Trader Joe's is expanding its Pound Plus Chocolate Bar lineup with the debut of its new Pound Plus Milk Chocolate Bar with Almonds.
Like all of the Pound Plus bars, the new Pound Plus Milk Chocolate Bar with Almonds is made from high-quality, melt-in-your-mouth Belgian milk chocolate crafted by a well-known artisan confectioner just outside of Antwerp. More specifically, the chocolate contains 33% cocoa solids, which gives it a dreamy chocolate taste. What also makes this particular bar so unique is that it's studded with a special almond crunchy that not only adds a textural element, but also a delicious nutty flavor.
Perfectly portioned into 8x5 squares and scored for each division, Trader Joe's Pound Plus Milk Chocolate Bar with Almonds is perfect for gifting or sharing.
