Be My Sweet Potato

Be My Sweet Potato

We recently added Cocoa Tree to our record of walkable, skateable snack destinations that combine fitness and food. Once you've exercised your way to the pretty Cocoa Tree display cases, it's so hard to decide. Anything with orange, yes. Anything with coffee, yes. A raspberry chocolate -- oh yesyesyes.
Because we're training for a long walk, we added one more bon bon to the little boxette: a sweet potato chocolate.

The smooth chocolate center has a hint of sweet potato flavor and the warm, sweet spices of a sweet potato casserole. It's topped with --'s that a sliver of chewy dried sweet potato? Like Willy Wonka's flavor-changing gum, it summons an entire season in a bite or two, and was completely satisfying. Except maybe it could have a marshmallow on top, like sweet potato casserole.
