Exploding Chocolate!

Today I'm taking a step back from the hubbub of beauty and talking about chocolate. Not just any ol' chocolate, oh no, chocolate that EXPLODES in your mouth. Well, okay, it crackles, but how cool!? I love me a good ol' fashion Hershey's bar and appreciate the simplicity but sometimes it's just really cool to see what flavors chocolatiers can blender together! I found this bar of Chuao chocolate at a grocery store in Brooklyn. It was placed at eye level and the picture of the fire cracking chocolate caught me like "what in the world ...?" It's a dark chocolate bar with sea salt, chipotle (!!), and popping candy. Tell me that doesn't sound like something you'd be willing to try! It was love at first bite when I got home and finally got to eat it. I had that internal battle of do I eat it all now or save some so I can enjoy it tomorrow as well? I was good ... it lasted the night and the next morning, haha! The smoky chipotle and sea salt compliment each other so well. As the chocolate slowly melts in your mouth you start to hear and feel the crickle and crackle of the popping candy. It's such a weird experience, yes, experience, but a tasty one! This brand of chocolate makes the most ridiculous flavors and now I'm on a man hunt for the others. Bacon and maple syrup? Salty potato chips? MMM, I really want! I heard that these are sold at Bed, Bath & Beyond so I need to get my butt over there ASAP. Just thought I'd share this with you guys and give you a heads up to look out for them. If you're a chocolate connoisseur, you'll def. want to get your hands on a bar!

  1. YUSS, I got one of these in my Birchbox awhile ago (the one with honey in it) and since then I've also tried the bacon one and potato chip one... none of them disappoint!! Seriously, I wish I had a stash of these around my apartment at all times; they're just SO good :)
