Favourite chocolate?

Raw chocolate especially with almonds.

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!

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

Moser Roth from Aldi.

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.

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.

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 ?

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

The best chocolates I ever had were many years ago when I worked in London and a client of the firm I worked for gave me a box of Fortnum and Mason's chocolates for Christmas. They were plain chocolate with a violet cream centre and a crystalised violet on top. Heaven doesn't begin to describe them .

Am halfway through a slab of Hotel Chocolat almond and caramel. Wonderful! It was half price! I bought three. If the shop was nearer, I would have been back for more. I am also very partial to Green and Black salted caramel thin bars. Sometimes tempted by Boosts when I go to pay for petrol. I have chocolate every day, I have to admit.

Fry's Chocolate Cream or Plain Bounty

reading this I have just eaten 4 twirls, they are much smaller than they used to be hence the four.
I love all chocolate in any shape or form even cooking chocolate if theres no other in the house.

Has to be Lidl's equivalent of the snicker bar, I think it's tastier than the snicker and a lot cheaper ??

Thornton's Continental Assortment, Bendick's mints, Lindt hazelnut milk, home made Florentine's with Bourneville dark chocolate.

But at the cinema it's got to be pick n' mix chocolate peanuts.

How could I miss out the chocolates from Paul A Young? Love choosing to fill a little box of four, or, rarely, a box of nine. Extraordinary flavours. We slice and share. Oldest Grandson loves salted caramel, available in jars too!! His younger bro impresses the assistants with his knowledge of the flavours of ganache!

Anything by Green and Black or Divine. I keep a tiny bar of dark chocolate from Aldi in my bag, my 'emergency chocolate'.
'What emergency needs chocolate?' asked daughter.
'You'd be surprised,' I told her!

I love all the Lindor balls, so silky & smooth. Plus Lidl's whole hazelnut, G& B's ginger & H otel Chocolat's Eton Mess....actually, just about any HC!

Lindt especially the little chocolate bunnies .

I love giant chocolate buttons which need to be eaten two at a time, flat sides together like a sandwich.

Lindt bar filled with liquid raspberries and lindor.

Either Leonidas Belgian, or Lidl dark high cocoa content single origin

Lindt! How did I forget Lindt? Lindt anything really ...

Mmmm marzipan bar from Thorntons. Lindt strawberry. Mint aero..

My favourite chocolates are Bounty and Twirl.

Cadbury's milk. Anything in the range but favourites are quality street and roses. YUM
