Episode #92: Easter Under Attack

Easter’s just around the corner and so while at the store yesterday, I picked up our absolute favorites. These are also your favorite varieties because we know you. We know you all too well. How? Don’t ask. You don’t have time because you’re telling everyone you know about our fantastic content. We appreciate it – sort of.

Episode #92: Easter Under Attack

Cadbury Mini Eggs – United States

These are the holy grail of delights for Kit when it comes to Easter chocolate. The thin shell and the chocolate are tops in her opinion.

Kit – 5 out of 5 stars

Reese’s Pieces Peanut Butter Eggs – United States

First off, I meant to grab the variety which lays bare; sans pieces. The pieces are so maintaed in the peanut butter grease that it’s kind of just a little bit of broken glass in there. Regardless, they are quite satisfying. But not for Kit who loathes peanut butter.

Episode 79: Ten Years After

Episode 79: Ten Years After

Well, this is a special occasion. Ten years after our first conflagration in the physical universe, outside the confines of the full duplex telecommunications stream you people call the telephone, we come together to tell of the mysterious juxtaposition of fruit and nut and the feet you can eat. Cheers.

Episode 36: Crispy Crunch & Topic Bars

We’re starting to think that perhaps Miles may be the ultimate chocolate snob. Has he been sampling chocolate longer than us and just turns his nose up at everything? We don’t know, but to this date he hasn’t tried anything – at least on camera.

Mars Topic Bar – Poland

Our first one that we’ve tried from Poland! With great results! It’s kind of like a step above a Snickers bar – tastes much better and like it has better ingredients.

Cadbury Crispy Crunch – Canada

Is it Butterfinger-esque? That’s Kit’s main fear with this one. Well, it kind of is completely Butterfinger-esque.

Episode 33: Mr Big & Strawberry Shortcake

With this post, all episode of The Chocolate Break to date are up! I found myself with a lot of extra time. Everyone here was sick so I just sat on here and hammered everything out. New posts will appear here on Thursdays around 11am Seattle time.

Seattle Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake – United States

This one was incredibly good – very sweet with a lot of great strawberry flavor – even visible pieces of strawberries in the bar!

Mr. Big Original – Canada

It’s a really big bar full of double entendre, rice puffs, chocolate and caramel.

Episode 28: Violet Crumble & CHOMP!

My wife has rabies I think because she’s been apt to bite lately. I have known for years that she might have feral tendencies, but in this episode, you will see how she does indeed bite if provoked. She is a wild animal – and I would not want her any other way.

Cadbury Chomp – United Kingdom

A flat, wide bowel movement – visually. Thin chocolate and a lot of caramel.

Nestle Violet Crumble – Australia

A walk back in time for Hans – a bar of honeycomb/sea foam enrobed in chocolate. Good but yeah.

Episode 9: Cadbury Dairy Milk Toffee & Lindt Sea Salt Vanilla Caramel

We meet the infamous Lindt Chocolatiers once again in the octagon as well as British powerhouse Cadbury in this battle royale of life, death, and chocolate. A real struggle for dominance in a land of despair.

Cadbury Dairy Milk Toffee – United Kingdom

Although Hans felt a slight uvula response, they both enjoyed this one. Toffee was a nice ratio to chocolate.

Lindt Creation Sea Salt Vanilla Caramel – Switzerland

Looking for vanilla in this one was a matter of outfitting the tongue with hip waders to get through all the sweetness.
