Here's a holiday review for you! Trader Joe's Candy Cane Chocolate Covered Almonds!
These dipped almonds come in an 8-ounce package and cost $3.99. Described on the packaging as "roasted almonds dipped in dark chocolate, then enrobed in white chocolate and covered in candy cane bits."
Serving size is 9 almonds (ha!), with an estimated 8 servings per package. I know that the serving size is a little small without even tasting them.

Trader Joe's Candy Cane Chocolate Covered Almonds Review
He (Mark) says: Two kinds of chocolate, two types of nuts (almonds + me), and one great blend of candy cane bits combine for a winner of a treat. The candy cane bits are small, just how I like them for a mild crunch (the kind that doesn't stick to your back teeth much at all). I almost missed the fact that there was dark chocolate underneath since each piece was consumed very quickly. I was at 4.5 stars until I re-read the package and bit one in half to discover the dark chocolate. Well done, TJ's.
Overall rating: 5 of 5 stars
She (Bridget) says: These were *so close* to a 5-star review for me. The almonds are what you want them to be - crunchy and roasted - full of flavor. The peppermint is a perfect holiday kiss. The chocolate is a slight miss for me. In my book, more of the dark chocolate layer and a thinner white chocolate layer would have been ideal. Still, they're really, really yummy.
Overall rating: 4 of 5 stars
Will I buy them again? For sure, to have on hand for holiday snacking and entertaining!
