Chocolate Review 7 - Splendid Specialties Jasmine Green Tea Chocolate
Saturday, October 21, 2006 at 09:37PM
My husband likes this bar, but he likes milk chocolate more than I do. He says, "It's like bologna & steak. I like bologna, but I like steak better." For the record, I hate bologna. But that doesn't mean I hate milk chocolate.
Splendid Specialties - Jasmine Green Tea - Milk Chocolate Bar
My first reaction was one of surprise. It has a funky fragrance. One which is unusual probably due to the green tea leaves. I really wanted to like this bar.
The chocolate itself tasted solid and creamy. A fine milk chocolate with a smooth finish. However, the smell coupled with the lingering aftertaste left me unimpressed. Also, I really didn't care for the combo of chocolate and green tea. I wonder if I would like it, if it were dark chocolate.
The Candy Blog certainly enjoyed it more than me. So, if you don't care for my opinion read theirs.
Price: $2.00

Insane! I've had this stuff in the canister before and it was awesome! Maybe something was wrong with the one you got, but my chocolate smelled like chocolate with a hint of jasmine floral.
