Pretty Flower Chocolate

Name: Jasmine Green Tea Chocolate
Brand: Splendid Specialties
Place Purchased: Cost Plus
Price: $3.19
Size: 1.5 oz
Calories per ounce: 174
Type: Chocolate

The prettiest tasting chocolate I've ever had. These medallions of milk chocolate are a little on the sweet size, but have a good mouth feel. There's slight bit of graininess to it towards the end.

But the taste is the real winner here. It's milk chocolate, but has the fragrance of jasmine tea. It's not clingy or soapy feeling, simply floral and clean.

The flavor lingers, like a mint would a half hour later. It's not really the kind of candy you'd idly snack on, it's more of a finishing chocolate. Something that you eat at the very end of the meal.

I plan to try the other flavors.

Most excellent reportage-ing! I can nearly taste the candies!

And so far your descriptions have saved me hundreds of calories and ten dollars!! Woo Hoo!

This is what I appreciate, most, about the Internets!
