      Review<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

      The bar has a striking appearance, with different edges and patterns for each “piece” to break off. I wonder if the design affects the crystallization; I’m sure removing the chocolate from such a decorative mold is a more complex process compared to your typical chocolate bar.<\/p>\r\n

      This is the first bar I’ve tried with cocoa sourced from India. It is a drier bar, requiring a bit of chewing action to generate saliva to melt the chocolate. It is a decent chocolate bar, with hints of almond. However, the flavors are not particularly memorable — literally, I find that I have already forgotten the flavor of the bar as soon as I’ve finished eating it.<\/p>\r\n

      For this bar, the design gets a thumbs up, but the chocolate itself is just all right. I will have to try another bar with cocoa from India to get a sense of the variety of the region.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
