Review of 'Camino' Almonds

Camino -- Almonds (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Summary: Nice! This chocolate is soft, not at all brittle. It's got such a great sweetness to it and the bits of almonds throughout really enhance the taste. I would have enjoyed some bigger chunks of almonds, however. The darkness of the chocolate translates to a faint bitterness that's really nice. I highly recommend this bar.

Where to buy: Bulk Barn, Fortinos, buy online from Camino

Ingredients: cacao mass*, golden cane sugar*, cacao butter*, crushed almonds (10%), whole cane sugar*, ground vanilla beans*.
