Lily O Brien's Chocolate Collection
Anyone had these? Maybe a bit expensive for a wee box (8 chocs at "reduced" price £1) but better than £1.49.
The Creme Brulee one is absolutely delicious, and I also like the Honeycomb Crisp one and Sticky Toffee one a lot

They're a great favourite with a friend of mine but I'm not that keen on them - I find the chocolate a bit chemically tasting. I prefer Hotel Chocolat chocs or Rococo Chocs if I'm being naughty and treating myself!!

I am a fool for Godiva, although I've been informed that they are not the best. They will do for me though.

My Boss has bought in some artisan du chocolat number 1 sea salt truffles. We were supposed to wait until after lunch, but we have sampled already and wow.

When you're gagging for a fix even a Crunchie would do , however I keep toying with the idea of purchasing something from one of these sites[LIST][*]http://www.chocolatetradingco.com/mainpage.asp?[*]http://www.kingsfinefood.co.uk/store/home.php?cat=255[*]http://www.chocolate-now.co.uk/cgi-b...epage&oref=POR[/LIST]I can recommend the Hotel Chocolat' site too , they provide top class goods and service. Fortnum & Mason have some nice chocs as well ; http://www.fortnumandmason.com/Selection-Boxes,339.aspx .

You should definitely try them - here's an offer to get their tasting box (selection of their best selling chocs) for only£6.95 - normally they are £15 or something like that? x

I agree with Lainio, they had the most awful metallic taste.
