Rococo Bee Bar –Dark Chocolate Earl Grey Tea

Rococo Bee Bar –Dark Chocolate Earl Grey Tea

This is from the same range as the sea salt chocolate, and is another of their ornate miniature bars.
I forgot to mention just how prettily packaged this chocolate is, it is even moulded with a bee design in every piece. It is definitely going for a luxury - to be savoured- style, rather than a quick chocolate fix. The flavours reflect this too. Earl grey, who'd have thought of that for a combination? At first I though it was almost an amusing cliché. We want a posh chocolate, what do posh people drink? Earl Grey!
However, I pushed my cynicism aside, and found this chocolate is beautiful. The dark cocoa and the sweet tang of earl grey are a good match, and this, unlike the sea salt, was rather morish.
