Come on have a dark experience with me, a piece of Cote d'or Experiences 70% Cocoa.
I love dark chocolates and this is no exception. You can buy a 100g bar in Tescos for £1.29p. This bar is wrapped seductively in a dark card wrapper with gold writing. It looks like a glimmer of light is falling on a picture square of chocolate.

I open the packet and reveal a dark coloured chocolate. This chocolate is quite a thin layer not thick and chunky.
The squares are quite large not many in the bar, 6 or was it 8 squares in this 100g bar. It is possible to break each square into a smaller piece.
The chocolate is quite brittle.

Pop a square into your mouth and the flavour is dark and intense. The chocolate smooth and silky on your tongue There is a crisp outer shell of chocolate which when bitten breaks into the rich dark chocolate centre.
This chocolate is not oversweet it is slightly bitter and I get a hint of red fruits. Some of you who do not like dark chocolate much will find this chocolate very intense a bit bitter. I love it. One advantage of this strong tasting dark chocolate is that I do not feel the need to eat a whole bar in one sitting as the flavour is so intense a few squares at a time will suffice.

A treat I like is to eat a square or two of this dark chocolate with a glass of red wine or a glass of port the flavours complement each other deliciously.

Calories. Lots 180 per 30 g.
I also found out there may be traces of egg and nut in this bar.

Cote D'or was first made in Belgium 100 years ago, named after the gold coast Ghana where the cocoa beans for the chocolate came from. This company is now owned by Kraft foods the website has some good recipes for chocolate treats see http://www.cotedor.co.uk/cotedor/page ?siteid=cotedor-prd&locale=uken1&PagecRef= 727..

Do I recomend this chocolate ? Yes When you next buy some pass me a piece . 
