MoFo '14 Day 24 - Endangered Species Chocolate


It's another chocolate day today, yay! I first heard of Endangered Species chocolate on the PPK forums, originally I was drawn in by talk of high quality fun flavoured chocolate but I was even more excited when I heard that they give 10% of their net profits to organisations that support species conservation and habitat prevention. How cool! Each bar also has an adorable picture of an animal on the front and I think they're an entirely vegan company. It took a lot of standing around in the chocolate aisle deliberating before I decided to pick the Raspberry Orange Créme filled bar. The other bars I was considering were Sea Salt & Lime Créme, Almond Butter Créme and Lavender Mint Créme. I think that list should explain how hard the decision was!


Now I don't know about you but when I think of creams and cream filled bars I think of quite a runny fondant but that was not what I found inside.


After a couple of seconds of confusion when I initially snapped the bar I realised that this is a créme not a cream! And what a delicious créme it is, or should I say was. Whilst it totally wasn't what I was expecting the sweet tart fruity orange and raspberry filling compliments the rich 72% dark chocolate perfectly and I intend to eat my way through the rest of the range next time I visit the US.

  9. I'm looking forward to finding those cream-filled bar. I don't know what the difference is between crème and cream... the runniness?

  10. I tried a couple of the cream filled bars - but I still like the solid chocolate bars better. Plus, I was bummed that these had palm oil in them. :( I try to avoid it as much as possible.

  11. You guys are so spoiled for choice there! I want to eat this delicious looking chocolate. Salted lime creme would be great - there's a guy at my local farmer's market who does a lot of dark chocolates and he does a salted lime (no filling) and it's really good.
