Who Doesn't Love Chocolate?
You remember those days when Mom would give you your allowance and the first thing you did was go to the store to buy your favorite chocolate bar? These days, your tastes in chocolate may have matured from colorful kids' candy to more exotic chocolate truffles or dark chocolate treats rich in antioxidants. If you're the type of person who hasn't met a chocolate he didn't like, perhaps you're interested in daring your taste buds with some brands beyond Hershey and Nestle's. Chocolate is in vogue now, and people enjoy it daily in a variety of foods and styles. Whether you want to kick back with a glass of red wine and a companion square of cacao delight, or savor the aroma of dark cocoa mixed with tart fruits, be sure to check out some of these gourmet chocolatiers at your local market.
Vosges Chocolate
With boutiques in Vegas, Chicago, and New York, Vosges is fast becoming a national sensation. This boutique chocolatier is best known perhaps for its unique "bacon bar," a deep milk chocolate with bits of real smoked bacon inside! Before you cringe, definitely give it a try. You won't find a more delectable salty/sweet treat out there. Vosges also offers bacon chocolate caramels and bars featuring other wild ingredients - everything from mushrooms to cayenne peppers.

Patric Chocolate
Made by a one-man operation in Missouri, Patric Chocolate is perhaps one of the best brands you'll ever taste. This exclusive brand comes only in three varieties of dark with cacao beans imported from the southern hemisphere. The chocolate is almost like wine in the way it evokes a number of flavors that aren't mixed in with the cocoa butter. Patric retails at a number of local shops, and if you can find it, definitely by a bar!

Moonstruck Chocolate
Based in Portland, Oregon, Moonstruck Chocolate is a delightful brand featuring a selection of flavorful bars (milk, dark, and even with chilies) and truffles. They operate a few boutiques around the country, otherwise you may find the bars at select chocolate shops and gourmet grocers. The bold espresso bean bar is especially yummy!
