Whole almonds, caramelized to a golden crunch, crown the chocolate. They top the Almonds Chocolate Bar from Comptoir du Cacao, part of the French chocolate house’s collection of gourmet bars, made with pure cocoa butter and presented in a cardboard sleeve. In the dark version, containing 72% cocoa, the deep, slightly bitter chocolate meets the almonds for a generous, well-balanced bite; in the milk version, containing 36% cocoa, their delicate, toasted sweetness is set against the creamy melt of the chocolate. Offer it as a gift, or serve the dark with a glass of tawny port.
