Hey, chocolate lovers! Today, I’m diving into something a little tropical with Theo’s Coconut 70% Dark Chocolate bar. Let me tell you, I’m always intrigued when I see coconut paired with dark chocolate—it’s one of those flavor combos that, when done right, can be absolutely divine.
First off, Theo gets points for ethics. It’s fair trade, organic, and made with clean, simple ingredients. That’s always a win in my book. The packaging gives off a feel-good vibe, and it’s reassuring to know the chocolate I’m eating isn’t just delicious but also sourced responsibly.
Now, let’s talk taste. The chocolate itself is solid—rich and dark with just the right amount of sweetness to let the cacao shine. The coconut adds a subtle tropical note, but here’s the thing: it’s a little too subtle. I was hoping for a bold, in-your-face coconut flavor to balance out the darkness of the chocolate, but it came across as more of an afterthought.
And the texture? This is where I had a bit of an issue. There’s a slight chalkiness to the chocolate that threw me off. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it definitely stands out compared to smoother bars I’ve tried. When you’re eating chocolate, you want that melt-in-your-mouth creaminess, and this one fell short of that.
Overall, it’s a good bar but not great. If you’re into fair trade, organic chocolate with a clean ingredient list, it’s worth a try. But for me, I wanted the coconut to pop more and the texture to be a bit more refined.
That said, it’s still miles ahead of the junk masquerading as chocolate (looking at you, Hershey’s). If you’ve tried Theo’s coconut bar or have another coconut chocolate recommendation, let me know—I’m always on the hunt for my next chocolate obsession.
Until next time, stay tropical.
