I was given a box of chocolates for my birthday, have just opened then and I can't believe I have never tried them...

Monty bojangles berry burst - they are raspberry flavoured with popping candy, and so absolutely delicious.

Anyone want to share any other delicious discoveries ?

Oh yes Nom Nom were fab.

Yes to Lily O'Briens caramels with salt pouch. Also love their sticky toffee pouch. And their salted caramel bars and the bar with orange oil. But I adore Butlers chocolates especially their salted caramel cafe collection and their latte, chocolate flake, almond cafe, cafe mocha and salted almond crocant chocolates. In fact the only Butlers chocolate I don't like is their marzipan one. But only cause I hate marzipan. They also do their own hot chocolate at home, where you melt little 'chocolate cups' into milk😍. And you can buy bags of their coffee beans or ground coffee too. I had my first take away coffee in 6 months from there yesterday. I forgot how much I missed it and the delicious chocolate you get with the coffee (had the salted almond crocant).

Valrohna babibe milk chocolate, 43% and my namesake chocolate by Zotter

Zotter · 24/06/2021 23:29

And forgot to say yes to Mon Cheri!

Another vote for Rittersport Marzipan.
(Accidentally dropped a bar of it down the back of a kitchen cupboard in 1987 in the old house - still fretting about it....

Hotel Chocolate’s ‘sandwiches’

@Shouldbedoing

Morrisons do a stunning lemon.and juniper chocolate bar
Lemon you say? Is it chunky?
bendmeoverbackwards · 24/06/2021 23:35

Also Everyman Cinema’s chocolate buttons, they are amazing!

Most Ritter Sport especially marzipan and the salted almond one. The bars are a weird size, too much for one sitting but smaller than large bars…?

SinisterBumFacedCat · 24/06/2021 23:36

Chocolates of Glenshiel are amazing. The salted caramel chocolate is indescribable.

@CorianderBee Where do they get Mon Cheri's from I LOVE them but I can't find them anywhere... Woolworth used to have them every Christmas but I've not had any since they closed...

LostInTime · 24/06/2021 23:36

Ritter Sport Cornflake is the best one!
Then salted almond
Then biscuit or AlpenMilch

@StrangeLookingParasite

If you ever come to Paris, or have someone who can buy you things from here, get some ganaches from Le Chocolat Alain Ducasse, Manufacture à Paris, in rue de la Roquette (near Bastille).

The best chocolate ever.

@StrangeLookingParasite one thing I remember about Paris was a cafe that did the best hot chocolate ever. It was thick and creamy rather than milky. Like drinking liquid chocolate.

I’ve seen that Yorkie do an orange version, might have to try that!

MrsSchadenfreude · 24/06/2021 23:40

@bendmeoverbackwards that was probably Angelina’s.

Yes that was it!

JaffacakeJanine · 24/06/2021 23:47

Hotel Chocolat Cashew Chocolates. I don't normally love nutty stuff, but these are soooo good, slightly salted and just hits every spot 😍

Konditor and Cook sometimes do these autumn chocolate bags with acorns and autumn leaves which are perfect.

Cakeofdoom · 25/06/2021 00:21

Poundland versions of Lindor, i've had the salted caramel and the pink truffle one, way better than Lindor and a third of the price

Footle · 25/06/2021 06:56

@SynchroSwimmer , I feel your pain at the one that got away. You could go back there..

Seasidemumma77 · 25/06/2021 07:00

Years ago I was given a box of cardamom flavoured Lindt balls, they were sensational but sadly have never found then in any shops

Igneococcus · 25/06/2021 07:11

One of the local village stores here sells this:
Bramble&Cardamonbar

I can happily live without chocolate but I usually buy a bar of this one when I happen to come past the shop.

Very disappointed with Tony's. Didn't like it at all.
Thinking of exploring the Hotel Choc range...

lborgia · 25/06/2021 07:44

Omg, Leonidas Manon- haven't had those for 25 years, must track some down.
