Dark Chocolate Coffee Buzz Bar: 8/10
🚨NEW ITEM🚨 Coffee and chocolate are two of my favorite things! Anyone else? 🙋🏻♀️ Combine the two like #traderjoes did here in this brand new chocolate bar, and you have a sure fire combo that almost has to be delicious. I was curious how strong the coffee taste would be in this bar, and I can tell you the coffee flavor is very prominent! There are 70mg of caffeine in each bar so this makes sense. The bar itself smells like coffee as soon as you open it up and the chocolate tastes 50/50 like chocolate and coffee. The taste reminded me a lot of the chocolate covered espresso beans TJ’s sells just with a smoother texture. I’m glad they chose to do this bar in dark chocolate because I think the slight bitterness of both the coffee and chocolate went very nicely together. The chocolate had just the right amount of creaminess to balance out this bitterness without being overly sweet and melted in my mouth. I am going to make my espresso tomorrow morning over a piece of this chocolate and let them melt together! Each bar is $1.99 and has 4 smaller bars inside.
Have you tried this yet? What did you think?
I thought it was tasty but could use more coffee flavor!

I’m thinking this is something I would eat right before my workout

@susanckemp
LOVED THESE i wish i bought two bars
I thought this was a great balance of coffee & dark chocolate. I liked the smaller bars—just the right amount! 👍🏼
@ms.atabron we need to try this!
They used to sell something similar on my college campus, and since graduating I’ve been trying to find something like this!
I liked this buuuuttt – they used to have “Trader Joe’s After Dark Choclate Squares” and those were so much better. They were so silky smooth and delicious. I hope they bring them back one day!

Those inner bars are TINY considering each packs the caffeine mg equivalent of a Red Bull! (which is about 1/2 the mg’s of a cup of drip coffee). Glad the flavor is balanced. Love the packaging!
The most amazing thing I have ever tried. Perfect bite specially after lunch to recharge 🔥🔥🔥

I’ve got to try these. We had pocket coffee in Italy and the coffee flavor there was also strong but good. Can’t find it here but these bars sound similar. Yum

Thank you for the review! I tried these as well. The chocolate is good but could use more coffee flavor.
