Coffee cream chocolates anyone?

I wasn’t particularly keen on coffee chocolates until my lovely niece sent me a box from Hotel Chocolat. Absolutely delicious!

Both my parents loved coffee creams but both disliked coffee to drink.
My favourite in the ROSES are the purple one, the orange cream, the nut swirl and golden barrel.
Strawberry being my least favourite.

I meant to add I don't like coffee creams, but used to drink coffee.

I don't like caramels or most toffees and really dislike ground-nut pralines, except almond. I find most creams just too sickly. So not one for mass produced chocolates then?!

I used to love the Black magic coffee creams.I remember it as a soft runny cream but the ones now are hard and very disappointing !

Dislike coffee, strawberry and orange creams and now avoid toffees since one pulled out a gold inlay (the dentist stuck it back down). Like Turkish delight, pralines, fudge, truffles. Green & Black Ginger chocolate is my favourite.

I used to like the lime creams - can't remember who made them. My grandmother used to squash up the remaining creams and stir them into her home made ice cream - my picky sister never twigged! Happy Holidays everyone.

My favourite has always been Quality Street's penny toffee and I've never been keen on the fruit flavoured cremes.

I hate the creams - especially fruit ones! Love marzipans, coconut, nuts, noisettes etc. Then fudges and toffees.
When I was young, (60 years ago!!!) I used to feed the creams to our dog!!!! My father went mad! Happy days….

Coffee creams are my favourite too, but so hard to find. I love anything coffee flavoured. I don’t like orange creams or soft caramels.

I was a student nurse in the 70’s and many patients would give a tin or box of chocolates when they were discharged. The coffee creams,strawberry creams and the hard toffees were always the ones that were left until last!

I like all of them particularly coffee creams. 2nd favourites are turkish delight and fudge.

I adore coffee chocolates but you’re right they’re hardly ever included nowadays. Thornton’s still do them, another reason they’re my favourite brand and if you have a shop nearby you can buy individual flavours by the bag.

I agree with you Sardinia202, I love anything with nuts, but can’t stand the squidgy ones, even coffee. Luckily DH will eat any chocolates!

Anything chocolate except Turkish delight ugh!

Black magic coffee creams are the best!

I like them all but I'm sorry that Cadbury's Roses are no longer wrapped in the twist papers . We used to make a garland out of them around the TV.

My teeth can't cope with toffee, but I love it. But strangely not caramel ones. But send ANYTHING else you don't like to me! 😜😜😜

I'm very happy with those with most chocolate in them, or Turkish delight which my DG Hates!

I didn’t know Black Magic still existed- I must search. I also remember toffee and mallow being delicious. However, although I don’t like fruit creams as a rule, I loved their orange cream because of the contrast with the dark chocolate. I remember I even liked the shape - a long slim triangle. Does anyone remember when Fry’s did a a chocolate cream bar matching their traditional dark choc with white fondant centre, but with different fruit creams in the one bar. The lime cream was gorgeous. This was back in the 60s and I don’t think it lasted long, sadly. Probably expensive to produce.

I'd forgotten about coffee creams. I don't think I've had one for years. I hate coffee normally (to drink that is) but goodness I used to love coffee creams. Might try and see if I can buy some when the Christmas chocolate mountain has disappeared from our house. Surely the best chocolates in the world are Bendicks Bitter Mints . I remember when you used to be able to buy them buy the yard - think we always had them at Christmas time when i was little!

Love coffe creams and black magic!

Orange, strawberry or cherry cream - yummy. My sister got some chocolates as a present when she was about 10. She'd left the ones she wasn't keen on in the box on the window sill in our shared bedroom. I was about 16 and she was asleep in bed when I went up to go to bed. As I was getting ready for bed, she suddenly sat bolt upright, eyes still shut , and reached round to locate the two chocolates she'd left in the box. She quickly gobbled them up and lay down again. I said "Karen, Karen -are you awake". No response. When I told her the next morning that she'd eaten the chocolates she didn't like, she didn't believe me at first, then uttered an emphatic "yeuch" at the thought! Still tease her about it. 🤣

Coffee creams are my least favourite, also strawberry, which is really sickly. Favourites are orange cream, coconut, Turkish delight, and will eat most of the others. My favourite orange cream of all time is the one in black magic, but black magic are crap nowadays, hardly any selection. My second favourite in Black Magic was toffee and mallow, which they don’t have any more. I prefer dark chocolate creams than milk chocolate which can be too sickly.

I like soft centres and my friend likes toffees and other hard centres - whenever we have a box of Roses, Quality Street etc, we eat our favourites - and then swap...
Delight all round, and no left-over chocs thrown away..! 😀
