“Pretty damn good” was the statement Man on the Raw used to describe Blue Mountain Organics’ Cacoa Walnut Brownie. I concur. I ate my thick piece of brownie with a cold glass of almond milk.
Blue Mountain Organics was gracious enough to send me a brownie to try. Created by the Raw Bakery, the 2.4 ounce brownie was individually packaged for freshness. As far as taste goes, the unique cacao flavor stands out, but doesn’t overpower the brownie. I love the fact that it has golden flax in it, yet I don’t taste it at all.
The smooth, glossy texture wholly compliments the rich and dense qualities of the brownie. Consistent use of chopped walnut pieces throughout bring added appeal to the texture.
The dates and agave combined puts the brownie on the sweet side, but it’s forgivable, it is a brownie after all.
Blue Mountain Organics has a nice variety of brownies, more than your usual Standard assortment. Examples include the Simply Cacoa, Carob Walnut, Carob Pistachio, Carob Hazelnut, Carob Crunch, Cacao Pistachio, Cacao Hazelnut, Cacao Crunch and the one Blue Mountain sent to me to sample, Cacoa Walnut.
The walnuts and flax seeds goes through a process the company calls “Better-than-Roasted™ .” The nuts and seeds have been soaked, sprouted and dehydrated thus removing the enzyme inhibitors that naturally occur in nuts, making the brownies easier to digest.
Among the other products Blue Mountain Organics sell are sprouted nuts and seeds, granola and raw ice cream.
