We’re more than slightly excited to introduce TJ's Slightly Coated Dark Chocolate Almonds. Much more! But since good candy is so often characterized by excess, you may wonder why TJ's would choose moderation when creating this nutty, chocolatey treat. The answer is... you. More and more customers have been asking for less and less—when it comes to sugar content, and other nutritional aspects considered by some to be less than desirable. And so, TJ's decided to create some Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds with notably less of the less desirable stuff—while still providing a really significant snacking experience. To a substantial degree, we believe they've succeeded!

TJ's supplier dry-roasts California Almonds, then pans them (tumbles them in a barrel with chocolate), and finishes them with a dusting of cocoa powder and sea salt. The chocolate-to-nut ratio ends up being about 20/80. (Typically, chocolate covered nuts are around 66/33.)

This means each Slightly Coated Dark Chocolate Almond that you pop in your mouth has a delightful crunch, with enough salty sweetness to more-than-slightly satisfy your snack cravings!
