Xchocol'art

Here is a company who is doing everything right. Xchocol'Art is a family-owned business who produces chocolates that are ranked among the best in the world.  Xchocol'Art uses only the finest organic and fair trade chocolate. The whole chocolate making process is completely transparent. Just check out their website to see how it's done.  Even their packaging is all made from recyclable materials.

I was recently in Carmel, IN to visit my brother and sister-in-law and their new baby. We went to the local farmers' market where I discovered this little gem. Joann was as sweet as could be and genuinely wanted me to try her chocolate. Here's what I tried:

 

I had to get caramels while in Carmel, Indiana, right? These little passion fruit caramels were divine! The passion fruit caramel was delightfully sweet and tangy and the perfect pairing with 60% dark chocolate. The whole piece is incredibly smooth and satisfying (although I did eat both myself - research for the post, people). The chocolate is good enough to be eaten solely by itself too. I'd LOVE to try more of this line. I like them on Facebook, and you should too! Perhaps the fact that it is organic and fair trade helps me to eat it with a clean conscience. Whatever the reason, I may not know art, but I know what I like. And I like Xchocol'Art.
