So disappointing!

During the holiday season, this CLIF bar flavor can be purchased at Loblaws for $2. The bar is 250 calories. This bar is made up of a chocolate base and it contains rice cereal treats, brown rice syrup, date paste, cocoa and cocoa butter. When you take this from the package it has a deep cocoa smell. The base has a crunchy texture to it which is nice because it takes longer to eat and chew. The bar is drizzled with a white chocolate and there are white chocolate chips throughout the bar which are supposed to act as the marshmallows This bar does not have a strong chocolate flavor. There is a mild hint of freshly brewed hot chocolate when you eat this, but it is lacking a lot in flavor. Overall, this bar contains very little chocolate flavor and very little taste in general. The white chocolate chips add a gentle sweetness and when the bar is microwaved they melt and the sweet flavor gets infused more throughout which also adds a marshmallow-like texture.. The chocolate flavor comes out slightly more when the bar is warmed. This bar was super disappointing, and I would not repurchase. Clif makes much better and flavorful bars.
