In Mexico, “lucha libre” is freestyle wrestling (literally, “free fight”).
It has developed into a stylish form of the professional wrestling, characterized by colorful masks, rapid sequences of holds and maneuvers, and “high-flying” maneuvers, some of which have been adopted into U.S. wrestling.
Gearharts Chocolates has ported the colorful spirit of wresting into a scrumptious chocolate crunch bar, which has become our new favorite candy.
The Lucha Crunch Bar is a 5″ x 2.5″ delight that is not to be missed.
The enticing packaging has artwork in Lucha Libre style, including a mask!
The luscious, nut-free candy bar inside is filled with Mexican-inspired flavors:
Caramel infused with fresh lime.
“Half-popped” popcorn for crunch.
A touch of chili rojo (red chile) for a bit of kick.
A cloak of Gearharts signature blend 40% milk chocolate.
We can’t adequately describe the bodacious blend of flavors, except to say:
All hail the Heavyweight Champion! Lucha Crunch Bar is our favorite chocolate find of the year.
We’re buying a dozen as stocking stuffers, and another dozen to feed our chocolate fix.
Hopefully, we’ll be able to limit our consumption to one bar per week.
