I'm a firm believe that Trader Joe's and Aldi sell the
best chocolate around. It's also because of these two stores chocolate products
that I'm now a self proclaimed chocolate snob. Why? Well, I'm starting to find
regular name brand candy to not be so tasty any longer. I was in the mood for
something sweet last time I was shopping so I picked up a Trader Joe's
Milk Chocolate Filled with Caramel bar because they're at the checkout
and they're only 99 cents.
When I was a kid I loved caramel chocolates (more
importantly, Cadbury's Caramello bars) ... so I had a strong inkling that I
would enjoy this. Opening the bar up it's 6 little squares which all linked
together as a bar. The chocolate "shell" is firm, yet
soft and can crush in your fingertips if you're trying to break a piece
off. The chocolate itself is smooth, velvety, delicious milk chocolate
while the caramel is soft, gooey, and sweet yet not overly. I don't find this
to be so sweet that it leaves your taste buds overwhelmed ... it's milder in
sweetness to satisfy but not sicken. It's perfect to share ... or if you're in
a chocolate mood to enjoy on your own.
A bar is 220 calories or 6 points plus values.
yum, i will have to look for this chocolate next time i'm at TJs. i totally agree about TJs chocolate btw. so good and a fraction of the price of expensive chocolatiers.
