Favourite chocolate?

Lindor balls, any dark choc, Hotel Chocolat, coffee creams, Monty Bojangles truffles. Anything else if the foregoing are not available

Used to like Cadbury milk tray bar and frys five centre bar I like chocolate covered nuts and raisins but try not to eat too many ?

Lindt 70% with sea salt.
Or chocolate from our local Artisan Chocolatier- made with the best Criollo cocoa beans and cocoa butter- and very subtle hints of flavours- again it has to be 70%.

Stuff like Lindor and most English (now American) milk chocolate just taste of fat- and are full of palm oil.

This is not just for taste or ecological reason btw. Palm oil chocolate was invented for soldiers during the Vietnam War- as the melting point of palm oil is lower thand body temperature, but cocoa butter higher. That means that palm oil chocolate sticks to and clog your arteries- whereas 'proper' chocolate with real cocoa beans does not- and 70% and over actually helps keep cholesterol low (and Orang-Outang will also thank you for it) win, win.

Remember though, it has to be 70% + dark chocolate, and made with proper cocoa butter NOT palm oil:

There is, however, other evidence that chocolate has health benefits. A review (admittedly not a systematic one, which would be more reliable, since it would tell you how the studies included in the review were chosen) of cocoa and cardiovascular health in the journal Circulation suggests that epicatechin, a specific flavanol, may have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects that protect the inner walls of blood vessels from atherosclerosis. So chocolate may be due some credit for widening blood vessels, keeping their lining smooth and increasing blood flow.

Chocolate has also been found, in some studies, to reduce blood pressure and the risk of stroke. Dark chocolate, with 70% cocoa solids, is the healthiest, since it has little sugar, its fat comes from cocoa butter and it contains iron and magnesium.

Moser Roth from Aldi.

Yes that's nice- but again, the dark 70% one. I got some yesterday .... in Switzerland ahah.

Grandma60 and Granjura - that's the one - Moser Roth. I usually have one of the little wrapped bars from the packet in my bag, sometimes it lasts a week. Earlier I found one I'd forgotten secreting in a rarely used teapot!

Raw chocolate especially with almonds.
