I Tweeted about these bad boys a few weeks ago when I discovered that they’d been re-stocked by my lovely Scandinavian friends down the road from work, but such is my love for the Peanott Kubbe that I thought they deserved a post all of their own.

I rarely get evangelical or geeky about chocolate bars, but having discovered the Peanott Kubbe last year I can make an exception. Hailing from Norway, and roughly translated as ‘Peanut Log’, it’s a chocolate, peanut and toffee bar with a difference.

Like a Bounty, the bar comes in two halves. The outer is made of a milk chocolate layer studded with roasted peanut chunks that surrounds a second layer made of dark chocolate, which in turn surrounds the smooth toffee centre. The toffee core has smooth nougatey texture with an almost burnt caramel taste, which contrasts with the bite and flavour of the peanuts and chocolate. Thats right. Toffee, peanut and two types of chocolate. Whats not to love?

I’m going to shut up now, but I can’t recommend them enough. You can find the Scandinavian Kitchen (which is a very fine cafe if you haven’t been) and Peanott Kubbe here.
