Pierre Herme Truffles

The truffles from the Pierre Herme concession at Selfridges were somewhat different from ones I would usually try myself.  I didn’t enjoy all the macaron chocolates and so these ones were somewhat worrying.  I am not universally in love with ...

Dairy Milk Caramel Nibbles

There is nothing wrong with liking the occasional bit of Dairy Milk.  It’s my not-so-secret indulgence. This bag had my name on it – literally – for only a few days before I had it opened and munching. I always find ...

Thorntons Milk Chocolate with Tonka Bean

This milk chocolate bar has 38% Venezuelan chocolate with cocoa butter infused with Tonka beans. This was a bit weird for me as I used to use tonka beans in incense making. The scent of the tonka bean hit me immediately ...

Thorntons Milk Chocolate Bar Review

Laura Second Chocolates

Not the best chocolate in the world, but something that comes straight from my childhood and will remain close to my heart.  I’ll always have a french mint chocolate bar melted slowly in a hot drink and allowed to melt ...

Metropolitan Selection from Thorntons Review

Most people equate Thorntons with higher quality chocolate than Cadburys and yet in chocolate lovers circles it has long been known as a poor relation, often with poor quality chocolate. It was with some interest I saw them boldly ...

Feeding Your Imagination Chocolates

I was given some samples of the "Feeding Your Imagination" chocolate which comes with some imaginative names. I got "Yang", "Seductive", "Sensual", and "Mistress" given to me. They are heart-shaped chocolates wrapped in black foil. Very different ...
