"The first bite. A bit bitter and the raspberries make it grainy on my tongue. Second bite I get the idea to flip the chocolate over so the raspberries are on the top of my mouth instead of my tongue. The chocolate is creamer as I let it melt this time. Still slightly bitter and when you get to the raspberries they are tart and get stuck in your teeth. I'd buy it again though because the chocolate flavor despite being a bit on the bitter side also had that creaminess that is usually lacking in dark chocolates. Maybe a different flavor next time. I bought it at a specialty coffee house in Columbia Falls MT. The 1.2 oz, single serve bar size is 181 cal...which is pretty good considering the size, which I was able to share with my daughter so we each only consumed 1/2 the cal. and it was $1.55. At this particular location they sold larger bars of some of the varieties and offered 33% Milk Chocolate, 55% Orange peel in Dark Chocolate, 55% Raspberries in Dark Chocolate, 33% Toffee and Almonds in Milk Chocolate, 33% Hazel nuts in Milk Chocolate, 61% Certified Organic Dark Chocolate, and 65% Ginger Crystalized in Dark Chocolate .
The toffee one sounds good as does the ginger...I'm not big on orange and chocolate as a combo, but would be willing to try it."

With being sick I've not made it back to buy a second flavor, but I'll let you know when I get around to it.
Thanks for sharing this post with your readers. ;)

Thank you! Guess who bought a Chocolove? I let you know what I think.
Have you tried it yet? What flavor. I looked yesterday at Target, they were on sale for $1.99, but I didn't want to buy the big bar and then not like it. Can't throw out chocolate!LOL
Let me know

When I said above, guess who bought, it was actually B :) 'Cause he buys all of my chocolate. It was 61% Organic Dark. It has a nice shine and good snap, and it was sweet for a dark chocolate. I was hit with the sugar first, then as it melted I tasted a small amount of bitter. That bitter sticks for a little while. I bet that exact chocolate composition would taste great with the raspberry or orange. It's okay on its own, though.
