Ferrero Rocher or Terry's Chocolate Orange - which do you prefer?

[WildRosie]

If neither, say neither. I'm asking because I have a box of 24 FR all to myself. I've already scoffed two. I don't have a TCO.

I'm sitting on the fence. Equally good.

Neither

Creeping my own thread here but I think Aldi chocolate is quite decent. I occasionally buy the five-packs of small bars, either plain or milk. They've gone up in price by nearly 40p in a year!

Ooh now you've thrown in a curve ball.

Aldi aren't international so the votes may be skewed... 😀

So I'll throw in the white FR as my other option.

I had a Ferrero Rocher Easter egg a couple of years ago and it was the most god aweful thing I had ever tasted and I actually threw it away (which is unheard of with me and chocolate). It really need the hazelnut cream to taste good as the chocolate isn't on its own.

Terry’s Chocolate Orange, but the dark chocolate one.

I have a nut allergy so wouldn’t eat the Ferrero Rocher anyway.

Any TCO - don't like FR at all

They are fucking about with most chocolates these days. I bought some Quality Street for Christmas thinking they won't be too bad, as they haven't messed around with the recipes of ours too much as yet.

I had got a 3 for 2 deal so had bought 2 boxes. The first had no strawberry cream in and the second had no orange creme. They are the only reason I buy the bloody things. Plenty toffees though.

If you want to know how to upset a woman in peri, quality street have mastered it.

Ferraro. Chocolate oranges used to taste lovely but they now taste waxy to me. I suspect they use more Pam oil now.

I don't eat chocolate that contributes to the destruction of precious wildlife habitats.

Both 😊 (although not at the same time)

Do raffaello (the white FR) count? They were included in my FR advent calendar from FIL and are absolutely the food of the gods 😍

FR, rather than TCO.

Last year Aldi had a Toblerone type that was very good. Only a white chocolate one this year. Which is not choc in my opinion.

TCO

FR, the ones in the white wrapper are my favourite, then the gold wrapper. I don’t like the ones in the brown wrapper.

A friend of mine ALWAYS gives me a box of FR for Xmas, so I excitedly opened my present from her……and it was a different make 😓

"Scoffed 2"?

Was that supposed to be 20?

2 is hardly scoffing. Not in the real world anyway.

I gave DS(8) a Toblerone and a TCO as he likes both. FR are revolting and far too much packaging.

TCO! Eating my 4th segment as I type.

Bloody hell where's the question here - Terry's of course!

I don't like either, but I'd go for FR if there was a gun against my head.

TCO are a waste of a good orange!

I've got both, the chocolate orange was part of a gift, the Ferrero I bought myself as I like them.

Out if the two, I prefer the Ferraro Rocher, as I love chocolate with nuts.

Ferrero. There are lots of orange chocolate these days that Terry's chocolate orange doesn't seem special anymore.

Aldi did used to have a FR lookalike called something similar to Niccolo. Can't remember exact name.

They were quite nice and much cheaper too. If I'd seen them first I wouldn't have bought the FR.

TCO

FR only if given one & it seems rude to refuse.

QS definitely smaller & not as nice and now they're fucking about with the wrappers as well. The Christmas tree lights making the wrappers twinkle is a big part of the nostalgia.

small plastic tubs, half full & half the sweets wrapped in this weird paper really aren't the same & are killing (have killed) the nostalgia!!

Last time I bought a TCO it had changed recipe, similar to Cadbury, and tasted awful. I haven't tasted or bought one since, I would probably decline a piece if offered.

If it was a choice between the two then I dont mind an occasional FR, but I wouldnt buy a full box.

Ferraro Rocher all day every day. Lovely chocolate orange as a flavour but TCO is not the best for some reason.
