Recchiuti S'Mores Bites

This blog is focused on unadulterated dark chocolate. Some are commercial, some are artisan, many are imported.

Recchiuti makes a wonderful dark chocolate, and even a really good milk chocolate. They have many other excellent quality products, but one I find myself buying frequently is the S'Mores Bites. It comes as a four-piece package, and sells for $8 -- that's $2 a Bite! And a bite is about as big as they are. I usually get three good bites out of each one.

Maybe you've tried to make your own S'mores. Recchiuti makes a S'Mores kit, so I bought one to give it a try. The kit comes with the necessary parts: a bar of dark chocolate; graham crackers; and marshmallows. You can make a really nice S'more from the kit, but at $22 it's pricey. I tried assembling my own kit from other brand graham crackers and marshmallows, and the results were pretty lame. Recchiuti makes their own marshmallows, which are also sold separately ($20 for 24 pieces), but not the crackers. Most graham crackers available at the grocery are thin, not able to standup to the rigors of being used for making S'mores.

But even the results of the Recchiuti S'Mores kit are poor compared to the finished product, their S'Mores Bites. One marshmallow sits on one small square of graham cracker, and the entire ensemble is enrobed in Recchiuti dark chocolate. It is the best.

Their website says that it's a seasonal product, so get'em while they last.
