Love the PB Pit Bull & Feral Fig

Rated 5 out of 5

June 9, 2020

I’ve tried several of their chocolate bars, and all were delicious, but I have two favorites.

The Peanut Butter Pit Bull has a truffle bar vibe. The center is somewhat like a peanut butter cup, but softer, and with a slight cocoa flavor. It also had a smattering of light crispies within to mix up the texture. It has a well balanced sweet and salty bite.

The Feral Fig is my other favorite. The rich dark chocolate (almost semi-sweet in flavor) plays off the figs and cranberries beautifully in this bark-like bar. The only thing that could make this even better would be a sprinkle of sea salt.

The only thing keeping me from buying this brand regularly is the price. But it’s wonderful for gifts in my dog-loving community, and for the occasional splurge.
