Editor’s Choice: Mayana Chocolate



I had the pleasure of testing three very unique, luxurious and indulgent chocolate bars this week from Mayana Chocolate: The Fix Bar, The Kitchen Sink Bar and The Space Bar. The first thing that I noticed was the beautiful composition and design of each piece, more like a work of art that I didn’t want to mess up! And the size of each bar was so thick and filling, making for a rich, chocolate bite that I just had to share with my family.

The Fix Bar (my favorite) consisted of Vanilla Bean, Shortbread, Fleur De Sel Caramel and 66 percent Dark Chocolate. I could really taste that pop of salt that counter-balanced the sweetness of the chocolate and caramel. Each bite was like a nice little surprise on my tongue.

The Kitchen Sink Bar was an explosion of flavors, with Pretzel, Milk Chocolate, Crisp Rice, Peanut Butter, Fleur De Sel Caramel and 66 percent Dark Chocolate. Just like its name, it has everything you could possibly crave in one sweet snack.

The Space Bar was very satisfying with Toasted Almond Nougat, Vanilla Bean, Fleur De Sel Caramel, and 66 percent Dark Chocolate. One heavenly bite was followed by another.

Mayana Chocolates is the winner of several awards and its line of artisan candy bars features the same artisan techniques and ingredients as its fine chocolates. You can really taste the passion that goes into these beautiful, indulgent bars. They were an exquisite taste experience.
