To ask for your posh chocolate recommendations

[crochetmonkey74]

Inspired by another thread where a poster said she always has a box of lovely chocolates on the go and has one a night, I'd love to do this. I have a really sweet tooth, and do like to eat chocolate at night but I'm finding every bar too big , but of course if you start one, you finish it. I think I'd like to do the one chocolate thing but I'm very much a Cadbury person at mo and all the boxed chocolates in the supermarkets are a bit meh. So I need recommendations for boxes of lovely chocs , where you can just eat one at a time

I used to love Paul Young, when I lived more central, no idea if they deliver.

I’m surprised at the posters saying you can’t eat one a night. If I have a box of nice chocolates that’s what I always do. Especially if they’re expensive - I like to make them last!

I wouldn't have the willpower for just one.

Charbonnel et Walker's Marc de Champagne truffles saved my Christmas last year.

So many good recommendations to try out! I agree about the dark bitterness , I find I dont want more than one if it's a flavoured truffle too. Havent had thorntons for years so will look, lindor balls are ok but sometimes even one is a bit sickly for me. I do like a lindt bunny though but again I'd eat it all.

Fucking hell. £82 for 49 chocolates though! (If I had the money I'd bloody buy them though, they are so good)

[quote meditrina]You can get Fortnums online

These!

Yes to Hotel Chocolat. I like the raspberry smoothie ones, and any of theirs with praline.

I got s gorgeous box of Prestat for my birthday. Delicious and beautiful packaging

Some of the Fortnums chocolates are made near me. In Hampshire.

I did fancy trying some Paul Young chocs.

I can highly recommend a couple of lovely chocolate makers who deliver amazing handmade chocolates - Chococo and de Rosier

@Simbacatisback - you are very wicked, and I think I love you for that link!

Hotel Chocolat! 😁

These are delicious and not bank-breaking. I don't really do chocolates - apart from these.

Another recommendation for Charbonnel et Walker just can't beat them especially the Marc de champagne truffles!

I second Paul Young chocolates, they are amazing. The plus side of COVID is that started selling online. I normally always get a box when I'm in London.

I like Booja-booja dark Ecuadorian truffles for a treat.

Amazing

I think all chocolates have shrunk in size and one just doesn't do it. Once upon a time you could bite into a Thorntons truffle- not anymore. 😢

Domori Porcelana - dark chocolate that I actually like. And they sell it in tiny bars of 25 grams so you can eat the whole thing. But very expensive.

DH used to buy it when he went to Switzerland - sadly he doesn’t go very often now and they won’t deliver to U.K. as far as I can see since (bloody) Brexit. But if you’re ever in Zurich they sell it at the Merkur shop at the top of the Bahnhofstrasse.

Cornflake milk in the smoothest chocolate - I could eat a kilo of it right now.

What's the deal with Hotel Chocolat? Mostly tastes like that really cheap advent calendar chocolate to me?

I usually split a bar of Green and Black's or Divine and try to ration it out to myself throughout the week...
