Blanco
by Blanxart
Impact
Sheds light in dark corners even as Blanxart fatally compromises this White Chocolate -- a category whose perennial position as the leading romantic comedy diva of cacáo makes many snigger instead of laugh, turning a potential Oscar into a Gold's Gym™ dumbbell available at all Walmarts™ for the price of a Kmart™ Blue Light Special. For some sad lonely actresses driving on the freeway while sexting, tweeting, facebragging, ego-surfing the iPad (& eating sushi of course), plotting how to save the planet from eco-Armageddon by landing that role in the next major blockbuster, this bar called 'happyness' will still be a warm not-so-metaphorical gun, preferably with convulsions induced as soon as it gets jabbed in lengthwise between tattoos on the neck & nipples, & along with the studs on the tongue... as dessert after the crash.

Appearance 4.9 / 5
| Color: | bone white w/ translucent emerald |
| Surface: | perfect plaster of Paris |
| Temper: | the glint of fat cellulose |
| Snap: | snug |
Aroma 7.7 / 10
very stratified: milk - vanilla – cocoa butter -> comes together as cottage cheese soldered w/ alginate
Mouthfeel 11.8 / 15
| Texture: | stiff, then turns to liquid despite lecithin |
| Melt: | slow to release |
Flavor 40.2 / 50
upper-register lemon streaks over pure cocoa butter -> vanilla works it down to Earthen levels -> milk powder breaks flavor apart -> cow’s butter -> honey
Quality 16 / 20
Very workmanlike & pretty genuine, if deodorized.
Good start, well-roasted butter, though it all wears away in the melt (naturally as it would anyways, of course, except earlier in this case). The milk (probably spray-dried though Aroma almost suggests roller-dried) causing some cohesion issues that resolve well enough however.
Could stand more time in the refiner stage + an increase in cacáo butter content to improve both flavor stamina & textural support.
ING: sugar, cacáo butter, whole milk pwdr, soy lecithin, vanilla
