Pierre Marcolini Selection Box

In terms of the overall experience, this chocolate selection box has to be the best of 2011.

Cocoa Black Dark Chocolate Selection Box

It would be hard to find a more gorgeous chocolate selection box than this anywhere in the world.

William Curley Sea Salt Caramel Bar

If you wanted to buy a bar of chocolate to enjoy with your wife or husband then I couldn't think of a bar more enjoyable than this.

Chocolate Craft Assortment

I love getting selection boxes sent to me as I never know what they'll be like. This one from Chocolate Craft I thought was lovely.

More Double Trouble Chocolate Fudge

If you love your fudge very sweet then you won't go too far wrong with this from the Fudge Kitchen.

Jean-Paul Hévin Príncipe 75%

I'm normally fond of what Jean-Paul Hévin does. But with this one I thought was way off the mark!

Cocoa Black Gourmet Easter Egg

What do you call a gourmet Easter egg? Well I wouldn't label this one as anything over than below average.

Wittamer Sugar Free Dark Chocolate

I don't think I've ever tried a sugar-free or diabetic bar of chocolate that I actually liked. But it must be so hard to make chocolate taste great without at least some sugar? Well Wittamer doesn't actually do too bad a job here.

Amelia Rope 71% Dark Chocolate From Mexico

If you're looking for a dark chocolate bar with a slightly sweet flavour but nothing too dramatic then this could be the perfect bar for you. Amelia may not be making it any more, but its certainly worth trying to find out if she has any left.

Zotter Plum Brandy

Often I'm just perplexed by the flavours that Zotter create, but this one works, and works very well indeed. If you like alcoholic chocolate this one should give you the hit you crave.

Czekolada Deserowa Prażone Ziarno Kakao

This 70% Dark Chocolate From Ghana bar from Manufactura Czekolady was a lot sweeter than I thought. Instead of having an acidic tone, it was more fruity and sweet.

Thorntons Coconut & Lime White Chocolate Bar

The Thorntons Coconut & Lime White Chocolate Bar is actually one of the best white chocolate bars I've tasted in a good while. There's no major sweetness and the lime flavour plays a significant enough role to really appeal to me.

Original Hawaiian 60% Dark Chocolate

I enjoyed this Original Hawaiian 60% Trinitario Dark Chocolate bar but expect it would have tasted much better when it was fresh last year, instead of waiting eight months to review it. It produces a mild flavour that be a perfect compromise for people just starting their dark chocolate experiences.

Blyss Chocolate Tangerine Romance

Ah Blyssfull chocolate. This was a big hit for me. And that's not only because of the ethics behind the company,

Lindt Petit Desserts Tarte Citron Meringue Milk Chocolate

If you like sweet and sickly milk chocolate then this Lindt Petit Desserts Tarte Citron Meringue will be heaven to you. But if you like fine chocolate then give it a wide birth.

Charbonnel et Walker Vanilla Truffles

Unless you like very sweet white chocolate truffles I'd give these ones from Charbonnel et Walker a miss. They've very sweet indeed.

Amedei 1er Cru 70% Single Origin From Madagascar

The Amedei 1er Cru 70% Single Origin From Madagascar was a very good bar of chocolate, but what else would you expect from this company?

Prestat Choxi 70% Dark Chocolate Bar With Oriental Mint

Quite possibly the worst chocolate experience of the year. Far from enjoyable, it just tasted fake and didn't offer me anything to be positive about.

Michel Cluizel 1er Cru de Plantation “Mangaro”

This Michel Cluizel 1er Cru de Plantation Mangaro is a very fruity bar of dark chocolate that may be too sweet for most dark chocolate lovers.

Domori Porcelana 70% Dark Chocolate Bar

The Domori Porcelana 70% Dark Chocolate Bar is truly a wonderful bar of dark chocolate made with the Porcelana Criolllo cacao bean from Venezuela. It is delicious, but not very bitter or a wide range of notes.

Michel Cluizel Los Ancones 67%

This Los Ancones dark chocolate bar from Michel Cluizel is, indeed, a very enjoyable bar. But it just didn't offer the range of flavours that I expected. It is very creamy but there wasn't enough character to keep me interested too long.

Chocolate Sablé

Ah! The lack of an e-ecut in the product label made me wonder if I was about to consume some Zotter-like animal-based biscuit confection. Luckily Wikipedia was at hand to set the record straight and inform that a sablé is a biscuit that originates from Sablé-sur-Sarthe in north-eastern France and was...

Rose And Violet Dark Chocolate

This 66% dark chocolate bar with rose and violet was more bitter than I anticipated and would have preferred it to be lighter and more fragrant.

Thorntons Dark Chocolate With Colombian Coffee

This bar could have done with a more prominent coffee flavour and a fair bit less of the sugar. At first it tasted really good, but then the sugar came through and pushed the espresso off the stage and demanded your attention.

Paul A. Young Valentine’s Brownie

What more could you want from a special Valentine's chocolate treat? This brownie from Paul A. Young is special in that its incredibly moist and flavoursome. Just don't eat it all in one go, you'll want to savour every bite.

Handmade Strawberry & Champagne Chocolate Truffles

I don't recall tasting any truffles in the past few months as delicious as these. The sweetness is more of the fructose variety than anything artificial and the Champagne is just of the right strength to add some warmth without being overly intoxicating. Just delightful.

Buffalo Milk Chocolate

There's nothing powerful or acute with this milk chocolate bar made with buffalo's milk but Artisan du Chocolate have done a great job creating something different.

Duffy’s Heart Of Panama 70% Dark Chocolate

This bar may be out of stock now, but its worth seeing if you can get hold of any of his other dark chocolate to try. I've never found a bar yet that I haven't enjoyed.

Artisan du Chocolat Brazil Rio Doce 72%

This Rio Doce bar from Artisan du Chocolat is anything but sweet. It's very bitter and doesn't have a very espansive variety of flavours. It's not one for the fainthearted.

Artisan du Chocolat Sea Salted Caramels with Lemongrass

These Artisan du Chocolat Sea Salted Caramels with Lemongrass were ok but certianly not worth seeking out.

Patrick Roger 75% Dark Chocolate From Peru

This Patrick Roger 75% Dark Chocolate From Peru dark chocolate bar was a huge dissapointment and nothing compared to his other bars. I might just have had a bad one, so if you've had it and it was good then please let me know.

Amedei Toscano Black 70%

If you're one that likes robust and flavoursome dark chocolate, you will be left very dissapointed with the Amedei Toscano Black 70% Dark Chocolate Bar. It's too mild.

Wittamer Sugar Free Milk Chocolate

I didn't really expect this bar to be anything other than poor, and I was proven right!

Cottage Delight Chocolate Chip Biscuits

These chocolate chip biscuits from Cottage Delight were anything but delightful. I really didn't get on too well with them.

Harrods 67% Dark Chocolate Bar

Ah the label that tourists love: Harrods. But the thing is, just like Fortnum and Mason they don’t actually make their own chocolate (as far as I’m aware), instead they get other chocolate manufactures to produce stuff and they just wrap it in their own logo and flog it to unsuspecting tourists....
