    I received this product, along with 2 other bars, in the review club. I am greatful for having been selected for this! From the start of opening the package, to the taste of the bars, you know you are getting a high quality product! I love the packaging!

    The bar itself offers the ability to snap squares in different sizes. This is a great feature for those who just want a taste, as well as providing a proper serving size for those who need or want to keep track of their intake!

    I like the fact that Brookside has incorporated healthy products into their bars, while still creating great flavours! The blueberries and acai are rich in antioxidants, the almonds are a great essential fat that also helps to minimize spikes in blood sugar, and dark chocolate has been proven to have many health benefits itself! It makes it easy to enjoy when you can do so without feeling guilty or wondering what negative effects will follow!

    The chocolate is smooth and not bitter as most other chocolates of the same caliber. It didn't melt in my mouth as much as others, certainly not as much as a milk chocolate would, but it wasn't tough or gritty at all. You can actually taste the fruit and nuts! They compliment each other perfectly!

    I like the other Brookside chocolates that come in bags; they are great for tossing on yogurt, or in a salad for an extra pop. That being said, sometimes you just want a chocolate bar! These fit the bill! Unlike the bags that I could polish off fairly quickly, the bars are consumed much slower, and it allows the person eating to actually savour the flavours!

    One thing that truly impresses me with Brookside is that it is the only dark chocolate my family and I can consume without getting migraines! That alone speaks to the higher quality of product! I am not sure how it is manufactured, processed, or what specific ingredients they use, but it is fantastic to be able to eat something that we all enjoy without such a horrid result!

    Although I will most definitely be purchasing these bars again, my only concern with them is their price point. Though I have seen them a few places for about $4, I have also seem them at my usual stores costing as high as $8 per bar! It is definitely worth it for the quality, but at that price for the size of bar you get, it is something that will only be purchased either when on sale or as a treat. I would purchase these over similar bars in their category that share the same price point.

    I highly recommend everyone try them! Initially I wasn't too keen on the sound of the flavours, due to other brands products I've tried that were absolutely disgusting, but was pleasantly surprised! These are by far one of my top treat foods now! Even if you've had other similar items as I had, it is worth putting the fears aside and trying them! If you are anything like myself or my family (whom I might add ate the better halves of my bars.. Haha!) you will not regret it!!!

    Mmm, I received a free Brookside Chocolate bar in Blueberry Almond with Acai from ChickAdvisor and I'm so happy I was able to try the deliciousness that this bar is! The flavor was perfect and it was such a satisfying treat after a long hard day's work. I usually just grab a dark chocolate bar from Trader Joe's and the Brookside bar was SO much better. I will definitely buy this again for myself as well as for friends as little gifts. Highly recommended!

    Loved this flavour the best from the three Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bars that I had the chance to try from Chickadvisor. The blueberry complimented the dark chocolate perfectly.

    This bar was fantastic! Very subtle blueberry & acai flavours in a rich dark chocolate. It literally melted in your mouth! It was a taste of heaven

    Loved the rich dark chocolate flavoured with blueberry in this bar. It was a great treat. I wish the chunks of almond had been better, it would have added to the texture.

    This was probably my favourite flavour out of the three. The quality and packaging is impressive, but not a huge fan of the taste.

    I received this as part of the chickadvisor product review club.
    the packaging was attractive and connoted higher quality in the same vein as the lindt bars in similar packaging.
    I enjoyed the chewy blueberry bits within the bar; however, the chocolate was too sweet for my taste, so i probably will not be purchasing this for myself.
    It did taste like better quality than the typical store bought chocolate candy bar, so i would choose this over the 'cheaper' chocolate varieties out there.

    I received one of these bars for free as part of Chick Advisor's Product Review Club. I love their Dark Chocolate Acai with Blueberry, and to get that taste (plus almonds) in a bar is amazing. I'm not normally the biggest fan of nuts in my chocolate, but the almond bits in this chocolate is incredible. The whole Brookside brand is amazing!

    I normally really like the acai flavour but I don't love blueberry or almond for that matter so it left the flavour and texture lacking for me. The almonds weren't as good as the other krispies in the other bars. But of course the quality of chocolate was very high.

    This bar was soooo good! Again it wasn't too sweet and had a nice mix of rich smoothly chocolate and crunch and I feel good about eating it. This was a great flavour, I loved it!
