I'm not even going to try to deny the fact that I have a sweet tooth. I'm constantly battling my craving for sweets and am the person you'll find rummaging through the cabinets, fridge and freezer at all hours of the night on the hunt for something to ease the cravings. From ice cream to candy to fruit and chocolates, if it's sweet I'm going indulge in at least a little bit of it. Or maybe a lot, it just depends on the force of my cravings. One of my favorite ways to indulge my sweet tooth is to treat myself to fancy chocolates. Really, any kind of chocolate will do in a pinch but I do have quite the soft spot for the types of chocolate that can't easily be found on the shelves of my local grocery.
About BROOKSIDE ChocolatesI did however make an exception when I was given the opportunity to partner with Brookside to review some of their chocolates. Founded in 1954 in British Columbia's Fraser Valley, BROOKSIDE has spent the years developing their patented technology used to create their soft, sweetened fruit flavored treats. Their 3 flavors include Acai, Pomegranate and Goji and don't disappoint in terms of deliciousness. Each of the 3 flavors they offer at BROOKSIDE contain only the best ingredients to get the best taste and quality possible.
BROOKSIDE creates extraordinary delicious dark chocolate-covered snacks as well as wonderful bars. BROOKSIDE also offers a wide assortment of sweet treats to choose from and has something to suit every taste. From their chocolate covered snacks to their Fruit & Nut Bars, they has made it their mission to craft only the best and most delicious snacks for their customers. My favorite products to date, if I had to pick one category that they specialize in, I would say it's definitely their chocolate-covered goodies.
Their Fruit Flavored Centers boast exotic fruit and berry flavors that blend with smooth dark chocolate to create a light and refreshing treat that is both rich and rewarding. The different flavors include:
Of course, the Dark Chocolate covered Crunchy Clusters are also worth sampling while you're at it. The crispy and crunchy morsels come together for a delicious combination of taste and texture that will leave you craving more. The Crunchy Clusters varieties include:
