar, Desiccated Coconut (21%), Glucose Syrup, Cocoa Mass, Cocoa Butter, Emulsifiers (Soya Lecithin, E471), Milk Fat, Skimmed Milk Powder, Humectant (Glycerol), Lactose, Whey Powder (from Milk), Salt, Natural Vanilla Extract, Natural Flavour Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 1.1 / 5.0 Milka Chocolatier, finally, I got my hands on one of these, phewww. I realize that it is not normally this difficult to find the Milka brand but for some reason, it was for me. I was on a wild duck goose chase for Milka. Of course I happen to eventually find it in a specialty food shop, despite the fact that we all know this chocolate is actually quite common. There is nothing crazy different about it, not even the wrapping. Just a good old-fashioned presentation that perfectly reflects the company. Milka is a Swiss brand which originated over a century ago, 1901 to be exact.
Milka was finally manufactured worldwide by Mondelez International (formerly known as Kraft Foods), a US confectionery company beginning as of 2012. This universal manufacturing intially began in 1990. For a little over 100 years though, Milka has been mainly produced in Lorrach, Germany, where more than 140,000 tonnes of chocolate was created just in the year 2012 alone. Wow, impressive!!! Milka also produces chocolate-covered cookies and biscuits. Moving on, history lesson done, tasting time to come! It is a very simple chocolate, no bells and whistles, no nuts, sprinkles, fruit of any sort, no crazy ingredients such as matcha, chilli, goji berries (which by the way, I actually love). This is a chocolate bar for all, especially people who appreciate life from a minimalistic approach. I am pretty sure that even the elderly would enjoy this bar, and so do I so far! Rhyme delight! It has a superb melt, the bar itself is quite addictive. I certainly could not stop at one square. The sweetness is at a level just enough to satisfy anyone's need for sugar, without the overwhelming factor of making you feel like you are diabetic. This is a fine chocolate bar. There is no tardiness of any sort but a whole lot of smoothness. Oh my, I just had my last bite, yes, it is all gone. How did this happen? I know, Milka made a great choco. Switzerland, truly the land of yoghurt, cheese, chocolate, and milk. I am completely satisfied. I hate to admit this but if there was a second bar hidden somewhere, I would have most likely devoured that as well. For all of you out there who want to lose a few pounds, do not purchase any food that you know you will not have any control over. My assumption is cookies, cake, muffins, ice cream, chocolate, chips, all that bad stuff that makes people feel glorious, fantastic, marvellous. Unfortunately, this pleasant feeling only lasts for a glimpse of a second, but the aftereffect leaves one full of nothing but guilt and extra bulk of fat. I always wonder is it really worth it? Instead, why not purchase some fruit and drizzle your own homemade chocolate sauce on top. All you need is cacao powder, coconut oil/cacao butter, and a sweetener of your choice. I would opt for maple syrup, date sugar, coconut sugar, and if you are not vegan, raw honey. From there forward, you just need to eat; no guilt! Anyhow beautifuls, that is my review for the day.

It has been a ball! Some of the days throughout have been great, and others not so much, due to many chocolate aspects. I strive to bring awareness to ingredients and at the same time, rate based on taste, texture, aftertaste, and appearance of wrapping and chocolate. I am incredibly optimistic that 2017 will see a fantastic turn-around with many chocolate makers in terms of what they add to their cacao beans. Of course, at the same time, it does have to be scrumptious. You cannot have healthy without tasty. Having said that, I would like to immensely thank everyone who took the time to read my Christmas blogs. You have given me a wonderful opportunity to spread my message that you can eat chocolate daily, lots of it too, but with the right ingredients. I send you all gigantic chocolate hugs, wherever you might be on this beautiful world.
GODIVA CHOCOLATES – CHOCOBLOGMASS ADVENT CALENDAR Yes, Godiva did deliver a bon bon for Day 25 of their Advent Calendar Edition. It is an utterly unique shape, so much so that I do not know what it is. Initially, it looks like four sided but then upon closer look, it could be 8, 12 or in the end, even circular. That is up to the imagination of every individual who is lucky enough to devour. As for the chocolate, itself, I would have appreciated something a bit more lavish for the very last day of the competition however, I am happy that something was included instead of not. Taste: the chocolate is super creamy, a bit of a buttery flavour mixed with caramel. It smacks like a grandmother eating with no teeth, not always a bad thing. There is a sweetness with a ting to keep you guessing. I do not perceive the mystery as anything worthwhile but it is there.

This goes for all sorts of sweeteners that are under different names. It is a bit sad actually.

Well actually, it should have been the end for them long ago but I gave Lindt the benefit of the doubt. Despite my benevolence, their daily bon bons were outright stale and rancid. I was hopeful that there would come a day, any day for that matter where I would happily find a Choco that did not make me ill. That day never came.

Once again, a reminiscent of a previous day. This bon bon has been seen before. No doubt about that! It still looks gorgeous though the second, third, and fourth time around. I adore the small little crushed nuts sprinkled ever so delicately on top, just to give it some pizzazz. The job is successfully done. This by the way is a milk chocolate that I am referring to for Day 24 of Godiva’s Advent Calendar Edition. The shape is circular, the Choco is dense enough to remember and realize that Godiva has not become thrifty overnight. They still prefer to give than receive! Taste: Creamy consistency on the inside, and the nuts provide just enough texture for a crunch on the outside. Unfortunately though, the sweetener is too dense, and the melt I would say is satisfactory. Overall, a C+ in my book.

I cannot help but smile with the impeccable simplicity of Rogers’ chocolates. It is such a minimalist approach that they have managed to form but somehow, it all comes together to present perfection. Another daily winner here! Chocolisciously Delightful Ingredients: Milk Chocolate (Sugar, Milk, Cocoa Butter, Chocolate Liquor, Soya Lecithin, Vanilla) Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 4.9 / 5.0 PURDY’S CHOCOLATIER – CHOCOBLOGMASS ADVENT CALENDAR Purdy’s should be out of the running by now. They have pushed it to the limits. I cannot believe the amount of chances I have been generously giving them. Once again, a duplication that is from a very, very recent day of this "Advent Calendar Edition." At the very least, Purdy’s employees should have thought about putting a bigger gap between the same looking chocolates throughout the advent calendar. As for taste, I must admit, it is all wrong. Purdy’s has been one of the weakest contenders in this Advent Calendar Edition, and they just keep plummeting. The chocolate concoction is an insult to other chocolate makers on all levels. Do not get me started now! Chocolisciously Delightful Ingredients: Unfortunately, the company did not disclose this information. I will always wonder why! Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 1.7 / 5.0 LÄDERACH – CHOCOBLOGMASS ADVENT CALENDAR Now this is Christmas! How beautiful is the milk chocolate angel holding a star from Lädearch’s 24th day of their Advent Calendar! She looks gentle, sympathetic, and remorseful but yet at the same time, a bit arrogant. Her wings are made of white chocolate but it is so minimal that the taste gets lost. Ohhhhhh, I just bit her head off, and it was delicious!!! I am truly sorry. Does it make it any better if the angel knows that I am testing, comparing, and at the same time trying to make the world a better place by bringing awareness to ingredients in chocolates? Now that I worded it in that manner, I feel a little better. The taste is spectacular, as most of the other Advent Calendar Days from this Swiss chocolate maker are. I just finished devouring the rest, and it was a creamy, indulging, scrumptious, nutty, and lastly, I want more. Now how could Läderach not realize their full potential if only the ingredient list is altered; not tweaked though as there are too many things to substitute or remove. Laderach's chocos would then be nothing short of perfection. I am looking forward to seeing this change for next year. I am eagerly waiting!!!

In addition, Daniel Chocolates tries to make up for their missed Advent Calendar days with yet another mini-mini sized bar, which can qualify as an actual chocolate bar you can purchase in a local grocery store. It looks great. One of my colleagues loves them all, at least in appearance. As for taste, I do appreciate the small ingredient list as less is more in this case. My main complaint though is the glucose level. It is just a tad bit over the top, not much, jusssssttttt a little bit! He He He.

Hmmm, actually, upon closer inspection, the carving for today is not as flawless as the rest of the Advent Calendar Days. The drumpy faced impression does not work, and Santa’s hat is much too small for his head. Also, there is no portrayal of movement in any way or form in this Choco. I wonder why. Regardless, the taste is also disappointing. Cheap, cheap, and more cheapness. Ingredients, and of course methods are both imperative for a good dessert. In Sinfully The Best’s Case, their cheap ingredients that they source from who knows where are not doing them justice. Perhaps it is Mexico. Well, they are out of luck now as there will be a 20% tax imposed for any imports coming to the US. I believe that this took place this morning. Goodbye guacamole, ahhhhh. Nothing will ever get through without paying US taxes, especially with the huge wall that will also be built between Mexico and America. This my friends will apparently be paid for by the Mexican government from the money imposed on the taxes. It is a vicious circle. Anyhow, I am getting off this topic now as I really do not want to spend time talking about politics on my blog. It is too controversial. The only controversies that I would like to see here should be in relation to chocolate, and food. I do not want to be the burden of starting a fiery brawl. In conclusion, this Choco just did not make the cut! Chocolisciously Delightful Ingredients: Unknown Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 2.0 / 5.0 GODIVA CHOCOLATES – CHOCOBLOGMASS ADVENT CALENDAR
I am 100% certain that I have seen this bon bon somewhere before. Ah, yes, an occurrence of a repetition once again. Godiva thought that it would be quickly eaten by all and forgotten, but ohhh no my friends, I do remember, and am sending out a reminder. It has been documented therefore the duplication secret is out. No problem though since this bon bon makes up in the appearance department. It does look so very pretty, quite sophisticated, and a lovely exterior. The milk chocolate shavings that are ever so delicate resemble light snowflakes that have just began to fall. Ohhh, so poetic but that is how I feel when I look at this choco. Upon first bite though, I am surprised. The filling is caramel, and you would think that it would be a sweet-fest but no, there is bitterness to it. Actually, it is completely distasteful. Uhhhhh, the aftertaste is so sour. I cannot believe this. Beautiful on outside but yet so ugly on the inside. This choco cannot get any worse. How deceived I feel. The overall taste is so tart that I perceive it as hostile. I feel cheated, and I cannot seem to get past this initial impression. “Do not judge a book by its cover” as the oldest saying goes!

Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 0.4 / 5.0 LÄDERACH – CHOCOBLOGMASS ADVENT CALENDAR A repetition for Läderach. What is it with these Chocolate Companies, can they not think of something more original, and unique for each individual day of these Advent Calendars. Come on now, surprise the kids a little, or perhaps you want to make them sulk? Not much is going on for the exterior in terms of appearance but upon first devour, this choco is nothing short of spectacular. Creamy, silky, a hazelnut aftertaste that balances the sugar, good pungent that is not overly abundant, and an acceptable melt. Overall, great job Läderach, but please do SOMETHING about this vicious ingredient list. Who wants to consume things with food colouring, palm oil, milk powder, and plant oils to point some of them out? Hmmmm, I wonder what is up with the plant oils. I like the coconut oil ingredient, even the sunflower oil but come on with the rest. "Plant Oils" is too generic. What is really in this concoction of oils. I feel resentful for their harsh ingredient list, and am completely turned off, despite their delicious taste in chocolate. I am hopeful that things will change in the near future with this famous Swiss Brand, and a healthier and improved version will soon be introduced.

Well, not the chocolate itself to be precise, but the green foil with a music note on one side, and an additional chocolate with gold foil and a music note on the other. Come on, the carving imagination for Sinfully The Best is out of this world. Not only are there no duplications in their advent calendar so far, but the exterior appearance of their chocolates is absolutely one of the best. That is where they earn most of their rating points from. It is certainly not due to their quality in chocolate, or the lack of ingredient list that they have "mistakenly" managed to not provide to us. Their strength is purely superficial. Just pretty on the outside with bad taste, and zero personality on the inside. Flavour: bland milk chocolate that is hard to bite, lack in smoothness, undesirable melt, and cheap cacao mixture. Whatever you are adding to your beans Sinfully The Best, just stop, and back off!!! Get it together, and learn that a quality meal, snack, dessert, even chocolate begins with good ingredients. A cheap list will produce a cheap taste! Chocolisciously Delightful Ingredients: Unknown Chocolisciously Delightful Rating: 2.9 / 5.0 |
