Sarotti Grand Chocolat Pekan-nuss


I love pecans. They are a real treasure of the nut world, similar to walnuts, but sweeter. I looked forward to this bar, because pecans are rare in Germany, with hazelnuts and almonds being the most used nuts instead.

The dark chocolate and the pecans did not work well together. Sarotti tried to pep
things up a bit by caramelizing the pecans, but it didn't help. I detected crunchiness, but no caramel flavor. The nuts were overwhelmed by the chocolate, which made it just a bar that was so-so.

All in all, I'm finding that Sarotti isn't a standout among budget chocolates.
