dark apple cider chocolate bar (USA)

After two years of waiting, today was the day of the bi-annual A. Panza and Sons Ice Cream Trade Show. I took a few pictures while I was there and ate way too many frozen products than I would care to share, but you'll hear about all of that tomorrow.

Today's entry is about Hebert's Dark Apple Cider Chocolate Bar. Now, a couple of weeks ago, Justin did a review on another Hebert's bar, the Dark Bananas Foster. As you can recall, he wasn't too impressed with the bar and asked for a wake up call when the flavor improved. I'll go into this review unbiased.

Upon first opening the bar, I could smell the overwhelming aroma of dark chocolate. Not a bad thing at all. However, I didn't smell anything that even closely resembled the apple cider. The bar was broken down into 10 sections and had even diagonal lines running across it. My first bite was one of awe. Whereas the Bananas Foster bar came up short, this one hit the flavor right on the money. The chocolate was delicious and the apple cider filling, though a tad on the sweet side, was en pointe. This is a bar I could see myself buying again. Good job on this one Mr. Hebert.

dark bananas foster bar (USA)

Greetings Kit Kat Palace! I would have posted sooner, but I was too busy eating organic, non-fat, sugar-free, whole wheat, all natural Kashi bars and doing speedwork. You know how it is. During Rob's marathon excursion to my place of residence, Miami, I had the pleasure of sampling a "Dark Bananas Foster" chocolate bar. While I am not well versed in the ways of confectionary criticism, even my amateur pallete could sense that something was lacking. Bananas. The dark chocolate was smooth, rich, and satisfying. However, the bar's experience simply did not live up to its name. Although there was a slight trace of banana flavoring, it was reminiscent of the power gels I consumed during the race. Overall Mr. Dark Bananas Foster Bar, you suck. Give me a call when you get yourself together.
