What are some really good chocolates?
:pimp I love chocolate but realized I've never had any good stuff. What do you recommend?
|
|
Hershey Cookies N' Cream Damn I just love it
|
man i came here looking for hot black ghetto booty pics :(
|
Try Lindt, I think is how you spell it. You can buy it in most grocery stores, and it is not that expensive. but the flavor is great, and it is real smooth. I like it better than Godiva.

dark chocolate or milk?
chocolove.com has some of the best chocolate bars. You can buy them at Whole Foods Market and some other stores. http://www.lamaisonduchocolat.com/index.php if you are looking for premium stuff :) |
is there no milk in dark chocolate?

There is just more cocoa in dark chocolate which means more flavonoids which is better for you! |

Godiva is the way to go

if you want belgium chocs try godiva, theyre the worst of the best but 1 zillion times better then other stuff, besides the only ones you can get in the US on any corner of the street
be prepared to pay $80 for a box thats $10 here though... if you want something more exclusive see if you can get these http://www.ovidias.com/ and stay away from leonidas only dutch tourists buy them lol way too creamy cant keep them more then 10 days and theyre yukky |
I'm a Ghirardelli man myself...Damn those guys make some good chocolate. :thumbsup

Pick up the February issue of Consumer Reports. They have a whole article on chocolates.

This is way better than Godiva. Give it a shot.. you will thank me later ;) |
The BEST by far in my opinion is any of the Green and Blacks range. Its all organic and that makes all the difference, but I dont know if its available anywhere except the UK.
|
Do your self a favor and get some Bernard Callebaut ... it simply the best!
Belgium chocolate, made in Canada. Award winning. Very fresh and very real! Nothing ... and I mean nothing compares. I am a chocoholic (I ingest it everyday) and no longer waste time with the mainstream stuff ... if/when I need chocolate, I head to BC's store and pick up a bag of milk & white chocolate buds (I save dark for certain occasions). |
I love Godiva. Actually planned to pick up a pound today when I hit the mall.
Key Lime Truffles are my favorite. |

Godiva White or Dark Choco.

There are quite a few good chocolatiers in New York, offshoots of shops in Paris and elsewhere in Europe. Richart is just one. (My bro lives there, and gets them for me for XMas). I think Fuchon or something is another good one but I don't recall the spelling. Godiva is great, way better than Hershey's, but it's not at the level of real gourmet chocolates. I'm not sure it's worth the price diff, but I'd try some high-end ones just to see what it's like. |

I doubt the price can rationally be justified, but they do seem to worry about the cocoa bean qualities, making the chocs fresh each day and that sort of thing. I think they suggested eating them within a couple weeks or something. I don't know how much a diff it really makes, but it's good stuff. I got a sampler with wafers of chocolate made from beans grown in different parts of the world, with detailed explanations of each, but it's like wine, coffee, or beer buffs, where the stuff they're talking about is kind of meaningless to a non-obsessive palette.

You can't go wrong with German or Swiss chocolate.
Lindt - http://www.lindt.com Milka - http://www.milka.de (I doubt you can get it anywhere in the US) Toblerone - http://www.toblerone.com Ferrero - http://www.ferrero.de (Not sure where you could get this in the States either) |
Lindt balls are good. Not too expensive either.
|
nutella :thumbsup
