Chocolate for Valentine's Day: Green & Black's

variety of green & black's chocolate bars
Don't find yourself scrambling on Valentine's Day for a good gift for the chocolate lover in your life. Get them half a dozen of Green & Black's chocolate bars in the knowledge that happiness is assured when you come with good chocolate in hand. Green & Black's makes a wide variety of high quality, organic chocolate. It's available nationwide and I can even pick several different kinds up at my local corner store (making it perfect for last minute hostess gifts).

If you want something a little more elegant than a simple bar, Green & Black's also individually-wrapped chocolate coins that come packaged in tall, slender boxes.

You generally can't go wrong with chocolate!

Green & Blacks doesn't melt very well, especially their white chocolate which has a tendancy to seize, even when heated over a very low heat.

I didn't know that Cadbury owned Green and Black, now I think they will try to make it more better, I love Cadbury, There are several offers for Valentines Day the most I like is Free International Calls from Vopium on Valentines Day, I think Green and Black chocolates with Free Calls really brings cheers to V. Day celebrations :)

That said, I agree with Uncontrol -- their Maya Gold is amazing.

The first thing Cadbury did with Green and Black was to change the production recipe to make it so that it was no longer vegan. Many vegans who choose it because it met their dietary standards are unaware of this. We'll see what happens with hershey's ownership but its interesting that the name Hershey appears no where on the Dagoba website. Given Hershey's history of turning a blind eye to child slave labor, it is a big PR coup for them to now have a claim to Dagoba's internal culture of adhering to internationally recognized moral standards.
