Albert Heijn Melk amandel honing chocolade

I was intrigued by the promise of honey and nougat in this bar. It turns out to be remarkably similar to Toblerone with its sticky chips of nougat embedded in sweet milk chocolate, though the ratio of chocolate to nougat is much higher in this bar. I love the honey flavour, but this is way too sweet for everyday eating. Not that that stopped me from eating half the bar this cold morning.

Hazelnut chocolates

I love hazelnuts with chocolate and wonder why it's so hard to find in the Anglo-American world. Lucky I was able to acquire these two huge 200g bars on my recent travels. Just your basic supermarket brands, but I did spring for the whole hazelnuts rather than the shards in cheaper bars. Supposed to be dark chocolate but these are only around 52% cacao. Still better than the regular 30%. The chunkiness of the pieces and the whole hazelnuts create a satisfyingly comfortable and chunky treat.
