Mmmmm its Sensory Day!

Being an employee of Endangered Species Chocolate always has its perks but one of my favorites is sensory testing day. Every Thursday I get to test the chocolate that our quality department has put out for us to sample. We inspect for color, inclusions and then taste for overall yummyness.

It’s always exciting to find out what chocolate is going to be put out for my day. A few weeks ago I got lucky and Sandhill Crane was sitting out. I quickly grabbed my sensory sheet and started letting the chocolate squares melt in my mouth while I savored each bite.

By the time I had tasted each sample and filled out my sheet, I was still craving the smooth creamy texture and crunchy almond flavor that I love so much. But I remembered that I hadn’t been in the gym that week and bathing suit season is just around the corner, so I put down the chocolate and walked away.

But then again, there is always next week!
