Private Selections Sea Salt Caramel is becoming a Halloween hit.

The endless selection of Halloween is one of the most exciting things about halloween. The mainstream KitKats and Twix stealing the spotlight on a yearly basis. But maybe it’s time to try something new; Private Selections Sea Salt Caramel. 

The smooth dark chocolate coating over rustic caramel creates a sweet and pleasing candy. The sea salt provides a nice variety to the rich flavors of the candy creating a perfect balance between sweet and salty. In many ways the candy is similar to a Milky Way Simply Caramel. It has the basic composition of chocolate and caramel but with tamer sweetness because of the darker chocolate and sea salt addition. 

Although the flavors are well balanced the texture of the candy is disappointing. The thickness of the caramel creates a dense texture that might not be everyone but the smoothness of the chocolate and the zing of the salt help to mediate this issue. 

Overall the balanced flavor creates the perfect candy for chocolate lovers and for anybody looking for a more refined candy, Private Selections Sea Salt Caramel is a great way to go.
