Lastly, Dark Chocolate Mocha loads up with dark chocolate mocha drizzle, milk chocolate drizzle, chewy caramel and dark chocolate covered espresso beans – perfect for your favorite chocoholic.
All flavors come in both 5-­‐ounce bags and 19-­‐ounce canisters, perfect for gifting or as a guilt-­‐free sweet for you. Two ounce will be launched this fall.
