CRAZY GOOD! Heat it up in the oven and it is over-the-top great!

Really very chocolatey, more like dessert than the traditional more bread like babka.
Significantly better when toasted or served warm.

So delicious – tastes like a combination of chocolate croissants and cake. The chocolate chips on top make it even better.

I was a little skeptical about this because it looks “weird” (ie: not like any type of cake or pastry I’ve had before), but it was extremely tasty! We even ended up having it as my daughter’s birthday cake. Only problem is, you won’t be able to stop after just one bite!

This is a great dessert. Never had anything like it before but I would definitely eat it again! Perfect type of chocolatey flavor.

This is a delightful, decadent sweet that I hope TJ’s will always carry. Served it for a birthday cdlebration and everyone wanted seconds. Being Polish, I am always on the lookout for a moist, tasty babka. This surpasses all I have had in 67 years. UNtraditional? Who cares!!!

Trader Joe’s has the best chocolate babka. I live in Surprise, Arizona and we don’t get good East Coast ethnic favorites. I am bringing it to the Hanukah/Christmas celebration in my community.

Our first Brooklyn Chocolate Babka. Got yesterday, completely dry and bitter. Could swallow only with whipped cream. We enjoy dark chocolate daily. Any experienced Chocolate Babka Lover there to help? We certainly would appreciateit.

This is so tasty, like it’s fresh from a bakery.
To the above reviewer: it sounds like maybe you got a bad batch, what a bummer! Because it definitely hasn’t been very dry or bitter at all any time I’ve had it, and I don’t even like very dark chocolate so I would probably be extra sensitive to it if it was. Fingers crossed you get a better result next time.

This is the best chocolate babka I have ever eaten!! Filled with delicious chocolate, and the dough is perfect, too. The chocolate chips on top are really yummy. I very much recommend this, moist and fresh and perfect babka! Definitely hard to stop at one slice.

I’m a babka fan, enjoying it whenever I’m in New York. Trader Joe’s babka is good – but in my opinion it doesn’t take the top prize. Green’s babka is more moist, and sets the standard. I’ll continue to get Green’s shipped, but if I’m at a Trader Joe’s and feel the craving, I’ll still pick one up.

No taste, either chocolate or cinnamon or butter. Just oily. Pretty awful. A big disappointment since it looked so good in the packaging. Will be returning!
