Delicata 72% Cacao Puur Chocolade





About: What I wrote about Delicata elsewhere: "This is the Albert Hijn supermarket upscale brand. I like the packaging and even more the thin bar. Nothing is more annoying than having dark chocolate that's too thick and which forces you to strain to get a small piece. Well, almost nothing. There are gnats."

What I have to add now: It's not a bad bar, but it's not a great bar, either.


Flavor: The flavor is fine, if you haven't just finished another bar of excellent chocolate just prior, as I have. In comparison, this bar pales. The chocolate flavor is solid, but comes on weak, stays around only briefly, and departs. The after taste is a bit sour. But.. it's all just fine. And it's definitely not bad. Slightly fruity. Slightly bright. Nice. 


Texture: Perfectly reasonable, but nothing to cream about. It's smooth, and there's not chalkiness or harsh brittle waxiness.Slightly brittle and okay overall.

My rating: A solid 7.5 or so. There are other cheap, better, solid go-to daily bars, so I wouldn't really bother with this bar, but if you're stuck with this or some horrible abortion like Godiva, take this.  

Here,  10 means 'mind shockingly good' and 1 means 'would not bother'.
