I can't deny that I was one of those people who was hesitant to switch to dark chocolate. Likewise, at Aldi you have a wide range of highly sought after milk chocolate. This makes the dark chocolate go unnoticed
But with the new products being introduced by supermarkets, I have been able to get closer to dark chocolate. In this case, it's thanks to Aldi including dark chocolate containing 72% cocoa and nuts in its new products. These are either almonds or hazelnuts, but I skewed towards the former, because I like this nut better.
I know it's not new to the market, because it's been around for a while in different brands. But in this case, I really liked it enough to keep making repeat purchases.

Dark chocolate filled with whole nuts
The great thing about having a lot of variety is that when you get to what you really love, you have a basis to claim it. Not that I liked this chocolate in isolation.
If not, then after trying different products sold today, I would be surprised by this. It is a 200g tablet from the brand Château which you can buy for 1.89 euros.

Yes, it is true that it affects it, and it often contains a large amount of almonds in it. It is inserted completely into the middle of the chocolate, occupying a large portion of the space. For this reason, thanks to its presence, there is no bitterness in the chocolate and its flavor is slightly softened.
So for people who don't like dark chocolate like me, this is a way to eat it. It must be admitted that it is healthier, without being a completely healthy option. But of course, if you can't find a flavor you like, you'll end up going back to milk chocolate.

Antiu Xixona manufactures these chocolates for Aldi
If we look at the back, we will see that it was manufactured by Helbérica, the company responsible for Antiu Xixona products. We are also pleasantly surprised by its composition.
In this, we find 72% cocoa in chocolate, an amount that far exceeds the percentage necessary to consider it healthy.
Apart from 72% cocoa, we find that 25% of its composition is whole almonds. This way, only 3% is allocated to other components. Among them we find sugar or vanilla flavor.

In any case, it is a food that should be eaten at home and eaten in small quantities to get rid of envy. With this small piece we can benefit from the benefits of dark chocolate on our bodies. It especially helps the heart and blood vessels.
