I hate chocolate and candies because my sense of taste is super, so it's like eating syrup mixed with sugar. But it's so pretty, and the wrapping is pretty too. just like seashells, love to watch, but wouldnt dream of eating.

I like dark chocolate, 70% to 80% cacao bean. That sugary confection known as "Milk Chocolate" is too sweet for me.

Toblerone or Thornton's (The latter I think is just a UK brand).

If I can find certified cockroach free chocolate, that will the best.

Milk chocolate is just disgusting. It's like coffee for me: I like the pure taste and essence of the beans, I don't want to dilute it down with unnecessary sugars and sweeteners. The darker, the better.

Almost any chocolate from Freia and Nidar is bound to be good.

Cloetta's Sport Lunch and Center too. And Ljus Block (Swedish, don't recall the producer).

Kinder egg, Kinder Maxi and Ferrero Rocher from Ferrero SpA.

Toblerone is good too.



I'm so surprised whenever people say they don't like chocolate! 8O I've always loved it. If you like beautiful chocolate, OP, you should see Sfinx from Nidar. I always thought those pieces looked so beautiful. You can see some of them here:

My absolute favourite is the 85% cacao type, but I can't say I'm picky when it comes to chocolate.

I prefer dark chocolate the best. Also, anything from Russell Stover, Cadbury, and Hershey is excellent.

Lindt Truffles are AMAZING :heart:
I also highly enjoy eating very dark chocolate, preferably greater than 85% cacao.

Dark chocolate, 70% is just right, its even better with chillies, nuts or mint...
Thin Cadbury dairy milk slabs, Lindt truffles.

For a chocolate bar I'd say 70% with mint.

But I like rich chocolate desserts (cheesecakes and mousses) even more, because of the texture.
