These days, the combination of dark chocolate, caramel and sea salt is all the rage. It's hip, it's cool, it's hotter than… well, something that's hot. Which brings us to Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramels, a holiday staple in our stores since 2009. Buttery, smooth, creamy caramels. Drenched in deep, rich, Belgian dark chocolate. Sprinkled with natural salt from the Dead Sea. A triumph of confectionary genius. The trifecta of sweet-savory indulgence. The triple crown of candy creativity. All for the trifling price of $4.99 for each 6.3 ounce box of 12 two-bite treats.
