    The dark chocolate in this bar is so good! It is sweet and not too bitter as some high quality chocolate bars tend to be. This the safer flavor of the three I sampled. I think everyone would like it. It has some crunch from the almonds and the blueberry isn't too overpowering. I would eat one piece after supper and it would satisfy my sweet tooth! I would definitely buy this again!

    Taste really good I'm in love with the chocolate it's so light and airy definitely a luxury chocolate Mae for the gods! The acai flavour was evident some people can't tell but it was amazing and the Almonds and berries are a good combo

    I had the opportunity to try on this delicious, mouthwatering chocolate bar! I love eating the small chunks of almond in the dark chocolate. I like how the dark chocolate was not as bitter as i thought it would taste and the combination of almonds and blueberry in a chocolate bar is just brilliant. My two favorite grab and go snacks in one chocolate bar ! I would definitely buy it in the future and I recommend chocolate lovers out there to try it!

    I didn't mind this flavour, but you can barely taste the chocolate, and I like to taste chocolate in my chocolate bars. Nice texture, with some crunch and chewiness, though, and if you want something that tasted like berry rather than chocolate, you'd be satisfied.

    I thought this chocolate was a very high quality chocolate starting with the wrapper
    The outside wrapper was very appealing with a blue foil strip that matched the inside wrapper which was a fancy foil blue.The blue being incorporated for the blueberry.
    The chocolate itself was etched with trees and patterned blocks and the words Brookside. It was divided into different sectioned pieces so you could have a lot or a little.
    The chocolate itself had a very nice crunch to it from the chopped up almonds and it had the perfect amount of chewy dried blueberry bits. The blueberry was sweet and paired nicely with the dark chocolate.
    The chocolate also had nice fruit scent to it. Overall it was a decadent chocolate and I enjoyed it very much.
    I was a little confused with the acai flavour because it is not detectable nor does it appear in the ingredients. All that appears are the words natural flavour so I assume that is where that is incorporated. Regardless this is one of the best chocolate bars I have tried.

    I just tried the Brookside Chocolate tablet bars and loved them! I am already addicted to Brookside products and for me these bars were delicious! My favourite on was the Blueberry Almond with Acai Flavour. The quality of the chocolate along with the texture and favours were amazing. These chocolate bars were all very unique flavours.I will be buying these chocolate bars in the future!

    I received Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Blueberry Amond with Acai Berry Flavour for free in the mail as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. The first thing I noticed was that the packaging makes it quite easy to save a portion of the bar for later. All you have to do is make sure you open the inside wrapper like a chip bag from the top so that it still covers the surface of the bar, then just place it back in the cardboard outer wrapping. This is especially useful for those of us who try to indulge our chocolate cravings in moderation or are utilizing a portion-control diet management system.

    When I first opened the bar, the first smell I noted was that of chocolate and blueberry. I did not detect any hints of acai berry as the packaging suggested. This observation was also present when I tried the bar itself, though some of the tartness from the blueberries may be mistaken for the acai berries. The bar did have a nice balance between tartness from the blueberry/acai berry flavour and the sweetness of the dark chocolate. The extra bit of crunch the almonds provided was a nice touch with the tiny fruit pieces in the bar. The almond pieces definitely did do a wonderful job rounding out the overall flavour experience. It did provide a different texture from the previous bar I had tested though. The crisp rice pieces in the Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Tart Cherry Crisp with Pomegranate Flavour did a better job melding with the fruit so it didn’t stick as much to your teeth. If you wear braces, it may be a good idea to use caution when eating this bar as the fruit pieces may cause you trouble.

    Unlike many dark chocolate bars, this one was not particularly bitter, almost having the quality of 50% cocoa as opposed to 70% or higher. If you prefer your dark chocolate strong as noted in bars of 70% cocoa or higher, you may find this bar too sweet to your liking. If you are someone who likes a sweeter bar, closer to middle of the road sort of cocoa content, you will probably enjoy it. You may even like it if you like milk chocolate. Overall this is a great product but don’t buy it if you are banking on the acai berry flavor being the predominant sensation for your palate but if you love blueberries and chocolate, this bar may be just what you need.

    I received this Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar to try and review for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    Blueberry Almond with Açai Flavour was really yummy – I liked the fruit and nut mix it gave the chocolate a rich texture that I really enjoyed. I thought this was the least unique of the 3 chocolates in terms of flavours but I do think it’ll be one of the more popular.

    Totally satisfied after eating this chocolate and definitely in the high end of the chocolate that I eat. I would definitely consider buying these chocolates again and buy them as gifts for friends.

    I already love dark chocolate, and adding blueberry, almond and Acai flavours to it makes it even better! I didn't find the chocolate bitter at all, and i loved the subtle crunch of the almonds in the bar. The portion of one chocolate bar is massive! Very delicious and very worth every little calorie :)
