The chocolate is high quality and very smooth. I noticed only a very slight aftertaste when I first tried it, but that quickly disappeared. For me, this is the best sugar-free option out there, and it fits in perfectly with my eating plan. You have to be a dark chocolate fan to enjoy this, but I've always preferred dark chocolate, and I seek out those chocolates with the highest concentration of cocoa (at least 87%). If you love dark chocolate but want to avoid added sugars and sugar alcohols, this is the ticket. The company shipped the product very quickly, and it was well packed for the journey. With expedited shipping, they include ice packs and insulated wrapping. |
393542 | 393542 | B003EMQGVI | A2EFCPGXTMOC9J | Jay Dean | 3 | 3 | 5 | 1311379200 | Best dark chocolate ever! | I was skeptical about how tasty a healthy dark chocolate made with no sweetners other than the purely natural stevia, could actually taste. Well let me tell you if you have an appreciation for dark chocolate you are going to be pleasantly surprised at just how rich,delicious, sweet and creamy these bars actually are. They taste better than the ones with sugar! Please don't go out of business. We low carb people need companies like you that know how to make low carb taste great! Keep up the good work. I would like to see you come up with different varieties however like dark chocolate with mint oil, with chili peppers, orange peel etc. like some of your competitors who don't even know how to make a chocolate bar as good as you guys. |

This one is excellent! Very dark but smooth without being bitter and no weird stevia/metallic aftertaste. I will order again!
By the way, if you are not a dark chocolate fan OR if you are still eating/using products that contain real sugar or other artificial sweeteners, you may not like this product. The sweet taste is different from sugar/AS! |

Boy, this chocolate tastes just wonderful. Can't say enough good things about it. I thought maybe it would taste bitter, with some weird aftertaste or like baking chocolate - nope! Just creamy rich dark chocolate goodness. Seriously, as good as any I've tried. The folks at Dante's are really nice too. I had emailed asking if the stevia they used was pure or with additives like erythritol. I got an actual phone call back from a nice gentleman the next day with the answer - pure stevia. |

They contacted me warning that it would melt in the heat where i live but i said send it anyway. I thought, hey its in foil packing, so if it melts i will just refreeze it, but when i got it I was worried it would be soft but it was still solid. But then i opened it and it was just wrapped in paper! I have never heard of such a packing method for chocolate. I would have been screwed if it had been hot enough, probably would have been dripping out of the box. I suggest they upgrade their shipping method, but leave the recipe alone, the chocolate is delicious! |

Pricey but well worth it - FINALLY chocolate I can eat on my restrictive low carb no sugar diet - I can't have hardly anything on it, but these bars caused no bad reaction in me. Pure chocolate liquor, stevia and vanilla are the only ingredients! The only weird thing is the packaging, I wish they would come with wrappers. Also - I don't feel guilty about my kids having a taste of these zero sugar bars. Wonderful! |

Also, I steer clear of artificial sweeteners and only sweeten things with KAL brand stevia so, when I saw this I was excited due to all the great reviews. Initially, I hated this chocolate, but after a couple of times I got used to the taste and now I like it. I eat it with peanut butter or almond butter, one square does the trick for me. Very impressed! |

I had a question and my email inquiry was answered almost immediately. The chocolate arrived promptly and it was well-packaged.
I love dark, bittersweet chocolate. Keeping that in mind, this chocolate is the only one I've ever tried that really "works" for me. It does have a bittersweet aftertaste, but I don't mind that at all. I'm always watching my sugar intake, and I can't handle the side effects of the sugar alcohols in so many of the other chocolate products.
This chocolate is creamy and satisfying. I find I don't need a whole bar. That would seem like too much. I keep it in the freezer and often eat it with a handful of almonds.
I highly recommend this products and this company. I will be back. |

393551 | 393551 | B003EMQGVI | AFCUNB4UOTXCM | T | 1 | 1 | 5 | 1336003200 | The Search Is Over | This is the best chocolate ever. Just chocolate and stevia and it is creamy and delicious. I have been trying to find chocolate sweetened with just stevia and this fits the bill in every way. My nutritionist says that stevia is the only sweetener I can have, no glycemic index, no calories, it is actually good for you. The only way it could be better is if it was organic. |

If you don't like dark chocolate, then you won't like this. Don't blame the stevia! Dark chocolate is naturally bitter!
That said, I eat this plain. I also just made some awesome gluten, sugar, dairy free cookies, The Cravings Place Create-Your-Own Cake & Cookie Mix, 19-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6), and used one of these bars all crushed up to make chocolate chunk cookies. They baked well-- didn't melt all over the place, but with the extra stevia-sweetened cookie dough, they went over well (even for people who eat regular chocolate chip cookies).
Thanks! I'll be back for more! |

393554 | 393554 | B003EMQGVI | AJMKFACPHUSTT | Vanice | 3 | 4 | 2 | 1331596800 | Bitter taste | I got this product because I was on the HCG diet and wanted a special treat for Valentine's Day. I was really hoping it would be good, but it wasn't. This chocolate can be used in cooking I suppose, if you add some additional sweetener to it. It did not relieve my craving for chocolate. It is very bitter tasting. When I tasted a tiny bite, it was just a little bitter. The bar is divided up into blocks. When I put a block in my mouth, it was awful and I ended up spitting it out. It made me think of taking a spoonful of bitter cocoa and trying to eat it. Also, you have to order such a large amount that it is a huge waste if you don't like it. They should sell individual bars so people can know if they like it before buying such a large quantity. |

The ingredients say "chocolate liquor, stevia" -- not sure what the "liquor" refers to, I'm hoping this is healthy because I eat a lot of it. Whenever I am low on energy or have a headache or am feeling a bit down I have a couple of pieces of this chocolate and it helps. |

This is Great! | I knew when ordering this that stevia has that strange licorice taste, so I was prepared for this to not taste like regular dark chocolate, but since I have to eat a low glycemic diet, and I can't tolerate chemical sweeteners or questionable substitutes like maltitol, I decided to order it. I ate about four little squares per day for the first week and to be honest, I didn't enjoy them very much for the first two days. All I could taste was the stevia. But a strange thing happened which other reviewers have noted. After day three I stopped noticing it and now I'm on my 6th bar (I am a chocoholic) and I LOVE THIS CHOCOLATE! The stevia doesn't bother me at all anymore. I highly recommend this chocolate, especially because it is made with a high cocoa content which provides antioxidants. |

I am used to stevia and love this very much. The ingredients are made up of pure chocolate liquor, stevia, and vanilla extract. Natural and simple. Just a couple of squares will do and doesn't mess with my blood sugar. There are 7 g of fiber and I think 7 g of protein as well. If you are the milk chocolate with sugar or sugar alcohol type of consumer, you probably wont be happy with these but if you like real dark chocolate and like stevia, I think you will be pleased. I will definitely order again. |

However, this chocolate is so uneatable that I threw it away. I ordered these because I do not use any sugar at all (ex long time Candida sufferer) and the only sweeteners that I consume are either Stevia or Xylitol. Never mind how much I tried to like this chocolate, - and trust me I tried!- I ended up throwing it away. I would have given it zero stars.
(On a side note,I was not happy to see the bars wrapped up in common paper and shipped in a common USPS carton box with no extra protection) |

They were were almost bitter tasting. I gave them away to a health nut friend of mine and she couldn't eat them either. Unless you are very fond of carob, I suggest you skip these. I am so desperate for someone to make a really good tasting chocolate candy using stevia. I've looked all over the internet without luck.
There is big opportunity here for an enterprising entrepreneur to make some big bucks. I know there are thousands of people like me who need to eat less sugar (or none at all) who are very aware of the dangers of all the other fake sugars out there. I'd do it, but I'm too old and don't have the ambition.
So until someone out there gets rich by doing just that, I guess I'm stuck with trying to make my own - so I bought a stevia cook book on Amazon. |

I would recommend that you test varying amounts of garlic to use even though the flavor is mild. I love the taste of garlic and undoubtedly use more than most.
