I had the distinct pleasure of sampling Amella’s Artisan Cocoa Butter Caramels and OMG they are decadent and scrumptious. These caramels have an incredible texture – just a bit chewy and so creamy and buttery that they just melt in your mouth.
Passion Fruit: Out of the three flavors I tried, the passion fruit was my least favorite and it was still excellent. The caramels include real passion fruit, cocoa butter, and Tahitian vanilla and are hand dipped in milk chocolate. The passion fruit flavor is really strong and tangy – if you’re into passion fruit these will make you do the happy dance. Since I think passion fruit is just ok, I’d have preferred more caramel flavor. But even so, yum!
Carrot Cake: Do you like carrot cake? I do. But I couldn’t figure out how they were going to translate that into a caramel. Well, imagine the best carrot cake you’ve had, then give it the buttery flavor and consistency of a super-moist caramel. When I opened the package, my nose insisted that what was inside was carrot cake. These caramels include carrots, roasted pecans, cocoa butter and are hand dipped in white chocolate. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the added textures of the carrots and pecans – they just added to the experience.
Black Forest: Let me just start by saying that I’m not a huge black forest cake fan. It’s ok, I enjoy it, but I’m not likely to order it over something else. So imagine my surprise when these black forest caramels were hands down my favorite flavor. In fact, if a date had given these to me, I might have proposed to him: they were that good. Think of the most buttery, rich dark chocolate added to the creamiest caramel texture, then toss in some hints of cherry – and I mean the really good, soft, chewy tart cherries. These caramels contain Amarelle cherries, 70% dark chocolate, Tahitian vanilla and are hand dipped in white chocolate with dark chocolate sprinkles. Seriously amazing. I’m embarrassed to tell you that I licked the wrappers clean.
Overall, if you’re looking for a truly decadent gift, bribe, thank you – you name it – this is a classy, luscious way to go. The packaging is elegant, the candies beautiful, and the flavor exquisite!
