Review of Nutcracker Brittle 55% Dark Chocolate - Theo Chocolate by kyu

It’s tasty! I love the message on the back: “No nutcrackers were harmed in the making of this chocolate bar” — and neither was anyone else, as this #organic #chocolate is vegan and sourced from farms without forced labor! Something to celebrate, indeed. #veganisnotscary

It’s quite sweet — borderline not-#teamdarkchocolate, in my opinion — with crunchy candy shards and lightly salted, buttery #hazelnut bits distributed throughout. This flavor doesn’t exactly scream ‘holiday’ to me (how I wish the gingerbread bar were vegan!) but I think most people would enjoy it. At 55% cacao, it’d be a great option for those who normally identify with #teammylkchocolate or like to pamper their #sweettooth generously.

I was a bit confused by the kosher dairy icon on the packaging, but I believe it applies to some of Theo’s milk chocolate bars; this one is “suitable for vegans.” I had the good fortune of finding it for just $0.99 over the summer (#groceryoutletfinds) when lots of the previous fall’s food was cropping up on deep discount. The artwork on this limited, seasonal bar is charming, and it would certainly make a cheery holiday gift! #chocoholic
