Garlic chocolate, stinks like garlic, taste like prunes

Posted on the February 12th, 2008 under Food by Ryman

A company in Aomori is selling a little chocolate that’s made of local fermented black garlic and cocoa powder. A box of 3 is 600 yen. Little towns in Japan often make mashup versions of their local specialty food to promote their region. Takko—the town in Aomori that makes garlic chocolate—is one of the top garlic regions in the country, so this is probably a similar experiment.

Since I’m not fond of foods that tastes sweet, I often wonder if they would someday make a spicy cake or a spicy hot ice cream. If they could combine garlic with chocolate, where are the ones with chilis?
