Is there a dark chocolate-loving lady in your life you’d like to honor this Mother’s Day? If so, I curated this lovely collection of four dark chocolate bars so she can enjoy a special tasting. You can also pair these bars with a beautiful tasting place mat or plate to complete the experience! Better still, treat this lucky chocolate lover to a private online tasting with me for the full royal treatment so she may understand and appreciate the chocolate to its fullest!

This bundle is an homage to the fine flavor beans of Tanzania and Venezuela, two of my most favorite cacao-growing origins! The Tanzanian bars both have red fruit notes that are harmoniously balanced with the rich dark chocolate, but both of the bars are quite distinct! The Karuna also has notes of caramel, dates and a slight citrus hint. It’s both complex and creamy. The Moka Origins bar is a burst of bright cherries, raspberries and a hint of plum. Both bars have a voluptuous mouthfeel.

The Venezuelan bars complement the fruity Tanzanians in the most pleasing way. These bars are deeply chocolatey and a bit nutty in their profiles. I have a hard time keeping the Cata Ocumare on the shelf as many customers call it their favorite bar, and the Fallingwater is a delicious and edible piece of art, inspired by the eponymous Frank Lloyd Wright house in southwestern PA.
