Absolute Black with Orange & Cocoa Nibs

The crunch from those cocoa nibs is the star here—it turns each square into a little texture party. I love how the orange essential oil cuts the bitterness without any added sugar, so it tastes dark but not punishing. Finished the whole 90g bar in two sittings, no regrets.

I was bracing for a bitter chalky square, but the orange oil cuts through the cocoa so the chocolate actually tastes fruity and almost sweet. The cocoa nibs give it a satisfying crunch that makes one square feel like a proper treat.

The cocoa nibs give it this lovely crunch that keeps you going back for another square, and the orange oil cuts through the dark chocolate beautifully. It's intense, but the sweetness from the nibs balances it just enough.
