Philippine Chocolate Dried Mango

One of the top Philippine exports is the dried mangoes loved by both young and old, locals and foreigners. Taking it to the next level is one of my favorite dried mango makers--the Philippine brand by Pro Food International Corp, which I think has captured just the right amount of sweetness and chewiness in every bite. I finally found their latest creation surprisingly in a convenience store called My Stop and not in major supermarkets.
Who does not love chocolate and mangoes together? Although chocolate can elevate any fruit in my opinion, the type of chocolate used matters too. For this specific product, P54.00 is affordable due to low cash outlay but expensive because it's only 6 pieces per pack. Though I'm no chocolate connoisseur, the chocolate tasted poorly and not that satisfying. On the other hand, the dried mangoes were still as good as I remember them.
I heard that one brand came up with theirs using Belgian chocolate. Now that's really something I must try soon. The scouring continues.
