My order arrived. I even got the Brains & Eggs bar.. bring on the prions! All the flavors sound good, im excited to try them
>>22219412>enhanced with caramelized pork brainWhat the?I first thought that was just a funny name, but it apparently is actually brain? Brain in chocolate? Why?
>>22219415Yea i got it thinking it was just a gimmick name to describe the texture or something but then I googled it and found it contaisn actual pork brain. Im nervous to try it so I may gift it to a daring friend or anon
>>22219412I have been eyeing that brain and egg bar autistically for weeks. Something about the art. Let us know how it all tastes
Found this article about the Brains and Eggs bar. It was quite controversialhttps://natlawreview.com/press-releases/zotter-chocolates-release-new-chocolate-flavor-brains-eggs-sparks
Better you than me. Enjoy your egg and brain and other assorted nonsense, anon.
>>22219412how much was it? include shipping in the total please
>>22219456The shipping was free
Also if you are wary about potential prions, the WHOLE of Zotter would now have to be avoided because potential contamination of their machines.
>>22219472I was just kidding about the prisons. Pork cannot contract the protein that causes prions like in beef cattle
>>22219490Prions*
>>22219412Pork brains are generally safe since they don't have anything like mad cow disease but they can get prion diseases if fed tainted feed, which usually only happens if they are fed random slop on a farm.
>>22219424>buys the overpriced hipster chocolate>doesn't want to try out the niche hipster chocolate flavorsWhy even get it then?
>>22219412this is the first exciting /ck/ thread in years and I'm not joking. hope you're not a fag and do a proper review of the brain chocolate
>>22219552Because i can and I very clearly explained already in the same post you replied to lol. Rest assured im going to try it>>22219556I'll try my best when I finally gwt around to opening it
>>22219469Are you ready to discover yourself? Once you go black you never go back
>>22219556>excited by craft chocolate
>>22219580I wasn't very rested in an assured manner from your previous post because you said you might just gift it away, but I'm glad I inspired you.
>>22219610Dont you worry anymore im going to try it. This >>22219556 anon really inspired me to man up>>22219594It is very fine chocolate
>>22219412I’d try all of them except the brain and egg one. I’m a little surprised at the thinness of the chocolate shell on the filled chocolates (but I don’t take issue with it)
>>22219594Dude. Motherfucking pork brain and supercalifragilisticuntfucking egg in a chocolate bar. Cmon.
>>22219556he didn't cook it himself
>>22219666they sell pork brains on Amazon it's not exactly a risky move to eat pork brains.
>>22219556>excited over a literal advertisement threadkill yourself.
>>22220076I had the butter caramel tonight and honestly I understand the hype. Its was fucking delicious>>22220158No shit I already clarified that in my prior post. Pork doesnt contain the protein to cause prions.. stop harping >>22220162This isnt an "advertisement" thread despite how much you want it to be. I wanted to try the stuff and share the experience
I want to try this one but they havent had it in stock for awhile
>>22220297Is the chocolate very high quality or just the combo was delicious? Do you know what high-quality chocolate should taste like?
>>22221309Both and yes I do, thanks for the comment
>>22220301holy pseud...
I worked in corporate finance for awhile before making the change to becoming a CPA the firm I worked at and others would have these present in lobbies and conference rooms to enjoy while waiting. They were really good and i remember taking bars or asking for them justnto trade with colleagues
>>22221309 If you have to ask then you clearly do not know.. zotter is world renownedhttps://www.zotter.at/en/about-zotter/biography/awards
I almost ordered from them but ended up ordering cocoa beans and butter so I can just make my own goodies.
>>22219412this is a meme product.t Autrian
>>22221572Hadrian, how nice to meet you. Did you enjoy crushing the rebellion in judea?
>>22221539You ordered butter or cocoa butter? It's a big difference when it comes to making chocolate
>>22221572So you're a Muslim immigrant got it
>>22221576What do you think is more likely; I ordered a common ingredient not required to make chocolate which most everyone already has in their kitchen and is not worth mentioning within this context, or I ordered the uncommon ingredient that is required to make chocolate?
>>22221590You're clearly a fucking idiot and you ordered fuck all. What a silly little cunt.
>>22221590Sound like youre trying to save face bc you should have specified in the original post you made. You orderdd fucking kerrygold like a moron lol
>>22221530>If you have to ask then you clearly do not knowWe got a genius logician here.
>>22221598Its very high quality chocolate lol
>>22221591>>22221592So what tasty confections have you made recently? I just finished making picrel. Dates mixed with coconut, pecans, and citrus zest wrapped around various chocolate covered dried berries and then rolled in cocoa powder. They are quite tasty and difficult to photograph, at least with my phone.
>>22221309Zotter is small batch craft chocolate not mass produced such as brands like Tony's
>>22221628I dont make chocolates and never claimed to. Next time just take the extra time to specify the important details.. as someone who clearly cares about making chocolate you should have mentioned cocoa butter specifically bc you sounded questionable
>>22221628Slice one open for us they all look quite uniformly round for what is essentially just dates stuffed with chocolate coated berries
>>22221639Sorry anon, I am not autistic and don't feel the need to write like I am. I don't really care about making this stuff and rarely do it, too damn time consuming, those things took like 3 hours total from beginning to end, coating things like dried blueberries in chocolate is kind of a hassle. Once a month or so I just get the urge for something sweet and make do with what I have in the kitchen. Next time I get the urge I will have cocoa beans and butter to play with, should be fun. >>22221643>they all look quite uniformly round for what is essentially just dates stuffed with chocolate coated berriesBaking dates/date paste. The coconut, pecans (coarse ground) and citrus zest were kneaded into the paste, roll it flat, cut into squares, chocolate covered berry in the center of each square, fold shut and then roll between your hands until round and toss into coca powder. I will take a picture of a sliced one tomorrow if I remember, just finished cleaning up.
>>22221628Sounds like a slightly better RXBAR
>>22219428Its a random as hell flavor. I have no idea how you would come up with that as a flavor for a chocolate.
for me its sacramental wine+incense
>>22221606why would you buy a product from a chocolate company that has almost no chocolate?
>>22222189Why are u gay?
Is that a Chair you have them laid on? Absolutely gross
>>22221777Checked and yes they did it bc they could
>>22222219No its a trunk and not used as a seat
>>22222226Ok great
>>22222216I'm not gay or a woman and that's why if I bought a product from a chocolate producer that product would be chocolate
>>22222357No one cares what you would do lol I purchased it because I wanted it and can afford to do so
>>22222357This bar is just chocolate and an award winning variety at that
>>22222366>pic
>could just have a comfy and interesting chocolate thread>OP is a touchy fag that ruins it with petty arguing at every little commentA story as old as time.>>22221628These look very nice, looking forward to seeing the inside.
>>22222369Labubu?
>>22222362I can afford to be retarded too but I choose not to
>>22222189That's what I was wondering. Seems like they just make good fillings and use minimal amounts of chocolate to hide the fact it's bad chocolate.
>>22222377Not OP majority of posters have been talking shit from the start but OP was retarded for feeding them. Now look at this thread completely derailed
>>22222172Thats wild.. how did it taste? Cool concept
>>22222172Jesus christ the guy coming up with all this stuff must be having the time of his life
>>22222395Wow i hope you dont actually believe this
>>22222742Yeah I agree, people being shitheads but he should have been chill about it or just ignored them and the thread probably could have turned out well.
>>22222172They only sell those during christmas or easter, i need to get one.
>>22222395they also sale plain chocolate bars up to 100% cacao, you ca even buy bars with beans from different regions.
>>22222172that's how chocolate in darkest dungeon tastes
Tonight's delicacy
>>22219412>Tender-melting, heavenly raspberries. A berry-red fruit bar that tastes wonderfully of fresh raspberries. No wonder, because they are almost the only ingredient, alongside fine raw cane sugar and pure cocoa butter, enhanced with just a dash of lemon and Bourbon vanilla. It’s pure fruit power!This one looks and sounds wonderful. Would try
>>22224108Flavor sounds good, what did you think of it?
>>22224376Just woke up. Good morning anons. I would give the peanut caramel bar a 7/10 not nearly as good as the butter caramel imo. The dark chocolate was great, very smooth with a perfect snap to every bite. It held up well without melting while being handled at room temp while quickly and effortlessly melting in your mouth making chewing hardly a chore. The praline was softer than I expected and paired well with the ganache making for a smooth glide through every bite. The caramelized peanuts added the much needed bit of crunch and nutty earthiness to harmonize the intensity of the dark chocolate. It was great overall and I had no complaints. It could only have improved on adding more caramelized peanuts to the fray
>>22223486Marked my calendar im not missing this one
>>22220629this probably tastes good. You can get chocolate covered bacon at a lot of state fairs
>>22219415they're all about making interesting flavors.This is one of their better ones. If youvisit their factory, they talk abouy how they still haven't figured out fish flavor.
>>22224373Guys, my Girlfriend tricked meShe said she had Raspberry Swirl, but it turns out girl pussy is just period vagina. I'm going to be sick.
>>22219412>>22219415Where's the crunchy frog?>>22219490>>22219494Pork has different brain-destroying prions. Just because it's not "BOVINE spongiform encephalopathy" doesn't mean you can't get infected by pork prions that will kill you eventually.Here's an article about just exactly that:https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2011/06/hormel-spam-pig-brains-disease/tl;dr: a pork meatpacking plant in MN killed a bunch of its illegal alien workers due to aerosolized pig brains spreading unknown prions to them.
>>22219518>>22220297>Pork doesnt contain the protein to cause prions.See >>22224948 you brain-damaged retard, it can and does have other prions that are just as dangerous. "Prion" isn't cow-specific, it's any misfolded protein that causes damage. There are different prions in cows, pigs, and even squirrels that are known to cause human neurological problems, and deer also can have prion diseases that so far aren't known for killing humans. Not even getting into kuru, which is a human-centric prion disease that cannibals in PNG were dying from when they ate the brains of the people they killed.
>>22224948>>22224958>motherJones Lol. N they dont naturally contain prions and are only susceptible to recieving them under experimental laboratory acquired conditions where they are purposefully infected. There has never been a reported case of pigs naturally developing prions... try again https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12421853/
Holy shit now I understand why OP was being a dickhead before. You guys suck. Its nothing but constant bitching and snide remarks.
>5 yurobux for pig brain chocolatelol
>>22224958You have to be legitimately brain damaged to use Mother Jones as a source.

>>22224948>>22224958Google AI says this
>>22220076You should take issue with it, because the filling is not chocolate, only the shell and if i'm reading that correctly, the shell is only 50% milk chocolate.. That is some cheap arse bullshit pretending to be bougie.Fucking lo, you got ripped the fuck off for not even chocolate. "Chocolate must contain a legal minimum of 20% total cocoa solids in New Zealand and Australia, though international standards and different chocolate types vary."
>>22225274>one of the most renowned brands isnt selling real chocolate You have no idea what youre talking about. Thanks for the comment though
>>22224983>>22225265Look at the big brains on Messrs. Dunning and Kruger!They think that>have not been reportedis the same thing as >cannot possibly have anyThe illegal aliens inhaling aerosolized pig brains would love to know that there is no possible way they were infected by a previously unknown prion, I'm sure. Why don't you go to Mexico and dig them up out of their graves and tell them that.As far as AI responses, in another thread I had to spend close to 20 minutes googling different keywords to find the generic name of a medication that had been discontinued in the 1970s. One of the AI "responses" was to tell me that it was a brand name for febuxostat, a completely different medication that has "sudden death" as a listed side-effect.
>>22225341>one of the most renowned brandsYou have no idea what youre talking about
>>22223486remind me to go out to the shop in two months
>>22225683>Georg Bernardini ranked Zotter among the Top 25 chocolatiers in the world. Bernardini gave the brand his highest praise, declaring Zotter "by far the most innovative chocolatier of all" and naming its Labooko Nicaragua 50% the best milk chocolate in the world.
The Candied Almond bar was a real treat. The outside appeared more rippled than the last bar and the milk chocolate gave much easier with each bite lending itself to a velvety texture with a soft milky sweetness that evened out into bittersweet notes reminiscent of the bean which it came. The almond brittle stood wedged between a layer praline and white chocolate, it was the perfect crunch to accompany the praline paste that held it firm like a faceted gem. The brittle held its crunch but easily dissolved into a pool of warm caramel-almond nutty bliss somehow engineered not to stick to your teeth. The praline was silky smooth much like the last bar but much more pronounced in flavor. In total I'm giving this bar an 8/10. I enjoyed it much more than the Peanut Caramel but still less than the Butter Caramel.
>>22225785See? That's what I mean lol
>>22225683>is continuously recognized and winning awards for his family made chocolates >unapologetically mogs anons shit taste and disregards any criticism leveled at him >is the real life willy Wonka Yea im thinking based
NOT MUH HECKIN ZOTTER BARS

>>22219469>only double the euro priceWould have expected worse, given the prices another fellow Styrian asks for in his new US venture. They’ve got a lot of fantastic stuff, but also a lot of it just >just because you can doesn’t mean you shouldOne day I’ll do their factory tour and eat so much I’ll regret it.
>>22225640This is an incomprehensible level of retardation you're exhibiting
>>22226053The top of his head looks like my scrotum if you ironed out all the wrinkles.
>>22226053I dont know who this guy is.
>>22225274sorry vape juice """chocolate""" is valid chocolate chud, doesnt matter if less than 15% is actual chocolate

>>22222377Nah OP has since been vindicated
>>22226212seriously, who the fuck is this guy? just some german geezer?
>>22226233The only man who can do blackface and get away with it. Holy based and smug pilled
>>22226212I wasn't trying to be insulting, I was just making an observation.
>>22226155I have been to the factory during a college trip to Riegersburg. It was a eilly Wonka type experience. They had hundreds of tasting stations all free and give you this cool ceramic spoon. I highly recommend it they also let you try unreleased flavors too>>22226258Just chiming in here. But an observation can still be insulting regardless of its accuracy you are aware of this right?
>>22221777I would bet some sort of scrambled eggs with addition of brain from freshly slaughtered pig is a thing in Slavic countries. t. Pole, ate that stuff once as a kid.
