For the wife and I, it's See's Chocolates (their dark chocolate selections that is...) SEE'S CHOCOLATE YUM YUMWhen we were in Ireland and NI, I fell in love with Kinder Bars. So light and crispy. Perfect texture. The maker of the Kinder Bar is Ferrero. I would think that would indeed be a delicious chocolate bar...

I have never been a connoisseur of anything in my life, and if it has a good texture, and tastes good, then a Hershey bar will suffice.

I always find a chocolatier wherever we live and patronize them for holiday chocolates (easter, valentines, christmas, etc.).
(And I do the same with butchers and coffee roasters)
As for mass-produced chocolate, those Guylian Belgian Seashells are my favorite, but that is more like a hazelnut truffle.

American companies make hands down the worst chocolate in the world. lol They generally have a lower percentage of chocolate and are waxy compared to British and European chocolate.

That would be too much for me. I'm not a fan of the dark side of chocolate.

The first time trying this chocolate, I walked away from everything else and will not touch it. That alone, is saying something about how good it is.

Most Americans this is their candy, I know military men have shared this with kids all over the world.

I like any dark chocolate that has a 70% or higher cocoa butter content. That kind of chocolate makes really good hot cocoa, or I can melt it and use it in desserts...if there's any left.

Ghirardelli is the best as far as I'm concerned. You can't beat their dark chocolates.

Anything from Lindt or Godiva. But really I love any quality European chocolate or candy in general. The Italians and Brits also make some amazing confections. I do enjoy a Nestle Milky Bar or a Cadbury Flake or a Crunchie.

I like these. They have them at Aldi, made in Germany. Aldi seems to have the best prices on the best chocolate.

I enjoy all chocolate. Can't say I ever had any that I didn't like. My favorites are milk chocolate and dark chocolate.
