REVIEW! Willie's Cacao Dark Chocolate with Luscious Orange
Posted on the 21 February 2015 by Thereviewaddict @TheReviewAddictI spotted this bar from Willie's Cacao when I was doing my Ocado shop the other day. I've not tried any chocolate from Willie's but I remember watching a documentary a few years back featuring Willie and found it fascinating.
This little 50g bar was £1.80 and contains 282 calories, it is also suitable for veggies. I was attracted to the simple packaging and I've always preferred orange with dark chocolate rather than milk. Apparently this chocolate is made "bean to bar", not something that really bothers me if I am honest, I am all about the taste but apparently this is a big deal so thought I would mention it.
The bar is in once piece, wrapped in simple gold foil and embossed with Willie's logo. It had a slightly shiny appearance and broke with a nice snap. The chocolate tasted strong but it was smooth with no bitterness whatsoever and the orange flavor was very pleasant, not at all artificial tasting.
Verdict
Although it's a small bar, for me it was just right as the flavours are strong and I find I can't eat a lot of dark chocolate in one sitting. I would definitely buy it again and look forward to trying some other flavours.
