Chocolate; so yummy

I am a big fan of chocolate. I prefer it over most candies and I also drink hot chocolate instead of coffee or tea. :coffee:

The best chocolate is hands down Lindt chocolate. Too bad it is quite expensive and limitedly sold here in Finland.

My second favourite is Cadbury Dairy Milk (and Caramel). Unfortunately it isn't sold in Finland at all, so every time someone from my family visits England, I request them to bring it.

And third is of course Fazer. Especially their Maya chocolate, which contains chili and corn. Serve with water.

Lindt's chocolate =Win, i can rarely find it, or when i do find it, make it last, i always eat a whole bag of truffles in the timespan of a few hours.

I am not a big chocolate fan. I'll rephrase, I do like chocolate, but I don't really have a sweet tooth so I don't eat it very often. But I still have favourites!

Lindt is indeed nice, but yes it's expensive.

I love Kinder chocolate, that's probably my overall favourite.

My favourite 'everyday/normal' chocolate is Galaxy, though I'm also quite partial to mint Aeros and the odd Cadbury's Boost. Oh and Maltesers are yummy too.

I used to love Milka, but not so much now.

I long for the day when the Maverick bar returns to our shelves.

so.....i'm not a huge chocolate fan. :duck: if i have my choice between chocolate and vanilla ice cream, 98% of the time i'll choose vanilla.

but if my choice is chocolate candy or no candy, :chocolate: ! i do like Lindt chocolate though, it's very smooth and delicious. (why is it a seasonal thing in Finland??)

what is Fazer? never heard of that one.

Hersey's chocolate is pretty much the best for s'mores though. i can eat it straight sometimes but i don't really enjoy it that much. then again, i'm also not a huge fan of milk chocolate so maybe that explains it.

my preference:

-dark
-white
-milk

Nope, I don't like Lindt that much. Except the Lindt Excellence 99% Cacao dark chocolate that they produce, which is extremely rare and can be found, in the UK at least, at Selfridges & Co. departments (Birmingham and London respectively).

I prefer Green & Black's range of chocolates (especially Maya Gold), and Hotel Chocolat (with fondness towards their Aztec Chilli Hot Drinking Chocolate :drool: ), of which both brands I think are superior to Lindt.

Well, Lindt chocolate has only recently been sold in shops here, so it is still quite rare with only few flavours.

And Fazer is Finnish chocolate etc. manufacturer. (Like you didn't guess that.)

Dark > milk > white. I prefer more bitter chocolate than super sweet ones.

Chocolate? This is doo-doo, baby!

I'm like a pregnant woman fat dude when it comes to chocolate! I love Lindt's chocolate, except for its ridiculous pricetag! I also love the Cadbury milk chocolate! Especially when it's in the form of a Cadbury creme egg :drool:

I also prefer dark chocolate over milk, but I like white chocolate as much as I do milk.

My absolute favorites though are these gourmet chocolate fruit things (I really don't know how to describe them) that my mom occasionally buys at the store. They're made entirely out of chocolate, but they have a slight fruity taste to them. The orange ones are AMAZING! :D

Yes, poro, yes. Cadbury's is fucking awesome. You should also keep your eye out for Wispa bars because they're soooooooooooooooooooooooo good, and Aero's have been shit ever since they changed their recipe.

I like chocolate (rather than love). It's not an every day thing for me, but there's always some in my fridge. Nom nom nom.

Also, there are many, many things that the Americans do better than us Brits: TV drama; customer service; theme parks; pornography; patriotism; positive attitudes.
But not chocolate.
I have yet to eat any chocolate in America that doesn't make me want to throw up in my mouth. Sorry, USA. Must try harder. :coffee:

This is third time I am writing this post. Stupid internet connection.

My mother brought me Cadbury's "Christmas sock" from London. It contains Crunchie, Wispa, Dairy Milk Caramel, Picnic, Fudge, Dairy Milk Buttons and Flake.

I already ate Crunchie, Wispa and Fudge.
Crunchie I didn't like, it was odd.
Wispa was somewhat like Aero and Galaxy.
Fudge was like stripped-down version of Mars.

all this international chocolate talk makes me wish they were more readily available so I could try them! I'm usually satisfied with something like Hershey's with almonds, Crunch bars or Snickers (easily pleased!)

This made me super happy Crazy.

I think my absolute favorite chocolate of all time and space is Ghirardelli chocolate. I love it with a big puffy pink heart. :wuv: And now it's peppermint bark season which means this will soon be me: :fatass: (I'm loving the new emoticons that have shown up while I've been in next-to-no-internet land :)) )

I also can't wait to cross the ocean and get Kinder chocolate in the form of Kinder Eggs. Stupid USA declared the toys inside to be choking hazards so it's illegal to import them here. :hrmph:

Other than those two, I can't think of any other chocolate that I get crazy cravings for. Most of the time I'm pretty content with Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate.

Just tasted Lindt Exellence 99%. As I had expected, it isn't something I would enjoy to eat just like that. But I am exited to use it in baking.

I hate EVERYTHING Lindt ( :nono: ), except their two Excellence ranges; the 98% and 99% Dark Chocolate (I can eat them all day. ALL DAY :nod: ) :wuv:

On that note, I vastly prefer Green & Blacks chocolates, and Hotel Chocolat :cloud9:

My sister is a "Master Dipper" (lol serious title) at Godiva chocolate. The only choc I'm not a huge fan of is Dark. It's more of a cooking chocolate to me. Too bold but I'm actually anti-white chocolate. I know..."That's racist..." LOL!!!
But it's just not "Chocolate" to me.

Other than that, I'll eat almost any kind.
