Later tonight, after our meals are done, my
family and I will try chocolate bars, from Dick Taylor Chocolate
Some background on the
company started with the pairs, love of woodworking and boat building. What
they saw in this craft, became their passion for reinventing the chocolate
experience. Using the finest cacao and the Standard European process, all of
their chocolate is finely made from the bean. This is all done in their modest
factory in Northern California .
The first bite of the
chocolate that the company sent is the Belize Toledo. I must add that the packaging
of the candy is has stunning art work of a wooden boat being built. So back to
the candy. The outstanding cocoa they use for this product, comes from the Toledo region in southern Belize . Maya Mountain Cacao is a small co-op that has
partnered with local Mayan farmers to boost not just the standard of cocoa they
cultivate but also their quality of life. They excel on all dimensions, and
this award-winning bar is evidence of that. Eating the Belize chocolate bar, was like very smooth, with a gentle
fruity organic flavor. This chocolate bar would go great paired with wine or
brie. Clearly, Dick Taylor Chocolate takes their chocolate-making seriously. You have
to take note that there is only two ingredients to this chocolate bar, the
cacao from Belize , and cane sugar. You will taste so much more in every
bite. You just need to experience gourmet chocolate to understand the taste.
Little bites of this chocolate goes a long way, to satisfy your palette. The
taste is not what you are going to expect, it is not your common chocolate
candy bar. This is a highly crafted chocolate with unique flavor, that is recognized
world wide.
For the next tasting, it was
the craft chocolate microbath vanilla milk. This bar is one of Dick Taylor Chocolate
unique inclusion of the month. Also they offer this bar as a monthly
subscription. This month's bar is a 55% dark milk chocolate containing their
Brazilian cocoa and a really special A2/A2 whole milk powder created by
Alexandre Family Dairy. This is a exquisite bar, and you can taste the vanilla
bean, with a aromatic cacao scent. It brings many child hood memories back of
warm summer nights, and loved tasting it with a glass of cold milk. The milk
used in this bar is considered Old fashion. It is a natural milk that you add
to your body, and is easily digested. I will definitely say this chocolate
shaved would be a great addition to top off a dessert with.
The last bar, I have the
honor of tasting is the Dick Taylor Chocolate dark black fig. The Cacao used for this
bar originates from the Bertil Akesson plantation in the Sambirano Valley of
Madagascar. Black Mission figs from California , makes this a outstanding chocolate bar. It is
smooth, with citrus notes, and the fruit bites and nuts. This is a serious
chocolate bar, not to be taken lightly when eating. You want to take small
bites and cherish every chew. It would make a great addition to a dessert
recipe, or paired with wine tasting. The balance of the sweetness is perfect.
It was a pleasure on my palate.
