I prefer the lower quality British chocolate. But I do eat it very rarely. I much prefer savoury nibbles.

But Hubby visited friends in London recently on his way back home here to Lanzarote - and they presented him with a big box of Thorntons chocs for me. It just about squeezed into his suitcase. Didn't last long once opened

We use the Valor chocolate powder to make our lovely thick chocolate for dipping pan de leche in and thoroughly enjoy it. Is the ready made chocolate quite thick and will it adequately coat things?

Theres a little coffee shop near where I live in the UK and I have been buying hand made Belgian Chocolates from him since around 1990. Mainly for the wife of course, but they are really really nice! (Mind you, cost £20 a box now)

You can't beat hand made belgian chocolates.

We used to live quite close to Bournville in Birmingham, and the staff there were allowed to eat as much chocolate as they wanted to free. A clever ploy, because you get sick of it pretty soon
