About the Coco Joy bars from The Raw Bakery. These little gems are absolutely incredible!! You'd swear you're eating a mounds bar.

I am on a standing monthly order with them...they automatically send me a shipment every month.

I have no affiliation with them...I'm just a hugely impressed and satisfied customer!

Wow.. $4.79 for each 2 OUNCE package.

I think I can afford to live without them. I'll get by on raw chocolate turtles. :)

I LOVE Mounds & Almond Joy. Maybe I'll splurge on some of that stuff for Valentine's Day or something.

Smasty, do you mind me asking how much a monthly shipment runs?

I just came up with a new recipe for cherry-nut fudge using cacao instead of carob. I can't believe that it tastes as good as it does. I don't think anyone would be able to tell the difference! I'm going to post in the recipe section for anyone interested. However, a warning - I used up a lot of stuff I had around, plus some of it may be on the expensive side, but it sure made a lot of fudge!

Alissa had a cake from that place at the seminar - it really does taste like a mounds bar... sweet, chocolaty, and coconuty... but at 100.00 per cake, I would have to wait until a VERY special occasion to get one. However.... 5.00 for a snack.... hmmmm..... maybe.....

Yeah, they are pricey, and they will hook you in :)

You'd be amazed what these people do with "raw" though. Keep it in your back pocket for a special treat.

Sharon....I have them deliver 12 bars a month to me and it's about $55.00. Also...I make brownies too using cacao...I use a cacao/carob mix and it really does make a big difference. I will be watching for your recipe--I love chocolate/cherry.

I think the chocolate coating on the Coco Joy bars is cacao and deglet dates...but it is so fine and thin, it really has a close texture to real chocolate. I know TRB uses a lot of real vanilla bean in their products, which is a pricey ingredient.
