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 cloying. Also, the pure chocolates are bland.

Pieces I had:

Must Try: Chocolate mousse, dark chocolate with nuts and dulce de leche, milk chocolate with a peanut cream

Hits: White with almond (nice balance), Semiamargo/bittersweet bar piece (nice to savor, though a little sweet), Milk chocolate with dulce de leche in bear shape (great balance), swiss chocolate (almost a must).

Mediocre/Decent: date, white rama/branch, milk chocolate rama/branch, white chocolate bear with dulce de leche (way too sweet), milk chocolate bar with nuts, milk chocolate with chocolate mousse, dark chocolate with coconut

Misses: milk chocolate with jam (odd mix), milk chocolate in general

Overall score: 2.5/5.0
