What's the best chocolate to give your
engineering wife, girlfriend, or mistress on Valentine's Day?
I thought first of asking other CR4 users as I have done in the past. While
that approach generates some good ideas and many laughs, I thought I would
start out with a more experimental approach this year to critically analyze
chocolate attributes. Our product testers were workers at GlobalSpec, the company that powers CR4.
Chocolate samples from a variety of different manufacturers were selected at
random. The chocolate attributes evaluated included visual appeal, aroma
(smell), touch (snap, feel against the fingers), taste, and texture. Chocolate parameters were rated from 1 –
worst to 5 – best using a wide variety of male and female coworkers. The best chocolate for Valentine's Day based
on evaluation of chocolate flavor attributes of the chocolate brands or
manufacturers based on our tests and personal preferences are:
After further analysis and consulting with taste testers it was agreed that a great deal of additional "testing" was required to be statistically accurate and truly find the best chocolate for our Valentines.
