Godiva Chocolate 85% Dark Chocolate Ganache Bar, 45 g

A real treat to eat, not really for sharing!

I anticipated the arrival of this bar of Ganache secretively relishing the delight of excitedly yet very slowly, devouring the entire 45gm in one glorious melting point of bliss. It is extremely rich, dark and flavoursome chocolate. Elegant and delicious enough to make a nice gift. However, as a treat to myself of the much elusive Ganache bar I was disappointed at how thick the outer layer of rich dark chocolate was compared to the thin inner layer of gooey ganache. Keep on searching.

I had high hopes....and as a chocolate lover I was sooooooo disappointed, and at £3 for a tiny bar it was an expensive mistake!It's the ganache I was after, but that was minimal in volume and because of the amount of dark chocolate surrounding it, the ganache was pretty unremarkable alas :( I like Godiva dark choc (the one with a hint of vanilla, which is a bit elusive it seems) so thought this would be a nice treat...but I'd rather get a 100g bar of decent plain 85% dark to be honest, and pay less.If you need some help to gauge its size and decide if it's worth the investment, think about buying a large 100g bar of chocolate, but paying £6 for it. Would you? Probably not.

Dry, old chocolate bar which I tried a bite of and then disposed of.
