Vosges Woolloomooloo Bar

Composition: Roasted & Salted Macadamia Nuts, Indonesian Coconut, Hemp Seeds, 45% Deep Milk Chocolate. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 from Vosges’ site. The bar isn’t the most visually pleasing. As always, I enjoy Vosges’s clean, modern packaging, displaying the bar’s ingredients. I was also impressed with...

Vosges Marzipan Bar

Composition: Sicilian Almond Marzipan, Amaretto, 62% Dark Chocolate. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 from Vosges’ site. This bar looks like a mess. During the shipping process, it broke into two pieces. With most of Vosges’s bars, that’s not quite so problematic. This one, though, is filled with sticky marzipan that...

Vosges Haut Chocolat Truffles

Location: Six Stores in America. Mine was at 951 W. Armitage (at Sheffield), Chicago, IL 60614. Country of Production: USA. Price: 16 pieces for $40 at their online store. Chicago isn’t really known for its chocolates. With such a vibrant culinary scene, though, you’d expect someone to step it up and produce chocolate on par...

Vosges Amalfi Bar

Composition: Lemon Zest, Pink Peppercorn, 36% Cocoa Butter. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 from Vosges’ site. This bar is another beauty from Vosges, coming in an off-white and spotted with pink all over. While the chunks of peppercorn are rather large, the bar is almost completely smooth to the touch, except on the...

Vosges Bapchi’s Caramel Toffee Bar

Composition: Sweet Butter Toffee, Walnuts, Pecans, 45% Deep Milk Chocolate. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 from Vosges’ site. This bar doesn’t quite catch the eye as much as Vosges’ other bars. When I opened my bar, I noticed it had broken into two large even pieces. The break was clean, running evenly along the...

Vosges Creole Bar

Composition: New Orleans Style Chicory Coffee, Cocoa Nibs, 72% Sao Thome Bittersweet Chocolate. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 from Vosges’ site. While the surface of this bar is discolored, Vosges does a good job with the make of the bar. While 72% chocolate, it snaps easily and cleanly into squares. Moreover, it is...

Vosges Peppermint Candycane Bar

Composition: Peppermint Candy Cane, 62% Dark Chocolate. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 from Vosges’ site. The presentation is a mixed bag. While I really enjoy the packaging, which features very Christmas-y strands of peppermint candy cane all over, the bar has less polish than most. The candy cane is minced very finely...

Vosges Cherry Rooibos Bar

Composition: 45% Deep Chocolate, African Rooibos Tea, Dried Michigan Cherries. Region of Production: USA. Price: About $7-$8 for 3 oz./85g. The presentation of the Cherry Rooibos Bar is quite a bit better than what I’m used to from Vosges. Often, I’ve gotten chocolates semi-melted, with chocolate bloom all across the bar....

Vosges Naga Bar

Composition: Sweet Indian Curry Powder, Coconut Flakes, 45% Deep Milk Chocolate. Region of Production: USA. Price: $7.50 at Vosges’ website. The one aspect of this bar that really isn’t all that appetizing is the presentation. It comes in Vosges’ traditional, simple, sturdy box, displaying the ingredients. I’m personally a...

Vosges Haut Chocolat

Cuisine: Chocolate Café. Specialty: Hot Chocolate. Location: Six Stores in America. Mine was at 951 W. Armitage (at Sheffield), Chicago, IL 60614. Price: $5 for a tall glass of hot chocolate. If there’s one weakness I have, it has to be chocolate. Whenever I enter a chocolate store, I always get swept up by all the...
