Too Good to Be True? Chocolate That Doesn't Melt and Is Low in Calories

"The bar's creators want to use it to tackle a growing problem: In Western Europe and North America, chocolate consumption has leveled off and, in some cases, begun to decline. In the past year, consumers in the eight largest western European countries consumed 2 percent less chocolate. In the US, consumption decreased by 8 percent. Under these circumstances, manufacturers are forced to rely on emerging markets for future profits.

The calorie-reduced "Vulcano" will be made available in both bar and cookie form."

YUM! TOBLERONE

great news!

Everlasting Gobbstopper.

Please, bring it on

It's my particular wet dream

Eeeewwww!

My favorite is Lindor Truffles. The shell melts at a slightly higher temperature than the filling, which melts at just under body temperature. This means that if you can resist biting one, the inside is half melted by the time you make it past the shell.

I love dark chocolate, good brand! As i got older, my craving has increased!

Why do I think chocolate is so sexy? OMG, this is a good clip idea. Anyway Jorjor, I was getting really hot over your description of those truffles. YUMMY

Personally, I'm not contributing nor am I in any way responsible for the decline in chocolate consumption.

A few months ago, I saw a documentary on chocolate (I think it was Modern Marvels) and they featured the production of the truffles. After seeing that, I had to have some. Fortunately, there are several places where I can get them.
