Fenoglio (Museo de Chocolate)

Fenoglio Artisanal Chocolate Producer/Chocolate Museum Av Bustillo 1200, San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina Very good overall. Flavors, especially the creams and dulce de leche are just right. Good bittersweet chocolate pieces, and great use of nuts and swirls. The main flaw is in the sweetness. There is so much that it’s...

Cadbury Milk Chocolate Bar

Cadbury Milk Chocolate Bar As found in Argentina This chocolate bar was tasted in Argentina, so it might be an Argentine version. It’s a bit on the hard side. It’s also very rich, creamy, sugary, and sweet. It’s kind of cloying and certainly would be if I didn’t eat only 2 pieces of it. Nice melt, though, and it has a...

Bonifacio

Bonifacio Artisanal Chocolate Producer Located at Mitre 171, Bariloche, Argentina Good pieces with chunks/nuts in them, but horrible quality in general. The chocolate is overly sweet, to the point of being cloying, especially in the case of the milk chocolate. Only good for fruity/unique pieces. Pieces I had: Hits: Frutilla con...

Abuela Goye White Chocolate Bar

Abuela Goye, White Chocolate Bar Buenos Aires and Bariloche, Argentina 20 Argentine pesos, or about $6. 2 for 30 pesos, or $10. It’s a nice bar, very finely tempered, and it’s as solid as a rock. You need to bite this one—it’s not going to melt on you. It does have a nice munch to it, though, with a sweetness that’s just...

Cadbury Intense Dark Chocolate Bar

Cadbury Intense Dark Chocolate Bar As found in Argentina Again, this bar was tasted in Argentina, so it might be an Argentine version. Actually, it’s nice for a cheap bar. Cadbury is always too sweet, as is the case here. But the dark chocolate bitterness adds some needed balance. The creaminess of the lecithin is very...
