It's not that hard. This isn't something invented by Toth but is rather just a standard part of chocolate tasting. You don't need a $300 or even $10 chocolate

You don't need a $300 or even $10 chocolate bar to benefit from this technique - it brings out the flavors of a $3 Trader Joe's 85% cacao Colombian bar just as nicely.
- atwebb 9y agoReally, really off the point but is your 85% $3? Ours is 2, I only recognize it because of the absurd amount we eat.
- mortenjorck 9y agoYou know what, I think I was recalling the price of a different bar they introduced more recently. The 85% Dark Chocolate Lover's Bar is still $2 here.
- majos 9y agoOurs is 1.70 or so. Trader Joe's has a bad record for suddenly ceasing production of stuff I like, so I buy a few dozen bars at a time. There's a noticeable difference between the first bar of a purchase batch and the last a few months later -- less fruity glossy snap, but I also find it more "cocoa"ish.
- nasredin 9y ago"absurd amount"? Huh. FYI Trader Frank's has the Pound Plus Bar for IIRC about $5. Probably less fancy than the 85% one, but cheaper.
- atwebb 9y agoYeah we're on the whole low carb thing and it's relatively low carb while being cheap and delicious, couple that with living a distance from TJs, we tend to stock up and then our lack of will power comes into play...
