Best (factory produced) chocolate?

[Kyriakos]

Although factory produced chocolate/other candies are usually inferior to pastry shop hand-made ones, my favorite of the former would be:

Not just for the nugat. The actual chocolate is very tasty there

Am I the only person who hates toblerone?

Is Thorntons factory made?

Cadbury is good for mass-market chocolate.

Don't hate it , but there are better chocolates out there. It's especially this crunchy biscuit-like things in the middle I don't like.

 

[bhavv]

Yes I hate crunchy stuff inside chocolate.

Cadbury is good for mass-market chocolate.

Egh...Cadburys is nasty stuff. And I'm English as well, so I'm supposed to like it. For cheap chocolate, Galaxy is much better.

 

[bhavv]

Cadburys tastes of nothing. Galaxy tastes of pure sugar. Thorntons is better.

Not anymore. Cadbury's chocolate is made in Poland.

I ate myself sick with a bar of Toblerone after a week of sleeping four hours a night and now I have to resist the urge to puke by just looking at one.

Is it an investment in Eastern Poland?

Not anymore. Cadbury's chocolate is made in Poland.

What has where it's made got to do with anything? English people are supposed to like Cadburys.

That's not what I heard.

Lindt Lindor and Kinder Bueno are two favorites of mine.

I used to think Kinder were German, but its an Italian one and part of Ferrero.

 

[Windsor]

I'm norwegian so

 

[bhavv]

I wish I could move to Scandinavia or Scotland.

 

[Kyriakos]

Never liked Kinder Bueno (iirc it even made me sick once). Kinder Delice is very good, though

 

[Lillefix]

Kinder bueno is just too sweet. Normal Kinder chocolate is fantastic.

The Best Chocolate Bar

Thread over.

You're welcome.

Put me down for some Kinder Uberraschung, sometimes I buy it for the chocolate alone.

I also really like Ritter Sport Squres:

What else is good.. I dunno, a lot of chocolates here in North America are just too damn sweet. I've heard that in the UK Cadbury and Hershey's tastes 18187616x better for example, due to the better ingredients used.

Lindt/Lindor are good though.

IIRC the minimum requirement in the UK for a food to be legally described as chocolate is 20% cocoa solids. In the US it's 10%. So yeah, chocolate (at least the cheap stuff) tends to be much better in the UK. Oddly enough, there's been a bit of a controversy in the last few days over Cadbury's in the US - Hersheys, who hold the rights to the name in America, have gotten the government to ban people from importing the "English" version of it into the country. The reason people want to import it is the fact that the Hersheys' "American" version has such low cocoa content that even fans of Cadburys think it tastes like crap.
