Subject: Favorite chocolates/chocolate bars?

Written By: violet_shy on 06/28/21 at 1:42 pm

I love Peanut M&M's and Mars bars!

Once in a while, I will go all out and buy some Gourmet chocolates. I like Lindt chocolate truffles. They're pricey but worth it.

Hershey's Chocolate Bars and once in a while I'll enjoy M & M's whether it be peanut or regular.

I like a lot of different types of chocolate. I don't think there are many I don't like...  :)
I like the taste of chocolate and peanut butter, so my favorite is peanut butter cups. I also like peanut butter M&Ms.

My go-to Chocolate bar for years has been the Nestle Mirage.  I love it!

Never heard of this. I wonder if it is available here in the US?

I love the ones from See's Candies (a franchise that is California-based). They can be pricey, but they're really good. I also like to share them.

I looked them up online, yup they are pricey. That means they're good quality chocolate. Just like Lindt.

For me the best chocolate is the cheapest chocolate. I don’t think there’s anything cheaper per pound than almond bark.

Milk is ok, but if I had to choose I like anything semi sweet or dark.

I LOVE dark chocolate. With the cordial cherries! It goes perfect together.

Been awhile but when we had a Kmart, they always had cases of those things for dirt cheap after Christmas. I’d stock up.

Yeah, I think I may have shared the link with you a while back (possibly in a PM). They are good quality, indeed. The dark chocolate is my favourite.

In fact, I only ever go there once a year, usually in late January or so.

All chocolate is a dream for me,
For now I have that allergy.
It has been a while since I've had that,
But my past favourite was Kit-Kat.

I heard Kit Kat has come out with different flavors but nothing beats the chocolate wafer originals.

Butterfinger.

Ever since the brand was sold to Ferrero it tastes better in my opinion.

Is this just chocolate? If so it is the same as a Cadbury’s Wispa

My top choice would be a Snickers, for just a regular chocolate bar.  If I was splashing out then either Swiss or Belgian milk

I've loved the Lindt Excellence 70% Dark Chocolate bars since they first started advertising them here.  There's very little sugar in them or any weird or unpronounceable ingredients in them.

Reese's Cups


Here in Canada, a standard size of Reese's Cups comes 3 in a package.  I only recently learned a few years ago that you guys in the States only get 2 per pack

Aw, that’s kind of a bummer. Yeah, I guess there is that sweetness factor. I personally love dark chocolate myself. But I also like other kinds.

What kind of dark chocolate bar have you been eating? I get the Lindt Excellence 70% Cacao because it has a little less sugar in it and it doesn't make me bounce off of the walls.
