What's your favourite chocolate?
The true meaning of Easter! For me it's either a Cadbury's Twirl or Wispa. I can eat more Galaxy in one sitting but Cadbury's tastes nicer.

Anton Berg is superb ... particularly their liquer marzipan chocolates .. So are most good Belgian chocolates when purchased in Belgium .. they seem to lose something in translation when exported. Lindt is a solidly sound chocloate which exports fine. Willie Harcourt-Cooze's chocolate is fantastic for using as an ingredient but almost too much to eat as it it.
But my last chocolate on earth would have to come from Charbonnel et Walker of Bond Street. Made by hand, each one a taste sensation that lasts for a long time .. it really takes time to work your way through them, which is just as well given the price .. .. Many years ago a private patient gave me a large box of them as a gift .. when I went to the shop a year later to treat myself to some more I realised she could probably have given me a small second hand car for the same money Caryl |

I'm really liking Cadbury's Creme Eggs at the moment so I was pleased that my boyfriend bought me 16 of them for Easter. When I can't buy Creme Eggs, I like Maltesers and Cadbury's Buttons. |

Green & Blacks, hands down, no contest. If I have to be specific then the Maya Gold G&B or the plain stuff wins. Less keen on the milk chocolate (less cocoa means less chocolate means not as great!)
I'm a bit of a chocoholic so I'll pretty much eat any chocolate (except the white stuff which technically isn't chocolate anyway) ... though not so keen on Galaxy - bit sickly! - And I'm more of a dark chocolate fan really. |

Green & Blacks for me as well however I have recently stumbled on this site http://www.createmychocolate.com/ and I am extremely tempted. The idea of having real gold flakes in your chocolate is an extravagance - I just wonder if it distracts from the taste of the chocoalte????

I love... chocolate! Don't care what it is, as long as I like the taste. :)
Two places I really love are "The Sweet Spot", which is local, and "Kehrs Chocolate" in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Both make quality handmade chocolates. You can also order Kehr chocolates online if you live in the USA. As for comercially made chocolate, I have to go with Lindt products and Cadbury products. :) J. xo |

My weakness comes from the great town I live in Hershey, Pa. The best candy and I get to smell it every night when my window is open. Can also smell all the peanut butter they make too.

I love chocolate especially Belgian chocolate..
But the ultimately best is Karl Fazer Milk Chocolate. It's made from fresh milk not milk powder.. |

No chocolate tastes better than someone elses chocolate.
You can both have a bar of (insert name of any chocolate product here), but the one piece they have left at the end that they can't eat and that they give to you is the best. Likewise if you have no chocolate and someone gives you one piece then that one piece is far better than the whole bar you go and buy straight afterwards. |

Love Divine and Cadburys.
Don't like Nestle, and Herschey's is basically cardboard. |
