Bovetti- honey



Everyone I flashed this big bar to ohhh'ed and ahhhh'ed. It looks expensive, gourmet, and so French. The Bovetti 73% Dark Chocolate with Honey is very grown up. Where is the honey? one might ask, well...you're looking at it. I imagine every Bovetti bar about the same formula, but with a different topping. This one being honey, the honey is rolled into bits and sprinkled about the top as if it's a chocolate bark sweating the honey sap. The chocolate is good, but really this bar is about the toppings. Other interesting topping options at Central Market were jasmine flowers, lavendar, and ginger. The website for this bar features an interesting recipe for cocoa pasta with orange sauce here. The website also references a pretty extensive collection of chocolate bars which include pepper or seeds like anise, poppy or fennel. Not sure I'd like these flavors on top of a bar...but might be worth a sample....?
