How come the chocolate is less expensive? 2 lbs instead of 1lb than other flavors?

It is a density issue with the coco powder included in the chocolate. For the same volume, chocolate weighs more than vanilla. Each tub has 20 servings, so your price per serving is exactly the same.

I believe that is just a 12pack box. When I bought it a year ago it was from a different vendor and it was about the same price per box of 12 - the vendor I bought mine from had four boxes of 12packs for sale and it average out to about 14.75 a box. Yes, I know I can buy it at Sam's club but it is a mixed pack with boxes that contain 6 packages in each box and no one in our family likes the Raspberry (ugh), and not the French Vanilla all that much. So it is not a money saver as Mrs. Campbell is commenting on. I for one think the White Chocolate is the best and appreciated being able to buy it in bulk for the holiday/winter season.

I've actually purchased both products and neither package weighed 1.2 pounds. I think that shipping weight has more to do with how shipping cost is calculated and not the actual weight of the shipped package.

You were asking about the 1lb prime and pure cocoa butter correct? I am sorry if I misunderstood your question, but for this product you would receive free shipping on an order. If you were asking my company personally how much we would charge for shipping for a three to four pound order, this is not possible because all of our products are fulfilled by amazon.Once again, I am sorry if I misunderstood your question. Have a good rest of your day.Aspen Naturals

Baker's chocolate, eaten directly, is my favorite (and almost only) dessert. My system is to take a bite of the unsweetened and a bite of semi-sweet together, making a net 76% cacao total. Of course one can easily vary the percentage to one's personal taste. On special occasions I take a tiny sip of Grand Marnier with each bite. In my opinion there is no chocolate that is better (and you can't beat the price). Also of importance to me is the very very small ingredients list.

I am sorry that I don't keep track--they do require A LOT of chocolate--more than the small molds, but they are always such a big hit!!. I am still perfecting the process since I am experimenting with EXACTLY how much chocolate to put in each mold because last time, the chocolate was too thick on top. I filled it about 1/2-2/3 full. It takes practice, but I then decorate the top with a squiggle of chocolate. The good thing is you can just make 1 or 2 for experiment purposes. I THINK the bark chocolate (white or chocolate sold at Wal-mart, etc) is a better deal if you are making a lot. Sorry I could not be more helpful!

Hey Kristin, you are correct. The chocolate so overpowers the bean that there is very little coffee taste at all. There is a store in MD called Black Dog Coffee that sells a perfect balance of choc and dominate bean, but the price is high (for me).

It depends on what others you're comparing it to. I used an online ranking and to me it was good enough, especially for the price. There were some above this one with exceptional quality that were also considerably pricier. This one was still sufficiently above average in quality for a price that is nearly below average, and the taste was pretty decent (I got the chocolate flavor). I wish I could find the scale for you but I have no idea where I placed it, but you might get something doing a Google search. BTW, when I say quality I am mainly referring to protein content/ratio.

I bought a bottle of McCormick 1.5 oz for $3.99 at the local grocery store and it was the only one available. At that rate it would be over $85 for 2 pounds but you would get 21 small bottles. If you can get it cheaper, go for it.

It's the mold. You can buy the chocolate to put in the mold at a craft store like Michaels.

IMO the vanilla is better than the chocolate. I have not tried the strawberry though.

Since it's a "gummy", possibly. Yet, it's lighter in consistency than gummy bears. NOTE: My apology that my response took this long.

Obviously, the chocolate was bought in bulk and repackaged for sale to the individual consumer. I bought it and it was fine, much better quality than chocolate I can buy at the supermarket. Every outlet I can buy smaller quantities from, repackages. I don't know how you expect your question to be answered by a previous buyer. If you don't like it after you use it, don't buy it again. I certainly would buy it again and I have used all the fine chocolate brands.

You were seriously unwilling to Google this information? 16grams per serving for the Chocolate. Warrior Food isn't for you though. You need The Lame-Lazy-Lethargic Food.

They sure have priced it out of the market. I'll be darn if I'll pay $8 for 1.5 oz. This went from a helpful product to a luxury. This economy has taught me how to cut out luxuries.

Not 'vulgar greed'----different vendors catering to a different customer geographic. Also, when shipping these chocolates in the summer months, extra care must be taken to ensure that they arrive intact and whole (not melted); therefore, insulated [ice packs] packaging must accompany these orders. Now does it make sense? I hope that this answer will suffice.

The vanilla and chocolate both have a very subtle flavor, but unless you are going to add fruit, chocolate, etc., I prefer them over the natural.
