Feletti Cioccolatto Fondente Ghana


This is the third of the three chocolate bars that I got by the Italian chocolatier Feletti. This one features cacao beans from the African nation of Ghana. The cacao content is at 65%, and the ingredient listing, like the other two, is good, cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, soya lecithin and natural vanilla.



How did it taste? Like the Tanzanian bar, the bar doesn't seem to be entirely well tempered, it was a little chalky, and didn't snap well, but it tasted good enough that I enjoyed it. I think I enjoyed this even more than the Tanzanian bar. I would, if I could find a source for it, buy this bar again.

Feletti Cioccolato Fondente Ecuador


I have again and again talked about chocolate made from cacao beans from Ecuador, most have been good, some not so good. This offering from the Italian chocolatier Feletti is in the not so good category (better was their Tanzania bar). The cacao content is very good, at 73%. The ingredient listing is also good, cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, soya lecithin as an emulsifier and natural vanilla.



How does it taste? It's an okay dark chocolate, though I think that they didn't do the cacao beans justice, my bar was chalky in taste, didn't melt that well in my mouth, and didn't snap very well (so, likely not tempered very well). I don't think that I would purchase this bar again.

Feletti Dark Chocolate Tanzania


I have a tie to Tanzania, my father was born there, so I'm always intrigued by products from there. This, hopefully, single-source dark chocolate bar, at 75% cacao content, features cacao beans from Tanzania (and I say hopefully, because there is no indication on the packaging that this is true), and is made by the Italian chocolatier Feletti. The ingredient listing is pretty good, cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, soya lecithin as an emulsifier and natural vanilla.



How does it taste? Pretty good, a good dark chocolate, smells quite good, but it doesn't snap very well (not well-tempered?). I think that I would buy this bar again.
