We were very excited to discover a new chocolate maker for us in New Zealand: Wonderland Chocolate. Wonderland Chocolate is based in Lyall Bay, Wellington. They create bean to bar plant based milk chocolate goodies. They use Uncommon Cacao, transperant trade beans for their chocolate. The bars we bought are milk chocolate made with cashew milk. We loved the packaging artwork. ROCKET MAN ROY SMOOTH CASHEW MILK CHOCOLATE 50% cocoa solids from the Dominican Republic. The chocolate is very smooth and melty. It has a nice strong chocolate flavour for a milk chocolate. There is a mild nut flavour to it and some wood and vanilla notes. It has a nice sweetness that is not overly done. This is one of the nicest plant based milk chocolate we have tasted and is definitely going onto our 'Favourites' page. STAN THE STRONGMAN STRAWBERRY & CHAMPAGNE The same cashew milk chocolate with 49% cacao. The cocoa beans have been soaked in Champagne and the chocolate bar has a scattering of dried strawberries. The champagne and strawberries weren't distinct flavors, but together they added tang and berry fruit flavor notes to the wood, musk, vanilla notes of the chocolate. RONNIE & RITA HAZELNUT PLUM The cashew milk chocolate this time is 44% with hazelnuts and a scattering of dried Black Doris Plum. That same yummy wood, musk, vanilla chocolate notes, combined with some definite hazelnut flavours with a hint of plum. This was a dessert like combo for us. We really liked this cashew milk chocolate. Can't wait to try more from Wonderland Chocolate.
