Yum, yum and more YUM!!  The first time I had Dagoba Chocolate was last Spring when we went to Atlanta to visit my sister & her family for Spring Break/Easter/Noah’s Baptism.  Kelly (my sister), had her in-laws staying with them as well for Noah’s Baptism.  Nancy, Kelly’s MIL, was kind enough to bring Jon & I some wonderful gluten-free treats.  Among the treats were Pamela’s Brownies, Jennie’s Macaroons & a Dagoba chocolate bar.  I remember my first bite of that chocolate bar and it was pure heaven.  I believe that it was the “milk chocolate” one. 

I was in Whole Foods the other day looking for carob powder and I ran across the Dagoba chocolate shelves.  Not only were there more than a dozen varieties to choose from, but they were on SALE!  Darn sales!  Who passes up chocolate on sale?  Not me!  LOL!  So, I bought myself a “New Moon” 74% Cacao Dark Chocolate Dagoba bar.  OH.MY.GOD.  Have I really gone all these years without having good chocolate?  What was I thinking?  Not that I don’t enjoy a good Hershey bar or Special Dark, but now I found out what I have been missing.  An added bonus….according to Dagoba’s FAQ they don’t handle any products made with gluten, making cross contamination virtually impossible!

The back has my favorite quote: “You can deprive the body but the soul needs chocolate”
