Comments

Taste test notes
  • "Chocolate pieces are evenly distributed. There's chocolate aroma but it smells artificial." n
  • "When cut the aroma was quite good and not like a gluten free product." n
  • "When toasted the chocolate was enhanced and improves the product." n
  • "Not very natural, chemical flavour." n
  • "When toasted there's better aroma, the bun holds itself together better but it's not very chocolatey and still lingering with a chemical flavour."
