Quick survey: What is the best solid chocolate bar you’ve ever had? UPDATE: Here are your recommendations ::
- Cote D’Or
- Askinosie (Uncertified Fair Trade but for good reasons)
- Bloomsberry (which I devoured from a schwag bag last fashion week. Indeed it’s delicious.)
- Divine Chocolate (Fair Trade)
- Green & Blacks (Organic and Fair Trade - I buy this all the time!)
Online sources loved:
- Lake Champlain (Forbes)
- See the list from NY Times of brands I’ve never heard of
Note from reader Allison about Fair Trade: ”Buying Fair Trade chocolate is important because much of the world’s chocolate is supplied by means of child labor, slavery, inadequate pay, and environmentally atrocious farming practices. Going Fair Trade means you get a sweet treat while supporting the people who provided it for you and supporting sustainable cocoa farming.”
