Review: great price and good quality - greatt deal, tastes a little too sweet but just add some dark chocolate in and it will balance out
Review: Fancy and nice when on offer - My go-to bar for baking. Stock up when opportunity strikes because it holds well for melting, creating truffles, in cookies and for brownies too. An all-purpose tasty bar that is sometimes sadly out of stock. Purchase ahead. The expiry is fairly generous and the bar gets used in no time. Cuts brilliantly too, so don't let the giant sized square scare you.

## Features

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fancy and nice when on offer
*by A***I on 14 March 2025*

My go-to bar for baking. Stock up when opportunity strikes because it holds well for melting, creating truffles, in cookies and for brownies too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good and Affordable
*by S***8 on 7 March 2025*

I recently purchased this dark chocolate, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! It's not only delicious but also very affordable compared to other brands. I love using it to fill with a mix of peanut butter—it's a perfect combination. As someone who is lactose and gluten intolerant, I appreciate that this chocolate works well for my dietary needs. I will definitely be buying it again!
