Fantastic site! I was hoping that some chocolate enthusiast here could pipe in and go over what is involved with a review of a chocolate bar.
When you purchase chocolate bar, how do you evaluate it? Aroma? Taste? Texture? Packaging?
All thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric

I can only speak for myself, but for me it's more the brand that initially draws me in than the packaging (although eye-catching wrappers are good!) For example, I'm more likely to try a new Cadbury bar than a no-name one, although I like to try anything new so that's not much that doesn't get taste tested by me! As for whether I'll buy a bar again, it's down to taste, but that said I do think it helps if a bar looks nice (the chocolate itself rather than the wrapper).
Hope this helps

So, you are most likely to choose a known brand and then when evaluating the chocolate you go by straight taste?
Are you concerned with texture or aroma?
Just trying to get a handle on this. I judge other food, but not chocolate and I was hoping for some input on what goes into evaluating quality chocolate.
Thanks for the input!
