Valrhona Gran Couva Dark Chocolate

Oooh! This is a wonderfully sweet dark chocolate that ticks so many boxes and will leave you wanting more. 64% cocoa generally is at the bottom of my range for luxury chocolate, I don’t typically go for anything much less than that, but I feel one the greatest sins in chocolate is not to try any...

You should really avoid the Sainsbury's Basics Dark Chocolate, its just not very nice. But everyone is different so you may feel like giving it a go.

This Caribe 70% Dark Chocolate bar isn't my favourite from Domori but it still has an edge on many other dark chocolate bars.

The Macadamia Royals in Dark Chocolate from Paton were terrible, bland and without charcter, give them a miss.

This J.D. Gross Premium Cocoa Dark Chocolate From Ecuador may have only been 99p from Lidl, but it was excellent value.

The Dammenberg 72% Extra Dark Chocolate Bar wasn't as good as I thought it would be, quite disappointing really.

These Dammenberg No Added Sugar Mint Dark Chocolate Buttons are generally suitable for diabetics so if you're buying a present for a diabetic then consider these.

I didn't think the William Curley Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Thins were all that great and didn't match the hype.

This 52% dark chocolate bar is actually raw, but tastes a lot better than you may think.

The packaging in understated but it does...

The Michel Cluizel Noir Infini 99% chocolate bar is expceptionally bitter and you should only buy it if you want your taste buds to be slapped.
