Yes I know, it’s Valentine’s soon and at least three of these things will be in demand: flowers, chocolates and expensive wine dinners.
The new Bacon Bar by Machiavelli Chocolatier was something I simply had to have while passing through Essenses in Rustan’s Makati recently. It seems that after combining all sorts of exotic things with chocolates, bacon is now the “it” ingredient. I can’t complain… there is just something about the crispiness and saltiness of bacon that is irresistible when combined with our favorite sweet treat.
The bacon bar was kinda pricey at P150 for a 30-gram chocolate bar, but I found myself munching on every bit, quite disbelieving that there was none left in the wrapper. I wanted more but I’ll stick with my rating: this bar is worth trying at least once!
What will our retailers think of next……bacon with ice cream? 
i love chocolate with bacon! first tried it when a friend brought us pasalubong from the states, Vosges ang brand. sarap! Dark chocolate with bacon bits and salt. yum!
my baker friend actually made chocolate icecream with bacon bits. masarap din ;p although it had a lot of cinnamon, eh i don’t like cinnamon so i didn’t like it that much.
i’m actually thinking of baking bacon (para daw less greasy) and adding the bits to selecta chocolate truffle ice cream haha! try mo
Sebastian’s Ice Cream had a bacon ice cream last year that was well-received.
Zee, I remember the first thing I tried was Happy Bacon of Erica Paredes.
Bacon + Chocolate = two sinful treats but certainly worth the extra calories
Ganns…. ugh. Bacon ice cream…..I certainly missed that!!!
