FATSO Drunk’n Monkey is the brand's latest dark chocolate bar created with tropical tastes and textures in mind to provide consumers with the optimal option to try out this summer.
The bar is crafted with a 60% cocoa content with banana chips, spiced rum and salted crackers in the mix to give it a sweet, textural profile. The bar is headed to the brand's website now with independent retailers and wholesalers receiving stock in the months ahead. The chocolate sets itself apart from the competition with its single origin recipe and unexpected flavors to work well for curious foodies.
Co-Founder Ella McKay commented on the FATSO Drunk’n Monkey bar saying, "There’s no monkeying around with this flavour! We’ve carefully combined a tropical trio of ingredients and covered it in our delicious single-origin dark chunky chocolate. The outcome is both tasty and tipsy! As always, we continue on our mission to prove that dark chocolate doesn’t have to be all seriousness and restraint and we’re so excited to be bringing another new flavour into the FATSO fold.”
