Vosges Mo's Cinnamon & Sugar Bar

Short Description

Cinnamon sugar. Hickory smoked uncured bacon. Dark chocolate. 62% cacao. US inspected and passed by Department of Agriculture. How to Enjoy an Exotic Chocolate Bar: Breath. Engage your senses. Take three deep ujjayi breaths, quiet the chattering mind and be centered in the present moment. See. Notice the color and glossy shine of the chocolate bar indicating a strong temper yielding a tight bond between the cocoa butter and the cocoa mass. Do you see the mahogany tones imparted by the smokey cinnamon and bacon? Smell. Gently rub your thumb on the chocolate bar's surface to warm the volatiles and release the tree spice and roasted bacon aromas. Inhale deeply. Snap. Break the bar in two pieces. Listen to the intensity of the break, exposing the sugar crystals and caramelized bacon. Taste. Place a small piece of chocolate on your tongue and press it to the roof of your mouth. A texture of rough sugar, silken cinnamon and rotund bacon catches your attention. Within thirty seconds the chocolate will release a bouquet of smokey treasure, crunching and melting on your palate. I was very inspired to bring the idea of cinnamon sugar toast with smoked bacon together. It seem like a natural in my mind that these two decadent breakfast moments merge into one savoury, aromatic and sweet chocolate experience. Peace, love, and chocolate. -Katrina.
