Coda - Chocolate - Cream & Crumble (H)

Little flecks of spiced crumble sit visibly on top before the first bite ever happens, and that crunch turns out to be the whole selling point here. Underneath sits a full 100mg dose rather than the split-ratio version, so the lift lands stronger and more immediate, no easing in required first. White chocolate forms the base, sour cream stirred in for tang, with lemon zest slicing through the sweetness before it turns too rich. That crumble stays crisp rather than melting into the chocolate around it, giving each piece one bite of crunch against a smoother, tangier backdrop. Coda keeps the recipe consistent square to square, so the lemon-and-crumble balance holds steady from the first piece to the last instead of drifting off partway through. Lemon keeps resurfacing well after the initial bite, holding its ground longer than the sweetness around it. Few dessert flavors lean this hard into crunch as the whole hook rather than an afterthought, and that is exactly what keeps it interesting.
