Omnom -- the onomatopoeia of that little green creature who munches its way thru oh-so-tasty snack phenomenons.

A bar that'll have many ravenously omnoming over it.

Omnominous
Appearance   4.7 / 5


Color: golden nuts against dishwater blond chocolate
Surface: exploding supernova
Temper: violent
Snap: thwack
Aroma   8.6 / 10
caramelized butter-almond popcorn
Mouthfeel   10.9 / 15
Texture: more wax & gum than crunch &, hence...
Melt: … disorienting
Flavor   39.7 / 50
transparent constituents with a near-White Chocolate foundation (Omnom's undramatic Milk of Madagascar), heavy on the casein (a protein component of milk powder) -> runs a bit bland for its composition but salt intermittently lifts it -> confected black orchid (vanilla-toffee)
Quality   14.2 / 20
A bar with room for improvement (greater intensity, fresher nuts, & better Texture) but the masses should crave it anyways if, for no other reason, because it winds-up like this barsmith's Milk of Madagascar base with a fantastic finish.

Om nom nom nom… an update of a term on the C-spot's® List of Banned Words: yum.

INGREDIENTS: sugar, cocoa butter, milk powder, cocoa mass, almonds, sea salt
