Macadamia and chocolate should be a match made in heaven but Ritter Sport’s Nut Perfection Macadamia Milk Chocolate is anything but. The chocolate is too sweet, and the macadamia nut chunks are too small. It should work, but it just doesn’t.

Melting Pot Fudge – Irish Cream Liqueur and White Chocolate
Melting Pot’s Irish Cream Liqueur and White Chocolate fudge is, frankly, one of the most fabulous bits of fudge I’ve ever had. Super soft, full of flavour, absolutely awesome. Shame it’s a bit hard to find!

Willie’s Cafe Negro – Dark Chocolate with Coffee
Willie’s Cafe Negro is supposed to be a dark chocolate tasting of ‘smooth sophisticated coffee’. It’s a hard dark chocolate that doesn’t really taste of coffee and is actually quite unpleasant. Had one bite and threw the rest out.

Kit Kat Peanut-butter bites
Better than the White Chocolate Kit Kat Bites – but not hugely so. Slightly less sweet, but still rather too sweet and not particularly tasting of peanut butter either.

Montezuma’s 37% Smooth Milk Chocolate
Solid reasonably chunky bar, feels good to eat and tastes good as well. What’s not to like – aside from the price? [star rating=”4/5″]
Willie’s El Blanco White Chocolate
I really feel I should like Willie’s chocolate, but I’m always disappointed. I don’t like the slightly greasy mouth feel and strangely spiky crunch of this bar, and while it’s not quite the overpowering taste of condensed milk that some other white chocolate bars, have it’s not that pleasant either. Strangely sweetly sour aftertaste.

Kit Kat White Chocolate Bites
Nasty. I like the Kit Kat Chunky White Chocolate Bars, but these are unpleasant. They’re far far too sweet, too small, and there’s not much bite to them. Avoid.

Lovely Fruity Nutty Crunchy
This should be a great chocolate bar. It has all the ingredients you want – crispy bits, raisins, peanuts, chocolate… but it’s not impressive and not worth £2.25. The chocolate coating’s not thick enough and the whole thing doesn’t have enough bite/chew to it.

Willie’s Hazelnut and Raisin Dark Chocolate Bar
Hazelnut and raisin and dark chocolate? A match made in heaven surely?
But in this bar, this combination absolutely doesn’t work. The raisins and nuts are chopped too finely and are lost in an overpowering dark chocolate which has a surprisingly long bitter after-taste.

Magnum Signature Chocolate
Surprisingly bitter for a milk chocolate, with a short-ish sharp and intense sour aftertaste. Ok mouth-feel and crumb.
Don’t like it.

Waitrose 1 Costa Rican Dark Chocolate
I do want to like Waitrose’s own brand chocolate. I do. But I’ve yet to have a bar (and I’ve tried most of the flavours) that was even moderately nice. Continue reading “Waitrose 1 Costa Rican Dark Chocolate”
White Chocolate Snickers Bar. WHY?
There’s a reason why the white chocolate Snickers bar is a limited edition: it’s bloody awful. The white chocolate is thin and crumbly and breaks apart as soon as you bite it, and is absolutely horrible tasting.
One of the worst ‘chocolate’ bars I’ve ever had.
