Dick Taylor - Chocolate Coated Almonds

Organic California almonds, delicately roasted and then coated layer upon layer in Dick Taylor's 65% Tanzania dark chocolate using traditional coating pans. Each small batch is finished with a dusting of cocoa powder. The process is slow and deliberate, building thin layers of chocolate around each almond for a perfectly balanced ratio of nut to chocolate in every bite.

This is a confection that looks simple but rewards attention. The Tanzania cacao brings earthy depth that complements the roasted almond beautifully, and the cocoa powder finish adds a final touch of bitterness. Made bean-to-bar in Eureka, California. 6 oz bag. This is one of those products that turns first-time visitors into regulars.
