You might think nothing is like quite like chocolate covered espresso beans. The smooth chocolate melting against your tongue, yielding to the lively espresso center. Ramp up a notch or two and experience True Treats’ Jazzed and Jammin’ Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans. Not one but Dark, Milk, Cappuccino, Coffee & Cream, and Espresso chocolate coatings that go beyond melt-in-your-mouth to five separate chocolate experiences. The finale of the chocolate experience ends with the crunch of an espresso bean tucked at the chocolate’s center. The only question is whether to eat a few at a time or eat one kind of chocolate covered espresso followed by another, to absorb each flavor. Whichever you decide, the choice is good.

Why Coffee Was Eaten Before It Was Ever Sipped
The origin of coffee may have started in Ethiopia, where a goat herder noticed his goats grew energetic after eating beans from a tree. He tried the berries. Tasty. Yes. And energizing. In another version, a Yemenite Sufi mystic encountered birds eating berries with great enthusiasm and delight. He tried the berries. Same result. Whatever the origin, coffee appeared throughout the world, including North America, where Colonists used it as a substitute for British tea and, flash forward a few centuries, and coffee breaks were a mainstay of the working world. Explores to the North and South Poles had a supply of coffee and Revolutionary War and Civil War soldiers crushed and boiled coffee from their rations. More to the point, soldiers, explorers and people-on-the-go ate coffee beans, often because they didn’t have the bandwidth or desire to prepare cup. Besides, eating chocolate made for a delicious topping on finely crafted backed goods and when engulfed in chocolate.
