The candy aisle usually brims with an assortment of consumer grade candies and chocolates to tempt the toddler and mother duo, with mega size party packs recently becoming ever the more popular. In my experience, I have never come across fancy chocolates besides gift packs designed for the holidays during Christmas time, or at least, until now. And a fine chocolate it is, the Mousse Delicate from Nestle is a relatively up and coming variety to their bread and butter familiar names (think Coffee Crisp, Kit Kat, Aero and Smarties). While the appealing price certainly caught my eye, I was glad to take home a cello wrapped box filled with 10 pieces of light dark chocolate mousse enrobed in a smooth milk chocolate shell. It took me a minute as I had some trouble with unfastening the tightly wrapped plastic, slid out the glistening gold foiled tray, to expose the elegantly designed, uniformly shaped chocolates. I thoroughly enjoyed the melody of tastes as they blended together in my mouth, from the rich chocolate mousse whose bottom notes bear a resemblance to ganache with a slight hint of coffee, to the thin milk chocolate shell, gently complimenting the flavour without overpowering it on the whole. It is perfect for ending an evening meal on a sweet note. For those of us in search of a fine indulgence without the guilt, this pick is guaranteed to keep watch of your wallet as well as your health.
