I took a drive down to the Italian market in Philadelphia. While at one of the Italian shops, they had a whole shelf filled with figs products. Here's one I just bought, it tastes really good, a mixture of Chocolate and figs.

Bass and I must not have the same taste in fig and chocolate.  I didn't care for it too much... But there is a gelato store somewhere in Philly that has a fig gelato during fig season.  It is very good.  I bought a pint at a Whole Foods in the Princeton area a couple of years ago and looked them up.  I'll have to see if I can find them again.

It's actually tastes like the real cocoa than the actual chocolate. I like the natural chocolate taste. I just made a pita sandwich with a banana and I spread some ficococo with it.
