There is no accounting for taste! July 16, 2008 I don't mean to be disrespectful to the other reviewers - and we are all wired a bit differently, I know, especially the taste buds - but these truffles are substandard and quite nearly inedible.
You people are simply not chocolate connoisseurs or, simply put, you have never had "proper" truffles. How could ANYONE imagine that these are the best chocolates they have ever eaten? It staggers the mind.
Do yourselves a favor and try some real, well-made truffles - you will be surprised. These are NOT it - even though these are made in France - that was the reason I bought them! The person for whom I purchased these candies said "these things are a triumph of quantity over quality." How true, how true.
How can one champion a truffle that lists as its very first ingredient PALM OIL - followed by SUGAR and Reduced Fat Cocoa Powder and then WHEY? Palm Oil, Sugar and Whey do not, in this case, contribute to a quality product. These things taste as if a third-grader whipped them up - they are leaden, oily, and, yes, A TRIUMPH OF QUANTITY OVER QUALITY. Triste!
This is the best chocolate I've ever eaten June 2, 2008 I don't often dole out positive reviews, but I have to say - Costco carried these for a time in 2006, and they were the best chocolate I've ever had. They are a perfect bite-size, with a soft, creamy, slightly powdery texture, and a perfect balance of sweet with a tinge of salty. Usually chocolate for me is too cloying (and the really dark stuff too bitter) - they have achieved some incomprehensibly immaculate balance here of chocolate with which I could never get fed up. Get some!
Delivery cancelled, no comments March 3, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered a box of chocolate from the seller, and asked them to ship to Canada. I am not sure why the seller finally canceled the order after 2 weeks. If it is due to some restrictions from Law, I think it is understandable. But it would be better if the seller could cancel the order earlier if they find it out it is impossible to deliver that food to Canada.
Mmmm, chocolate January 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
A little less melt-instantly-in-your-mouth than I remember but still wonderful! I'm going to order next year anyway.
Excellent truffles January 7, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I know lots of chocolates try to claim it, but these truffles really do melt in your mouth. They are excellent, with a smooth rich chocolate flavor.
