Valentine's Day is almost here and Trader Joe's is marking the occasion with a special treat: its new Dark Chocolate Strawberry Bar.
Trader Joe's already offers a range of dark chocolate bars, but the latest addition features a delicious twist. The new Dark Chocolate Strawberry Bar features "a velvety base of dark chocolate made with 58% cacao encases a lusciously sweet filling of strawberry juice concentrate, strawberry powder, and natural strawberry flavor." The whole bar is then studded with freeze-dried strawberries ensuring that every bite has a sweet, slightly crunchy element to it.
Perhaps best of all is the fact that the packaging is just as pretty as the chocolate bar itself. Each bar is wrapped in a pink, strawberry & paisley-patterned print that make it perfect for gift-giving.
