Komforte Chockolates's tag-line explains it well: they make "savory combinations that are easy to love." It's true, they are easy to love, even though the flavor selection might sound quite odd at first glance.

Take the Ramen Noodle chocolate bar. The crushed up noodles are folded into dark chocolate, so it's reminiscent of chocolate-covered potato chips, and that touch of salt goes a long way toward satisfaction. (They also offer a Savory Ramen Noodle bar with onion and garlic powder as well as a bit of soy sauce. That one may be a bit much, even for me.)

Our unanimous favorite was a milk chocolate bar with Tortilla Lime + Salt—it has the perfect sweet-salty balance. We were also big fans of the milk chocolate French Toast bar, which is textured with bagel chips.

And for you white chocolate lovers, Komforte offers an Apple Pie + Graham bar. The graham cracker element is actually crushed graham biscotti, with hints of apple and cinnamon. Each 2.5 ounce bar retails for $3.49, the perfect size for keeping in your pocket for snacks, and a guaranteed conversation starter.
