Yummy!

My mouth is watering now!!!

Now, I am franticly looking for some chocolate to eat. Thanks OnFlame.

Now I am drooling. It’s unfair…Aaaarrrgghh

All the chocolates listed here seem to be overpriced( especially the american ones). You’ll see what I mean after having tasted chocolates by Patrick Roger in Paris, or Chaudin, in Paris. My all time favs are Chocolate with Basil, Chocolate with Chili, chocolate with irish whiskey

I wonder if they used child slave labor to farm such fine, expensive chocolate?

Oh the illusion of luxury that this culture bestows on us…

Don’t buy NOKA, you’re being conned out of your money.

As a long time Godiva eater, I have to say that it is not overpriced. At least I never felt like I was being taken when I purchased it. It was always worth every penny.

You people need to come taste Charles Chocolate from the Southern Caribbean

What???? $2,600 for candy?? That is ridiculous. The wrappers must be pure gold.

All I can say is what is rong with this pic? Children out there hungry and there are pepole paying that much for candy..I really wonder about this world of ours..

Tempted to eat them…….

Hey everybody, thanks for all the awesome comments! Enjoy!

Like most people, I would love to dig in to one of these delights. I think I would like to try the CHOCOPOLOGIE.

Beautiful and tasty article on chocolates.

Not eating chocolate won’t help starving children. If you’ll notice, almost nobody actually buys these chocolates by the pound. It’s quite unlikely somebody would spend that much on chocolate in less than maybe an entire lifetime unless they are extremely rich. Spending ten dollars on chocolate here and there is as evil and selfish as going to the spa now and then – i.e. not very.

Dianalynn makes a great point, except that well, she’s on the internet, probably with her own computer (with DSL) surfing the net and posting a “make you feel guilty” comment. Yeah, surfing the net… there’s a way to help kids!

In any case, for people making 6 or 7 figures, this stuff is the equivalent of a Friday night dinner. Think Bill Gates balks at $2,600/lb chocolate? Doubt it. He gets that on interest maybe every hour. More than anything, these chocolates are status items except for those few conniseurs who can double-blind tell the difference between a great chocolate and a spectacular one. Fact is, take the wrappers off, make the chocolate look the same and most people couldn’t tell which chocolate is better (even if they can tell there is a difference). Okay, rant off. Time to celebrate with some hershey’s kisses followed by white zinfandel and kraft cheddar cheese.

U people clearly never tasted pierre marcolini`s chocolate. Expensive, but who cares if it gives u such pleasures

I love chocolate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

barf..godiva? read the ingredients list, people..

Oh yes, Pierre Marcolini is deathly good chocolate. I’ve had Richart a few times, but in the more reasonable $32 option. Really excellent fine texture, unlike anything I’ve ever had before. It’s a kind of chocolate that requires a lot of thought.

One name you left off the list is Hershey’s, who makes some outstanding chocolate. If you would like to try it, you can easily find it in most groceries and convenience stores. I usually buy mine from the Piggly-Wiggly here in Bob White, WV. Their packaging is distinctive and easily recognizable, and I think they have received high marks from several critics.

mmmmmm… I think I’ll go get a two dollar dark chocolate bar from the convenience store around the corner now:)

This article is “simply delectable”!

Love the article – where did you get the photos from?

Hi everybody,

Thanks a ton for all the wondeful support you’ve been providing. There have been many unecessary comments on the article, and I’ve removed them. To Geronimo, I got the pics from searching on google images.

Thanks again for the awesome support,
Onflame

Ok, I dont feel so bad buying the local stuff here that is $53 a pound!! Really it is a treat!

All I know that dreams are made of chocolates. Without chocolate I’ll be sad.

Thanks everybody. This article received 21,167 views for the month of September.

Chocolate is chocolate. I defy you to tell the difference in a blind test between a 50 cent Hershey bar and a $2,600 chunk of chocolate. Anyone who thinks chocolate is worth more than a couple bucks probably also believes that buying name brand detergent or mouthwash is better, even though the ingredients (which are RIGHT THERE ON THE LABEL) are ***EXACTLY*** the same.

…I still prefer a good old bar of Cadbury’s
Cheers for a great article!

Yummy, even though I’d rather have a godd ol’ bar of Hershey’s any day Geordie Janner

But where is the Crunchy Frog….?

Utterly ridiculous, shameful and embarrassing.

well 2 canadian accounts and a shop in Plano texas, really, what more do you need to know?

Its CHOC..KING !!!!

YUMMY!!!

*sigh* How I wish I had a rich boyfriend… I love expensive chocolates and to Dany, these aren’t overpriced. The only one that is is the one for $2,600lb. I don’t think any chocolate, no matter how heavenly, should be over $1,500lb. I don’t know how people can eat Hershy or Mars, it taste like dog crap and it makes me puke if I eat more than a piece.

I never knew chocolate could be that expensive, great article.

L love chocolate.

holy crap ppl its chocolate!! its gonna end up in the seqer anyways!!

Hi cecilia, It is fully true what you say… COCOA GOURMET Chocolate is the Number 1. Not only in prices but the quality and service are the best.

You both correct, and on my side I have order online on swisscocoagourmet.com a box of the DIAMOND CHOCOLATE COLLECTION and when I have receive it, I was really astonished! The words can not describe the fabulous impression when you open this precious wooden box which is seal with wax. well guys if you don’t know Cocoa Gourmet, pay them a visit on their gorgeous website, I propmise you you will not be disappointed. Best choco regards.

chocolates~~good look~~

拉拉拉~不过好贵哦……

I think “Extra Dark Limited Stock Blended Cacao Truffles” is the Best!!!

very expensive..

i dont understand which people would spend this money on chocolate, its stupid, even if i was really rich i wouldnt be such a jackass and spend my money on chocolate!!

Thanks for exposing this. Western civilization is clearly in decline.

Hi..
Your article is really good and interesting.
I am very pleased if you read my article about beaches..

Heaven on the Earth : Five fantastic beaches

i got the richart chocolate when i was in lyon this past september.
it was awesome!

its so very expensive.i cannot buy that chocolate anyway i have eaten that chocolate in past years!

only the rich can afford to eat those.. hersheys perfect for me |:)

I love Richart.

OH! I would love to try the CHOCOPOLOGIE! I used to be a Hershey kind of girl until I gave up milk and had to discover the true greatness of dark chocolate. Now, the typical cash register chocolate bar tastes like anything BUT chocolate! It definitely takes a bigger chunk out of my wallet – but instead of scarfing down a whole bar I am more than content to break off a piece and savor it with my cafe.
I see those who are disgusted with how people spend their money – and I can understand why they would feel that way, but we all have different priorities. Some spend it on shoes, some on cars, some on vacations, spa, and well – some don’t have the luxury of spending anything. And I’m guessing (unless you’re Mother Teresa) none of us have the room to judge. We all have our ‘guilty’ pleasures, that we really shouldn’t feel guilty for.

iM sOoooO in lOve with the gOld cOllectiOn.^^* gOdiva for life.(:

Too bad these chocolates can not help you lose weight like Xocai chocolate has helped me! Find out the difference between good and bad chocolate. Chocolate lovers know that chocolate isn’t a treat its a super functional food high in antioxidants that needs to be taken daily. Try Xocai chocolate-its healthy and delicious! http://www.cocoaraven.com

Wow I want to eat

all i can say is yummy….i would like to try all the expensive chocolate because i love chocolate very much……

I’ll just take a Milky Way, thanks.

I have had the Delafee it was so good i had to by more and now i have at least 2 boxes of it in my freezer.
Delicious!

hi! just wanted to share my find with other chocolate lovers. I was just in Montreal at the Queen Elizabeth hotel and got a super pillow gift. They were two exquisite chocolates from Gendron Confiseur Chocolatier. Wow! what an experience. You can taste the high quality in every little morcel. Was told they were not for sale in boutiques. Called them and got the infos I needed to get some more. The pralins and ganaches are all hand made from scatch with the finest ingredients available. Every flavor is a unique creation (Mimosa, tonka and salty caramel are my favorites). And the prices are reasonnable too!

i love chocolate!!!!
but a bit to expensive!

WOW…so yummy

哇！看着好好吃的样子，不过介绍除了那几个简单的单词外，一概不知，呵呵！不过，喜欢巧克力的人真的好多啊！

my school got a party before the holiday i wan to look the expensive choco can or not?

any cookies???????

Godiva chocolate is crap.. only idiots who walk around malls of America think its high end stuff.. rather just over priced super sweet chocolate .. most American chocolates are wayyy wayyYy too sweet. If you are willing to pay premium price then buy expensive stuff like Nehaus, Pierre Marcolini,or Richart – you will cream in your pants- your tongue will never forgive you if you eat that Godiva crap again afterwards.

a bit is
also not affordable
for me………………..
but i want it…………….
it is ummmmmmaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh………….

IT FEELS GREAT WHEN WE EAT IT . I HAVE TASETED ALL THE FOUR OF IT . AND TRUST ME RICHART AND GODIVA ARE
YUMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

godiva lookss VERYVERYVERY yummy. but with that price? woah. you must feel like in heaven eating that.haha

how disgustingly inhumane. you should think about more important things than chocolate!

how disgustingly inhumane. you should think about more important things than chocolate!

Whaat? I can’ t believe it!…Why did they put Godiva in this rating.. for me the best luxurious chocolate is Pierre Marcolini!

Godiva is cheaper and not good at all, it’s sugar, no fine flavors, no elegance, no creativity..it’s industrial and not belgian anymore. I heard it was turkish! and their goal is to sell massive

Luxury is about quality!! Pierre Marcolini has a reason to be more expensive; he works the cocoabean and create an intense chocolate he mix with others flavors, even the yield of the chocolate is a mix of two cocoabean he selected within some rare cocoa productions!

Godiva buy cream and chocolate yield to a big industry which name is Callebaut.

I have found this video on Youtube; you really should have a glance at it!
