Roses or Quality Street?

Just remembered I also need diabetic chocs for one guest! And will have to check for gelatine as we have a veggie coming too....

None of the mixed tins etc as DD has a severe nut allergy. I see our John Lewis has the pick and mix option but it does look a lot more expensive than just buying the tins in Tesco. I think a trip to Hotel Chocolat is in order.

Neither.

Lindt is the all time worst though IMO

One of the reasons I voted Remain, Jura2... Europe is streets ahead in terms of not just chocolate, but food in general. And I do like me food!

(No, I'm not looking to discuss the B word all over again, thanks)

Green and blacks do do packs of minis. I get them for stockings

Neither since they dropped the coffee creams

After Eights and Elizabeth Shaw orange crisp chocs, or Matchmakers (or are they matchsticks??)

Blinko - sat on my hands for a while before saying it- and expected to be shot in flames for ruining Christmas - so thanks for acknowledging.

For me it's Aldi, Lindt, Hotel Chocolat, Thorntons or M&S. I dislike Hersheys horrible candy stuff - you really can't call it chocolate.

I'm afraid Jura2 may be right. We're going to get a whole lot more Amercian rubbish in the not too distant future...

Quality Street of course. But I wish Green & Blacks made Family Assortment tins. Please?

Neither, they don’t taste like they used to. I’ve bought a giant pack of Lindt truffles, currently of offer for £10 at Waitrose. Grrrr, paid full price. Still, I’ve managed not to open them by hiding them in the shed.

Quality Street for the coconut ones for me and of course a coconut Toblerone - yum!

I used to like Roses but they're not the same any more although that also has to do with my loss of smell and taste. I can remember boxes of Milk Tray with the lime barrel which I loved and Fry's 5 fruit bars. I find Thorntons too sweet. Lidl's and Aldi's chocolate is probably as good if not better these days.

As long as it’s chocolate, who cares. The ‘special ones’ are hidden just for me.

Roses, can't stand all the blasted toffees in Quality Street. Why don't they pack them in tins anymore? My favourite (and expensive) chocs are handcrafted from a local shop but no good for buying to hand round @ £8 for a box of 8 sweets...

Have to say that the very old Roses advert put me off them - the Norman Vaughan one that claimed 'Roses grow all over you!'.

Quality Street - for the 'Green Triangle' and the 'Big Purple Nutty' one!

Give me a bar of Galaxy any day!

I enjoy the odd chocolate from either but don't eat as much chocolate as I used to.

For the lady who likes M & S chocolates: Thorntons used to make these. Not sure if they still do.

Celebrations, Heroes but in view of a real tin instead of plastic would go for Quality Street. Of course I would never eat any, purely for guests!

Definitely roses , quality street seem to have a funny smell about them .

Not for me. I have a large box of Amalie chocolates which may or may not get shared over the holidays. Only I know their hiding place! Having said that it used to be roses as they don't have those horrible toffees.

Neither of them for sure. I agree with some of you here, I do prefer M&S. They do delicious chocolates all year round!

Both get worse and worse. The chocolates and the tins get smaller and the chocolate is not so nice any more. I buy a bar of Lindt hazelnut milk chocolate for a £2.50 or so and it's delicious.

I am looking forward to the post Christmas knocky-downies from the quality chocolate outlets like Thorntons and Hotel Chocolate. One year I bought ten packets of Thornton's chocolate snowmen for 10p each. John Lewis sell off their broken chocolate Christmas shaped products for bargainacious prices. I don't care if something's cracked if it tastes nice.

Neither...the individual sweets have shrunk and look and taste cheap. They come in a horrid plastic box as well. I'd rather pay more for environmentally friendly hand made organic dark chocolates
