YBC’s BRIEF: A combination of what YBC would like you to know is a “crunchy noir crunch [of] smooth chocolate” derived from Ghanaian cocoa beans, and savory “almond crunch” of crispy almonds with a “mouth-watering skin.” SOOTY’S BRIEF: These were fun to try, not only because they tasted like a step up from your regular grocery store candy bar but because they were going for a fraction (20%) of their original price!
