Wiseman House Chocolates:
Mocha Crunch

For the chocolate-lover who’s also crazy about coffee, these diamond-shaped pieces of semisweet chocolate are studded with tiny bits of roasted coffee beans. Truly addictive, they are a very special treat—with a cup of coffee or by themselves. The small size (about that of a tasting square) affords a little treat a few times a day without breaking the calorie bank.
