It's no secret we've been on a chocolate kick here at Convivio Bookworks lately, and here's another delicious chocolate bar we've found, this one from Switzerland, with a story that relates to the Drive Down Days we tell you about each September in the Convivio Book of Days Blog:

Each spring, the cows ascend to the pristine mountain pastures, and each fall, they return to the villages in the valleys, decorated with bells and flowers, accompanied by the Milkboys on their journey down the mountain roads. It is this procession that is captured in the beautiful imagery on each bar of Milkboy chocolate. The original artwork for the printed wrapper was created by Swiss paper cut artist Esther Gerber.

The Milkboy brand dates back over 100 years to a small dairy in the Emme Valley in the Swiss Alps. The combination of exceptional Swiss alpine meadow milk with finest quality cocoa beans from some of the world's best and most sustainable sources is what makes Milkboy chocolates so delicious.

This single bar of dark chocolate contains a minimum of 85% cocoa. 1.4 oz bar (40 g). An intense, pure, and extraordinary dark chocolate bar. Made in Switzerland. UTZ certified: the cocoa beans used by Milkboy are certified to be grown responsibly through sustainable farming practices.

Ingredients: Cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, vanilla pods. May contain milk, hazelnuts, almonds, and peanuts. Gluten free, Kosher, non GMO.
