Ragusa Jubilé



Whenever I eat Ragusa, I become nostalgic.
When I was young, long before there was a bridge between Sweden and Denmark, me and my family used to take the ferry to Dragör.
Ragusa had not yet made it to Sweden, but on the ferry you could buy it.
This made it very special and a must buy each time we took the ferry.



Ragusa is a treat.
A chocolate bar containing a hazelnut truffle filling with whole hazelnuts covered in dark chocolate.
There's a great smell of halzenuts and also a musky dark smell. It mixes well.
The most special thing about Ragusa, is its texture.
It literally starts melting as soon as you unwrap it (get ready for sticky fingers).
It continues to melt in your mouth mixing all the sweet and dark flavours.
The whole hazelnuts tops it of giving the smooth texture something cripsy.

After all these years I still love it.

Japp Hazelnut [Limited Edition]



Sweden is starting to get it.
Chocolate should come in lots of different flavors and special/limited editions.
The regular Japp consists of chocolate marange and soft fudge covered in milk chocolate and it has been the same since it was released in 1947.
It was originaly supposed to be called Japs, which was short for Japanese during World War 2.
Thankfully they chose to drop the S and use another P.
Anyway, this isn't about the original Japp, this is about the Limited Edition with hazelnut.

Everyone likes Hazelnut?
The correct answer is: Nutella is made from hazelnuts...

It doesn't really smell like hazelnut, I think the chocolate is the prominent smell here.
It tastes like the regular Japp, but it also has a nutty flavor and an after taste of Nutella.
It's really a great and lovely taste.
There's nothing more to say, if you can get your hands on this version of the Japp, do it...
Buy as many as you can. They are really good.
