Caro is a confectioner out of Aragon, specialising mostly in chocolate-
covered fruits. As you point out they do produce block chocolate as well. I
found them to be OK although not great, the dark chocolate having a
definite raisin signature and the milk chocolate bearing a caramel coconut
nuance. Their website is http://www.chocoter.com, although you do need to
be able to read Spanish. They're a fairly new company. Interestingly, Caro
means "expensive" in Spanish. (They're not especially expensive, though)
