To think salted caramel Lindt balls...

Are the best thing ever?
Especially on a warm day when they are all melty and gooey?
I think they may be the nicest thing I have ever eaten.
I don’t work for Lindt btw, although maybe I should. Am seeking views to settle a household debate. Have name changed so the whole household can’t link to my previous threads.

Unpopular opinion but coconut ones are the best. Peanut butter ones sound amazing!

Christ woman (or man) why let me see this at 21.59 when the shop shuts at 10.00??? I'm going to be drooling all night now. Grin

52% say you're right. The nation has spoken. Everyone has to have Salted caramel lindt balls. Anyone who says otherwise is a loser and needs to get over it.

[quote CazzaCat]@Erictheavocado oh my god you’re so bad showing us this I didn’t know they had the pick and mix online.... Grin[/quote]
Let's call it my good deed for the day! Seriously, a few years ago dh bought me a huge box of about 50 coffee flavour ones. I was in heaven.
It's nice to go to the shop though as they often have 'specials' in the pick and mix - at Christmas they had tiny Santa Clauses. And Irish cream flavour.

They are rank-when the gooey middle is released- boak- reminds me of a chocolately locket

I love Lindt choc truffle balls especially the hazelnut one but none of the varieties I’ve tried love me sadly 🙁. I can eat one or two but anymore and I get stomach ache and diarrhoea. I can eat a wide variety of other chocolate including Thornton’s, Cadbury’s, Nestle, Galaxy etc so it must be something they use or add to the chocolate that doesn’t agree with me.

Atthebottomofthegarden I do love a Ferrero Rocher and do agree the originals are clearly best. But if there was a fight I think the salted caramel balls would win. Although that may be influenced by the fact I’ve been eating ferrero rocher for decades and the balls have only been in my life a week.

You are ON to something with the Lindt ball diet. 75-80 cals each, a couple after lunch, couple after dinner is only 300 a day. I could eat nothing but celery and carrot sticks as long as I could have Lindt balls at the end.

BellyMama · 16/07/2020 22:15

YABU the Christmas ones with the milk choc on the outside and white in the middle. I’ve been on a Lindt ball diet for years but currently dairy free - the only chocolate I actually miss 😩

Shesellsseashellsontheseashore · 16/07/2020 22:18

Salted caramel yes! Also the amaretto ones.

hedgehogger1 · 16/07/2020 22:19

I literally had some of these arrive today. When I did my last amazon shop they popped up on offer

They are too artificial tasting for me.

Coconut are my favourite Lindt Lindors.

@GotGameByThePound

My Christmas centrepiece is a large vase filled with green, red and gold Lindt balls.

Though, every one of them has a slight mint taste by Christmas Day.

This is genius......
JacobReesMogadishu · 16/07/2020 22:25

Why aren’t all these flavours in the shops? I’m not paying online prices for chocolate!

InFiveMins · 16/07/2020 22:26

I don't like Lindt chocolate...... Shock Even thinking about them is making me feel a bit sick.I love chocolate but just don't like Lindt.

ZazieRosa · 16/07/2020 22:27

There used to be Baileys ones. They were amazing. Sadly no more.

Rockbird · 16/07/2020 22:29

Coconut is the best. However, despite never having had one, I think mango have knocked them off the top spot. I need mango Lindors!

augustusglupe · 16/07/2020 22:35

The White Chocolate with strawberry balls are the best!! I can’t have them in the house.

Mummiepig · 16/07/2020 22:35

You’re all wrong! The champagne one is THE best
Used to love the Irish cream one too but I don’t think they make it anymore
So I’ll settle for original red or mint as my favourites

Toddlerteaplease · 16/07/2020 22:37

Ugh, Lindy chocolate is vile. Especially the balls.

And I have a reputation for eating any chocolate, but I won't touch those!
