About this deal

The bar is intensely fruity (dried plums) plus extremely rich in chocolate and nutty notes throughout. The roasted notes are even, nothing burnt or over done. As expected, the finish is very bitter but so darn chocolatey that there’s no reason not to love it.

I don’t believe so, but I don’t have the ingredients in front of me. If it is Dutch processed with alkali, they would have to disclose that on the label. It’s FDA law. Reply Thank you for your help! I hope they can stay reasonably priced so all people can appreciate your work as well as health benefits. Sincerely Kim Reply

I haven’t seen one with orange but it’s worth asking about it at the store. Reply How do I get a sample to taste it out ? Do not really grasp ( 93% 0f the bar is chocolate and 7% is cocoa nibs ) How so ? Well , I’m curious that’s ALL Reply

I’ve reached the top of the mountain. The end of the road. The last stop. I have eaten 100% chocolate. By that I mean chocolate with 100% cocoa solids. That's right, no sugar or any other ingredients! cacao is VERY strong and bitter tasting. It has zero sugar. I’m happy you tried it,however. It was very adventerous of you! Reply For that awesome, dramatic cocoa hit, this is simply the best, but don't say we didn't warn you!" Simon Oz bars However, I am having trouble finding them except with orange. Are the bars mentioned above still available? All of these chocolate bars are gluten free and made without sugar, dairy or soya. Enjoy a 100% Dark Chocolate bar that is perfect for those following no sugar diets, vegans and for making healthy food choices. More chocolate, less sugar sums this range up perfectly and as always we encourage eating more than one square! These 100% cocoa chocolates are highly recommended for treat day!You say “93% of the bar is a combination of cocoa solids and cocoa butter”. Surely cocoa butter is a “cocoa solid”? The wrapper of the bar I bought today (in the UK: “Made by Montezuma’s Chocolates in […] UK”) says “100% cocoa solids”. Does that mean 100% cocoa, or what? Most dark chocolates I’ve seen specify a percentage of cocoa and a percentage of cocoa butter, iirc, as well as any other ingredients (usually at least a little sugar and some milk). What exactly do they mean by “cocoa solids”? Does that include cocoa butter? If so, why don’t they give the breakdown, I wonder? What about the nibs you mention? Is there a different formulation for the US market, or just tighter legislation about how they describe the ingredients? Reply

Well, I’ve eaten 100% chocolate and lived to tell about it. Plus, you should know that I didn’t just tolerate it and cross it off my list. It’s one of the best chocolate bars I have ever had! This bar is split to 93% (combined cocoa solids and cocoa butter) and 7% cocoa nibs (crushed pieces of bean). Reply This 100% chocolate is rather amazing. The snap is crisp, and the nibs are crunchy. The texture is rather smooth, not counting the disruption of the nibs. It is astringent and melts slowly. I found this bar at a Trader Joes store in the USA. 93% of the bar is a combination of cocoa solids and cocoa butter. In other words, unsweetened baking chocolate or “chocolate liquor”. 7% are nibs which means they add small bits of chopped cocoa beans. Reply

100% DARK CHOCOLATE

I used to do almost the same, but prunes instead of dates. But I can’t handle the sugar. Thankfully, this chocolate works well by itself! Reply For over a year I have been eating Montezuma’s 100% bitter chocolate from Trader Joe’s in the US and chased with their dates in between. I enjoy bitter chased with sweet and vice versa, a nice treat on taste buds. Reply
