I compare them to McDonalds. Not bad once in a while but there are muuuuuch better ones on the market
it’s (very) decent Belgian chocolate for being factory made..
For more artisanal Belgian Chocolate, you should try something else..
Er is beter maar tis zeker nie verkeerd. Mooi ook. Altijd vechten voor die met de
Diepe kleuren.
Definitely a classic but also quite industrial. If you are willing to pay the price for something more authentic go to a small Chocolatier. It will be more expensive but better and handmade. You can find one in every bigger city in Belgium.
Average.
I love them! I used to eat a lot of these at Christmas parties when it’s time for coffee.
Fucking amazing
not great, not terrible
4/10
Chocolate maker here : I wouldn’t call that “chocolate”. But I think a lot of people like those sweet things.
There is like 1 procent cacao 😂
It’s not real chocolate, stay away.
It’s like the high end of the garbage tier.
Can someone recommend some real Belgian chocolate?
Sugar in the shape of a seashell.
it’s ok. good for serving when people are over. they’re tasty and if you have 1 you’re gonna want more. They’re also fairly standard and there is better tasting chocolate from belgium both artisanal as factory made
Not that great once you’ve tasted real chocolate.
Hate them. Way too sweet and they actually upset my stomach
Yes
They’re nice to gift to relatives you don’t like.
If you are ever near Sint Niklaas (Saint Nicolas) you can see the factory, idk from the inside but you can see it from the outside.
Meh, seems fancy to foreigners, but much better chocolate out there
Edible if stored in the fridge. But really too much of a butter-sugar-paper like taste. I sometimes buy them because they are cheap enough and my kids are happy with that butter-sugar-paper combo.
Nostalgia, but for that price I’d go for Leonidas instead. Better quality and more taste variety.
But even Leonidas is mostly bottom tier of good pralines
They don’t taste like sea food at all.
Grandmother’s chocolate
Pretty garbage tbh. We’ve a friend who often busts these out (buys in bulk, lives in another country) and we have to smile and nod politely when he gushes over them.
Een heerlijk dikmakertje
They remind me of my grandmother, which is always nice. Without the emotional connection: not great.
Sucks. Better of buying leonidas or just regular cote d’or chocolat.
Too much sugar, they are trying to look fancy but is not
🤮
When I came to Belgium for my master study the first ‘friend’ I got gave me this as a birthday gift. I was green and I thought “oh okay, belgian chocolate tastes like regular supermarket chocolate, nothing special”
That was before I bought something from Leonidas and later, my closest belgian friend gave me a box of Neuhaus 😛
I am a swede that lives in belgium. I grew up with this horrible chocolate do to my swedish grandma loving yo have this chocolate to give to us children. It doesnt taste so much chocolate as it taste sweet. Belgium has otherway beter chocolate as I found out when I moved here, I just though I disliked belgian chocolate.
Makes foreigners happy when offered as a gift.
Doesn’t make it to our after-dinner table.
My working theory is that everyone who receives a box as a gift, hangs on to them to pass them on to someone they don’t like very much.
