One of the hallmarks of good chocolate is usually its snap, but Puchero’s 55% Guatemala Butter, £7.95/70g, has no snap, it seems barely solid and it’s so creamy it breaks off with a mere whimper.
Puchero is relatively new on the scene. It’s a Spanish-based craft chocolate run by a husband-and-wife team who originally started making speciality coffee. This bar contains fermented cow’s butter (so you know, fermented foods = good), and has an ‘edge’ to it to elevate it from ‘mere’ creamy milk chocolate. It’s definitely worth a taste.
