Nestle Milo Bar
Milo is a chocolate malt beverage introduced in Australia in 1934 by Nestle. The powder is mixed with either hot or cold water to make the drink which boasts complex carbohydrates and added nutrients such as calcium, B vitamins and protein. It's now become popular around the world including Southeast Asia, Europe and North America. Of course that kind of popularity means that there will be spin off products.
I've never had the Milo drink, but the idea of a malted beverage is right up my alley. When I saw the Nestle Milo Chocolate Bar at Mel & Rose Wine & Liquors recently, I knew I had to try it, even though the thing was nearly $5 for a 2.82 ounce bar. For that kind of coin I could get a really good chocolate bar, not just something from Nestle.
Even though Milo is an Australian drink, this bar was made in South Africa. The bar is thick and in a really easy to spot green thick plastic wrapper. The format reminds me of Cadbury big tablet bars, it's compact at about 5.5 inches long, only 2 inches wide and thick. There are seven rows of double segments.
Instead of being a malted chocolate flavored bar, this features big chunks of the Milo beverage mix. (I can't tell if the stuff is also mixed into the chocolate as well.)
The bar smells rich and chocolatey: Sweet, milky and with a touch of malt and coconut. The melt isn't quite as satisfying, it's fudgy and rather similar to any cheap chocolate. It's sweet and has a lot of dairy to it but then the malt notes kick in to mellow out the sugar. The chunks of Milo powder are crunchy and a little gritty, but dissolve quickly with a strong malt flavor with a hint of toffee, molasses and cocoa. However, there's a lingering bitterness after all this, a little metallic and a lot like B vitamins. It's not off-putting, just odd for candy.
I would love this bar to have actual good chocolate, stuff that's creamy and smooth and less sugary. But it's Nestle, so this is about as good as it gets unless you buy one of their branded names. I don't think I'll pick up this bar again, for a malt fix I'll stick with malted milk balls or seek out the Ovamaltine bar sold in Europe.

Beacon TV Bar
I found this Beacon TV Bar - Milk at Mel & Rose Wine & Liquors, which often has South African candies in stock.
The bar is described on the package as Tropical Coconut and Crunchy Rice Puffs in Smooth Milk Chocolate. Well, that's an uncommon combination so I was intrigued. Add to that the bold wrapper, and I was sold. I also liked the name, as I work in television during the day, so it's fun to try a bar based on the medium.
Beacon also makes other candies, like Fizzers (a chewy candy rather like Airheads but fizzy), large chocolate tablets called Beacon Slabs, Slim Slabs, Superfine (an upscale chocolate line) but perhaps they're best known for their Beacon Allsorts, which are one of the best selling candies in all of South Africa. They have other candy bars with classic names like Wonder Bar, Nosh Bar, Inside Story and Now Bar.
The bar looks simple and appealing. It's about 4.5 inches long and blocky. It's 1.65 ounces, which is less than a Snickers bar (though about the same volume) but more than a pair of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. It feels light so I wasn't surprised when I bit into it and it was quite airy. The crisped rice is dense without being sticky like a marshmallow treat is. It's held together by the lightest chocolate cream along with a bit of coconut. Though I didn't catch much coconut texture, there was a lot of coconut flavor. It even overshadowed the chocolate. The chocolate coating may or may not be actual chocolate. There's cocoa mass and cocoa butter in the ingredients list, but lots of other vegetable fats that could be in the coating as well. I wouldn't be surprised if the coating did have a bit of vegetable oil to it, it's a bit mild and waxy.
The portion is ideal for me, about 250 calories for the whole bar. There's also a TV Bar White chocolate one which I could only imagine is extremely sweet, but perhaps the milkiness of a good white chocolate would go well with the coconut. There is similar bar here in the States called Crispy Cat Mint Coconut, which is dark chocolate covering crisped rice, mint and coconut. I like the milky notes to this one and think it'd be a good fit for American tastes. (Or perhaps Hershey's will make a Whatchamacallit Coconut version.)
The bar is marked Halal and is also distributed in Australia.

Cadbury Dairy Milk Rum & Raisin
I think the best thing to ever happen to raisins is rum. There's simply no better flavor combination to boost the natural fruity flavors and give the whole dried fruit thing a creamy finish. Add a little milk chocolate in there, it becomes a unique experience.
This Cadbury Dairy Milk Rum & Raisin is from South Africa (though they also make them for Europe in England).
The 100 gram (3.5 ounce) bar is a slightly different format from the versions we're used to in the United States from Hershey's, who makes Cadbury's Dairy Milk under license from Cadbury. Those bars are wider and a little thinner. This bar is compact and beefy. It's 2.25 inches wide and 6 inches long and at most 1/3 of an inch high.
The ingredients list no actual rum, which is too bad, because that's what makes the Ritter Sport Rum Trauben Nuss so good. Instead we've got some percentages 23% milk solids, 22% cocoa solids and 20% raisins. That leaves another 35% to sugar, extra vegetable fat (which means by American rules, this isn't even chocolate), emulsifiers and artificial flavors.
It looks smooth and creamy. The scent is definitely rummy - a boozy and fruity fragrance that reminds me of holiday baking. The bar is fresh and glossy and had a good snap to it, revealing a paucity of raisins (I know, 20% must mean two per section). The chocolate flavors are overpowered at first from the rum flavors, which are sweet, buttery and have a strong vanilla & banana finish. The raisins are soft and chewy with a sparkling tartness that cuts through the otherwise overly-sweet bar. The chocolate itself is stiff. It melts well enough, but not in a silky way. I can't quite say it's chalky or grainy, but it's not smooth either. The dairy flavors are not quite what I expect from Cadbury either, which often has a dried milk flavor to it, this seemed much cleaner and fresher - which I admit I enjoy more.
It's quite munchable, but doesn't enter into "satisfying chocolate" for me. I prefer a smoother, higher cacao content milk chocolate and maybe even a few more raisins.

Nestle Tex
Rowntree's created what would be one of the most popular candy bars in the world, the KitKat, in 1935. In the same year they also created the Aero bar. There have been dozens of versions since then even as Nestle's has taken over the brand and spread the bars worldwide.
It's odd then to ponder that there is a mash-up bar of the two that's found in South Africa. The Nestle Tex was launched around 1956 and combines the aerated chocolate of the Aero bar and the crispy filled wafers of the KitKat. I don't know how the bar got the name Tex.
It's a big chunky looking bar. It's over 5.5 inches long and a little under one inch square. The wrapping isn't fancy, just the name of the bar and a satisfyingly accurate cross section of the bar that shows the bubbly chocolate center with a layer of wafers above and below.
The bar smells more like sweetened cereal than a decadent chocolate bar. It's quite light for its size, only 40 grams (1.41 ounces) when you think that a 3 Musketeers bar is 60 grams and has similar volume.
The bar is a little messy to eat. The wafers are crispy but also darn flaky.
The chocolate flavors are disappointing. There's little cocoa flavor or chocolate texture in there. It's not grainy or waxy, but certainly doesn't have a silky smooth melt. The wafers are fun and distinctive, though not quite KitKat-like since they're wider and have a more distinctive cream filling. The Aero layer is lost in the mix, it's light on the chocolate but I didn't really get the same airy melt and bubbly texture because of the fact that I felt obligated to chew the wafers.
Mostly I'm disappointed in the poor quality of the chocolate (it might be mockolate, it's hard to tell which ingredients are the chocolate coating and which are the cream filling in the wafer part). I know Nestle is capable of making better chocolate, and since I bought this as an import, it was $2.00. I could buy some really good chocolate for that.
I could see this bar benefiting from other versions, like dark chocolate and flavors like coffee or orange. As it is, I see it as a middle of the road offering. Certainly unique but not better than the sum of its progenitors.
(I found one note in a book about Rowntree that said that the Tex bar was first introduced in Canada in 1955 around the same time as Coffee Crisp but was a flop.)

Musk Beechies Chewing Gum
Beechies are one of America's older gum brands. Introduced in 1936 by Beech-Nut, maker of jarred food products like fruits, vegetables and most known for their current line of baby food. They invented the vacuum sealed gasket that makes modern canning ubiquitous.
Here in the United States the Beechies gum were like Chiclets, little candy coated rectangles of gum. They came in an array of flavors and were packaged in boxes that had a pleasant rattle to them. They're still made, though I don't see them often. Usually it's the peppermint or spearmint variety in a little box with a corporate sponsors name on it, as a giveaway at a convention or trade show. Though Beechies in the US are run by Richardson Brands, in other countries they're made by Kraft. This package of Musk Beechies is from South Africa.
Musk is a popular flavor in Australia, I've tried a few of their musk lollies and have a hard time getting over the idea of eating an air freshener for you car. But the gum version is something that's a little easier for me to accept. I've had Choward's Scented Gum since I was a kid and though it's not something that I actually enjoy, I at least see that other folks might.
The little gum pellets are long rectangles, nicely rounded. They're bright pink for no apparent reason, except to advertise the weirdness of what one might be about to consume. The candy shell is a bit thinner and less crunchy than Chiclets, but still crispy. The flavor and pinkess goes through and through.
Musk is a bit generic, it's not earthy or animalistic like it sounds. It's more commercial, like an incense from a store in the mall. It has honey notes, some sort of deep rose and sandalwood to it. It's not mouthwatering, but also not as on-the-nose as something like rose or violet.
The flavor did actually last a really long time, at least twenty minutes, which is long after I lose interest in any gum I might be chewing. I'm more of a "chew the sugar out of it and spit it out" kind of person.
I don't plan on chewing these again, though for some odd reason I bought two packages. So I'll save the other ones for freaking people out.

Short & Sweet: Fancy Food Bites
Last year I ordered some wonderful products from Artisan Sweets which included this Nougat aux Figues: Cuit au Chaudron. I promptly took a photo of the product and then ate it.
Made by Suprem' Nougat G. Savin in Montelimar, France it is much like the Arnaud Soubeyran Montelimar Nougat that I've had previously, meaning it has wonderful lavender honey in it along with a generous embed of almonds. Of course it also has bits of figs in there too, as you might have guessed from the picture and name.
The figs gave the nougat a bit of texture, with the crunchy little seeds and combined well with the musky notes of the lavender honey. It seemed to make the whole thing a little sweeter, but it was a fresh taste. It's expensive stuff, so it's a sometimes-indulgence for me. ($8.00 for 3.52 ounces.)
I picked up these nice sized samples at the Fancy Food Show from K.L. Keller Imports. She also handles the excellent G. Savin nougats
This particular nougat has full macadamias in it. It's a light nougat, it actually felt lighter than many nougats in the hand. The scent was a light vanilla, almost like toasted marshmallows. Wow, the marshmallow comparison was evident once I bit into it. The nougat is fluffy and completely smooth ... there's no hint of sugary grain to it at all.
While I was completely missing any honey notes and macadamias aren't my favorite nut, this was fantastic. Sweet without being sticky or cloying and just the right balance with the neutrality of the macadamias.
Walters is a South African company (which explains the macadamias) and besides these samples and a store I found in the UK online, I don't know where else to get this. I guess I'll just have to keep hitting Keller's booth at the trade shows. Here's a review from Our Adventures in Japan of the Almond variety.
I've been on the prowl for good sources of Caffarel in the United States. Besides picking up those few pieces at The Candy Store in San Francisco and seeing them at trade shows, I'm completely at an impasse on how to find them besides hyping them on Candy Blog in hopes that more shops will carry them.
And why? Their products are good quality and in most cases so freaking cute I want to put a leash on them and buy them squeaky toys.
Above is one of the new items they were showing called Conetto, which is like a teensy Drumstick Ice Cream Cone (warning, sound on that site).
The little confection is about 3 1/2" tall. The waffle cone holds a firm guanduia that is then rolled in little toasted cereal "nuts" with a few little chocolate chips tossed in there. The hazelnut paste is soft enough to bite like ice cream with the added bonus that it doesn't melt. So take your time.
It only weighs .9 ounces, so it's probably not a show-stopper when it comes to calories and since indulgence is partially about appearance, this might be an excellent calorie controlled treat. (Of course the wrapper doesn't say how many calories, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's not more than 150.) Now the only things holding me back are where to get them and how much do they cost?
Another little sample from another hard-to-find Italian chocolatier.
BruCo makes wonderful flavored chocolate bars. I've had their orange one and rum one and thought they were quite nice with an attractive package. Last year at the Fancy Food Show I also tried their spiced chocolate and found it far too spicy for me. This year that had some other items that were definitely to my liking: BruCo Salt Tasting Chocolate, Ciocc'Olio & Cabosse.
Ciocc'Olio: The firm white chocolate center has a quick buttery melt. The taste is not strongly of olives. I was expecting a sort of grassy quality to it, but instead it was more nutty. It was definitely smooth and set off by the equally smooth and slippery melt of the dark chocolate shell.
Cabosse: I wasn't quite sure what this was supposed to be. At first I thought it was a dark chocolate guanduia, but later I thought it was simply a firm ganache with cacao nibs in it. Strong and fruity, this was a nice piece, the perfect size and really attractive.
I also tried a Salt Tasting Chocolate set. I'll probably have a full review of that at a later date. Basically it's two different versions of a salted chocolate in one package. Hooray for variety.
One of the other companies that I see at the trade show a lot is Marich. They're known for their fine panned chocolates, especially their Holland Mints and produced the first gourmet malted milk balls in flavors like Espresso and Peanut Butter.
They're based in Hollister, California (which seems to be a hotbed of panning with other confectioners like Jelly Belly, Sconza and Gimbal's nearby) but seem rather hard to find. Part of it is that they sell in bulk to many shops that repackage the product without reference to the supplier or they end up in bulk bins. In this case I found this little package of their Triple Chocolate Toffee at Ralph's in Glendale after trying them at the All Candy Expo.
They were absurdly expensive considering everything else in that aisle, $2.89 for that handful pictured above. But they are lovely to look at. They smell great too, like burnt sugar.
I didn't know at first if the triple was referring to how much chocolate was on the outside or the fact that there were three different kinds. But suffice to say that either title works, because there is a lot of chocolate on each of these ... a pretty precise proportion that matches well with the chunk of butter toffee at the center. The toffee itself is wonderfully crisp and has that great cleave that very buttery toffee has. A little salty, it balances well with the not-so-dark but also not-too-sweet chocolates.
I'd probably pick these up again, but not at this price. Luckily Marich has a webstore.
Everything here gets an 8 out of 10 but no further specs as I don't know retail prices (unless otherwise noted), calorie profile and often not even the ingredients.

Cadbury Dairy Milk Whispers
I'm not sure why they call these Whispers. They're crunchy. Maybe it's their delicate taste.
They're just chocolate covered malted milk balls, but for some reason they don't call them that in the UK (then again, we call them Whoppers here as a rather generic term). The other UK malt balls I've had are Malteasers.
I picked them up at Mel & Rose's and hoped they were the best malted milk balls ever made. (A lot of the time I buy stuff hoping it'll be okay. Sometimes I really go to town and wind myself up that I've found the perfect candy to be stranded on an island with.)
Being a Cadbury product I expected some good chocolate. It was okay, the usual sweet and powdered milk tasting stuff but then again malted milk always tastes a bit like powdered milk anyway. The crispy centers were light and had a good hit of malt with a little bit of a dark salt note to it. The proportions were good, there was a nice amount of chocolate, but it wasn't all about the chocolate, the shell was just there to protect the crispy center.
The chocolate wasn't creamy enough for me, it had that shellac shell on it that just made it a little too waxy. If anyone's keeping track, I think the best prepackaged malted milk balls I've tried so far are the Limited Edition Pop'ables ... other than that I like to pick up the bulk ones at the grocery store (Harmony brand).
These were manufactured in South Africa.

Massam's Nougat
My recent shopping spree at Mel & Rose's has a little story attached to it. A commercial was recently shooting on our street and the production crew paid us $300 for the inconvenience of having other people park in our driveway and the fact that they were going to wake us up 90 minutes earlier than they told us. I vowed to spend $100 of that on import/upscale candies (I consider it an investment in Candy Blog!). So off to Mel & Rose's while the crew was making a ruckus and fouling the air with their diesel generators.
I was very tempted to get the Nougat de Montelimar again, but they had quite a few other import varieties, so I thought since someone else was footing my experimentation bill, I'd branch out to other continents.
Massam's Deluxe Nougat is about as far flung as I could find, made in South Africa. It's a lovely chunk of nougat, about the size of half of a Snickers bar. The white inside wrapper on it is actually a potato starch paper that's edible. The nougat itself is not quite hard and not quite soft. The almond distribution is a little uneven. I had two bars, the first one had a great balance of them, but the second one had a complete void of almonds on one half and then a nice amount in the other half.
The taste of the nougat is sweet and smooth and the starch of the potato wrapper gives it a rather cereal quality. It's odd, as I get to the end of the chew it reminds me of Cheerios. The honey notes weren't as rich as I'd hoped, but these bars are pretty good in their own right. I had a little trouble biting them, so for the second bar I started cutting it with a knife and it worked a bit better.
At a dollar twenty-five a piece for an imported nougat (they're a little over an ounce each when I weighed them, but there's nothing on the label) they're pretty good. I might pick them up again, especially for the novelty of the potato paper.
For the record, I only spent $50 on candy that day, including a tasting kit of Michel Cluizel that I'll have a review of soon. I don't know what's wrong with me. I guess you should never go to a candy store AFTER lunch. I bought a new bike with the rest of the money.
This nougat is both Kosher (Parev) and Hallal.

A year ago, Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was favored to win the American Century Championship, a celebrity golf tournament held at Lake Tahoe and broadcast by NBC. This year, Romo is guaranteed to finish behind perennial long shot Charles Barkley.
Romo isn't listed among the various pro athletes and others who'll make the trek to Tahoe in a press release issued by the organizers of the event. With the Cowboys playing in the annual Hall of Fame game, Romo and his teammates will be opening training camp this weekend in Oxnard, California.
If the Cowboys weren't opening camp, it would be interesting to see if Romo would have played, given his new perception-is-reality approach to football. In past years, it seemed like he spent too much time golfing and not enough time focusing on his full-time job. Now that he has received a big-money deal and a mandate from owner Jerry Jones to be more like Peyton Manning, Romo has put the golf bag away.
This year, the favorite is five-time winner Dan Quinn, at 7-2.
Other notables are John Smoltz (5-1), John Elway (10-1), Jerry Rice (30-1), Ray Allen (40-1), Steph Curry, Chipper Jones, and Aaron Rodgers (50-1 each), Alex Smith, Dan Quail, and Michael Phelps (100-1 each), Steve Spurrier (200-1), and Shane Battier, Ray Romano, and Urban Meyer (300-1 each).
(Regardless of where Meyer finishes, it won't be his fault.)
Meanwhile, Barkley once again has been installed as a 500-1 underdog. And I continue to look for someone who will loan me $500 billion to bet against him.
UPDATE 2:09 p.m. ET: A prior version of this item omitted reference to the fact that the Cowboys are opening training camp. Our friends Clarence E. Hill, Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and Ed Werder of ESPN independently supplied the reminder, without calling us idiots for not connecting the dots. We appreciate both gestures equally.
