Hi Guys,
Im a really fan of German Chocolate and like trying to get all the Ritter Sport Varietys across here in the UK is such a let down cos there hard to get, anyhows I thought we'd all share our passion for chocolate here it would be helpful of other members if they could locate online stores which sell chocolates perhaps cos im not having much luck
so guys are you a Cadburys or a Belgian chocoholic?
Please tell the Forum so below

Cadbury or Belgian
Honestly, Godiva really staisfies my palate . . . will try to attach choco LINKS later . . .
Posted by Miss UK
Yeah id like the links to any online shops to buy chocolates im hoping the Moderators allow this
On my recent trip to Berlin I came back with €40 worth of Ritter sport and Milka, ive got 2 boxes left but they wont last long I need a online shop that can supply me them
Posted by *Jojo*
Here's the Godiva LINK:
http://www.godiva.com/
That should be some expensive chocs Kerry considering the price you've mentioned
Posted by Miss UK
Milka bars cost €0.68 each and the Ritter Sports were €1.09 there were pretty big bars btw heres the site

Posted by Miss UK
Thortons are nice there pretty expensive tho...

Does your homeland produce it's own type of chocolate?
for get the international stuff im talking about PHILLY Choc's
Posted by *Jojo*
Yeah Kerry . . . we do produce at par chocs at my end too . . . like: Choco-Nut and Goya ! They are like Hershey's and Cadbury's of - USA !
I guess Godive is far much expensive than Mhorton's
Posted by Miss UK
lol at this rate we may to ship some over to one another
im not fussy when it comes to choccys "Who said they make you fat?"
Posted by *Jojo*
Sending some thur courier is NOt a good idea me thinks Kerry . . . the stuff will just melt along the way

Posted by Miss UK
I don't think they have that here,
I find it hard to locate german chocolates here..
they have them but not all the varietys!
Posted by arien617
I love all chocolate, apart from fruit and nut stuff.
Cadburys Turkish delight choc is really nice and Lindt is the best!!!
Posted by JK

Ferreos are good. BUt Cote D Or the red ones are the best ever!!
Posted by Miss UK

Posted by Miss UK
Birmingham, West Brom
Posted by masseur
my GPS says that B'ham is only 1 hour 44 mins away
so, you're probably closer to Cadbury's than I am! so I need to offer something special!
so... have you ever tried choccie coated Macadamias? brought some back from oz last week and I'm open to offers!
you have probably never tried anything like these so if you are truly a chocoholic then... whats it worth!?
Posted by fatreg
I detect an extra marital offer here big M?
now, i know you have power round here but please don't let it get to your head!
Posted by Miss UK
Masseur im not that keen on Cadburys chocolates altho I will eat it
I do prefer the Foreign stuff from Germany, Belguim etc...
Never tried Aussie choc's but your tempting me now
Ps, Yep Cadburys is infact not that far from me it's just about a few several buses, there in Bourneville.. never really been in the place though, they say you can eat as much as you want in there when you visit but I dunno if thats true or not

er, @mr fatreg... excuuuuuuuse me, but the thought never crossed my mind.
if miss uk would like to PM me her address I'll be more than happy to post a box of these lovely Aussie macadamia choccies to her address.
there are 20 pieces in each box and I always bring 5 boxes back with me. 2 are for work and they last about 2 hours on a good day, 1 box goes to my brother, his wife and 2 kids and the other 2 boxes go to friends but I'll not be seeing those until after my next trip in 4 weeks so these are going spare! they're scrummy btw!
Posted by Miss UK
How much these gonna cost me?
Posted by fatreg
bugger..
just my mind working overtime then.
Miss C knows all about that! hehe!
ahh well I won't take this anymore off topic..
I love dairy milk tasters but no where sells them anymore

Thanks alot Dahl
Posted by masseur
no worries mate
Posted by haynesycop
Hahaha! Mass you seem chirpy today? Are macademia nutty, as in macedamia nuts?
Cannot beat a yorkie bar, or a boost, or a drifter, or a caramac, i'll shut up now hehehehe.
Posted by Miss UK
Laura yeah they have the nuts in them
Thanks once again Masseur
Posted by haynesycop
Not been a fan of anything nutty, glad you like them though. very thoughtful of him.
Posted by masseur
Yorkies! I used to eat loads of them. I even got my mum to bring me a whole retail box to Australia one time... then I got sick of them and I don't think I have had one since!
these choccie macadamias are a whole macadamia nut in the middle with a thick layer of shocolate around the outside and for me come a very close second to Toblerone, which is unbeatable in milk chocolate or white. I don't like dark choc.
all sing now...
Toblerone, out on its own
Made with triangular almonds from triangular trees
And triangular honey from triangular bees
So, oh Mr Confectioner please
Give me Toblerone

Hahahahaha! Yorkies are yummy although i'm not fond of the sexist comments used to advertising them.
Don't like nuts so won't eat anything with them in or dark chocolate, yuk! Do love caramacs though there lovely can't get them in some places though.
What other Aussie chocolate can you recommend, non nutty?
