Chocolate

[Notworthy]

I'm attempting to make a Cabana bar. So far so easy.

I had one of these today. It was nice but I'm not convinced the flavours work together that well.

There's also Aldi pretzel chocolate, much loved by those on the aldi and lidl thread

Uh-oh, don't encourage me more

 

[coconochanel]

Oooooh cant wait to try those. I've tried the Caramilk and it was lovely.

I usually get the 70% dark from Aldi but the last couple of purchases have not tasted the same, not sure if it's me or them.

Still seems the same for me.

Had the sea salt one for the first time today. It's really nice. Though was surprised how much sweeter it was than the 70% one, i must be used to that one now

Man I love a creme egg but that gets a no from me

Wonder what they’d taste like with chips and beans

m&s swiss chocolate is quite nice! That’s probs the most extravagant I’ve gone choccy wise

Apparently the Queen's favourites these:

Heritage Collection - Rose & Violet Creams

Heritage Collection - Rose & Violet Creams from Charbonnel et Walker - iconic London chocolatier. Perfect personalised chocolate gifts.

She likes dark chocolate, rather than milk or white chocolate. Almost £40 for a box of chocolates though.

I agree the aldi pretzel chocolate is unreal

You can get Milka proper cheap in Farmfoods

That way looks incredible but nowhere near big enough?!?


I lOoovVeeEe galaxy but never buy it. I always pick dairy milk as it’s usually on offer and I need to be careful when a chocolate addition is as bad as mine
oooo really fancy Galaxy. *goes to Tesco immediately*

 

[coconochanel]

I dont fancy the ferrero rocher bar.

The Big Mix chocolates are wonderful, they've been out Christmas tin of chocolates for the last few years

What kind of mix is in it?? I find some of them a bit too heavy on fondant for my liking.

I didn’t see this thread, I’m doing keto

Lily's chocolate is keto friendly-ish. Less sugar.

Depending on the sell by date it might not be. Tesco have the big tubs of Celebrations etc out. It is starting people

They sell them too early! Not because they're associated with Christmas but because they tend to be gone (especially Roses) in the last couple of weeks before Christmas.

So now I have to buy what I need for Christmas in Sept/Oct and keep them safe till then. Once bitten twice shy.

What is the most luxurious chocolate out there? It has to be something from Harrods or Fortnum & Mason hasn't it? I'd like to try something really luxurious as a real treat. But does price always equal quality when it comes to chocolate? I don't know.

Rococo chocolates are to die for. We used to have a store in Chester near where I live but it’s no longer there now, so I don’t get the enjoyment of picking out the individual truffles I want. They’re so good though!

How are you getting on? I'm on my 2nd day ..

I got this Aero bar from my local farmfoods today. I think it might be leftover Xmas stock but it’s delicious!

Are these good??

It’s okay, nothing exciting. Very expensive too.

 

[Ensay]

Oooh thanks for that Im going to get myself some.


Not really. I got the Kinder bueno one last year wasnt worth £8.

No worries. 75p isn't a massive reduction, but it's nice all the same!

 

[oogling]

Have you tried the other 2 flavours? I cant remember what they are though the white Ferrero one looks the best


I agree about the aero kit kat - looks a bit too minty green im intrigued though

My wife LOVES the white Ferraro!

Not sure if this has been mentioned but after eight strawberry and mint,
or orange and mint,
or even worse mango and pineapple or gin and mint.

No. No. Stop it.

Ooooooohhhhh, but the after eight Gin ones…………I’m dairy intolerant and I cannot resist tempting fate with those…bloody LOVELY!
