Taste test notes
u0026#149; Dark chocolate colour creates an interesting contrast to the white cross, but shape uneven and distorted. Dark choc implies good chocolate flavour and while it has a good chocolate aroma the chocolate flavour is not apparent.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Dark appearance.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Looks like it'll be super sweet and decadent but isn't. Barely any chocolate chips.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Deep cocoa scent. Soft uniform texture but no choc chips. Toasting gives slight chew. Flavour is suprisingly bland and slightly bitter.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Cacao bun, not really chocolatey, choc chips have all melted into the bun, good aroma of chocolate but flavour really lacking.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Visually looks great. Expectation is big chocolate flavour but you don't get it. Lacking chocolate chips.u003cbru003e
