I was at the grocery store on Sunday and I decided that it wasn't good enough to just stock up on the sensible stuff I was there to get. I also needed to live a little. (A very little.) So I popped over to the candy aisle and picked up the two most unusually flavored premium candy bars I could find: Lindt's Excellence: Chili (dark chocolate), and Frey Supreme Cinnamon and Blood Orange (white chocolate).
The Chili bar is *amazing*. It just tastes like high-quality dark chocolate to start with, but it has this rich, firey aftertaste. Soooo good.
Edit: Broke down and tried the cinnamon and blood orange bar also. It's hard to imagine, but it's even better. I can only take so much white chocolate from, say, Hershey's - it's enjoyable, but it's kinda sickly-sweet and gets old fast. This stuff is spicy and tangy and delightful and I'm going to have a really hard time eating it one little block at a time over days the way one ought to do with premium candy bars.

I have yet to try the chile bar. It both scares and intrigues me....

A chili candy bar sounds totally gross, but then again I really don't like candy in general even the tame stuff.
