Coffee and chocolate are practically made for one another: both are rich, complex, and aromatic in complementary ways, with bracing, balanced bitter notes that play off of each other like a well-composed song. We sought to take this near-perfect pairing to new heights with Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Coffee Buzz Bars, four miniature-but-mighty chocolate bars made from roasted cocoa nibs and coffee beans from Colombia. Together, these two flavor powerhouses combine into one surpisingly smooth and creamy eating experience, that also happens to provide the same amount of caffeine as a shot of espresso in every Bar.

Ideal for chocolate-lovers, coffee-lovers, and especially chocolate-and-coffee lovers, each 0.88-oz. Bar approximates the taste of a 70% dark chocolate confection, with unmistakably roasty coffee notes throughout. Its rich flavor, easy-going texture, and buzz-worthy bolt of caffeine make it a great after-dinner option: like a post-meal cup of coffee and sweet treat rolled all into one. We recommend keeping a package of Dark Chocolate Coffee Buzz Bars on hand for dinner parties, as an emergency gift for foodies, or even just storing at your desk, for whenever you’re in need of a nice, chocolatey pick-me-up.
