The last in this mini-series of Thorntons Pieces bars is the Almond Pieces bar. It comprises of a dark chocolate (60% cocoa solids) slab with sliced and halved almonds chucked all over the entire thing.

The worry with this was that as I took it out of the tight-fitting pack, that the almonds would all fall off. Fortunately none of them did, which shows how deeply embedded they all are. The bar also looked really great with the mix of sliced almonds and halved almonds all over it. It was almost a shame to eat it…

It was definitely worth it though. The dark chocolate is very rich and the usual dark flavour without being too bitter, I think Thorntons got it just right with their 60% rating. The almonds don’t add a whole lot in taste, they can usually only be tasted when you get a couple of big ones, but they’re very nice when you can taste them.

Overall this is a really nice bar, I don’t know if it’s better than the Fudge bar despite me using nicer words for this, that’s really down to your own tastes. Per 100g (the bar is 80g) this bar has 544 calories, 10.5g Protein, 32.4g Carbohydrates and 41.3g Fat.
