Product details
Announcing the product launch on Instagram, the supermarket said: "New in the M&S Foodhall – mint choc fans listen up... There’s mint chocolate, and then there’s our NEW Collection Single Origin Dark Chocolate with Mint – the most luxuriously creamy, minty bar you could treat yourself to. Crafted from rich 85% Peruvian dark chocolate with a drop or two of Indian mint oil, we won’t blame you for snapping off a square every time you walk past..."
The website reads: "Savour the velvety texture and rich flavour of our Collection Dark Chocolate. Expertly crafted in Italy, this melt-in-the-mouth sweet treat is made with 85% cocoa single-origin Peruvian dark chocolate with a hint of mint."
Shoppers' reactions
In the comments, people were going wild for the new chocolate bar, saying that it's "so good". Others said that they quite enjoyed dark chocolate when it came with a specific flavour, writing: "My fav chocolate is with mint because I find plain dark too much on its own. I like raspberry and dark chocolate."
Another penned: "Great. I cannot have all those sugary chocolate bars as I'm diabetic, but I can have dark chocolate because of the higher cocoa, and it's more nutritious." Somebody else asked for another flavour to be made in the 85% cocoa, writing: "Oh yes! Can we get this 85% in chocolate orange too?"
People also asked whether it was vegan, or whether milk had been added to it, and vegans and vegetarians will be thrilled to know that the website states it's suitable for both dietary requirements.
