Different brands of chocolate.

What's your favorite?

Lindt - That smooth and soft texture that melts in your mouth as soon as you pop it in is a memory you want to cherish again and again. This Swiss chocolate ranks No. 1 in the world which proves that it is the best chocolate. Lindt was founded in 1845 and since then has developed as the best chocolate.


Ferrero Rocher - If you’re a lover of all things crunchy, especially when it comes to chocolates, then Ferrero Rocher is the right option for you. It was developed in and has catapulted to occupy the 2nd place now. With flavors of milk and cream and a roasted hazelnut in its center, this chocolate is a true delight. The golden wrapper is an added bonus to get one of those boxes home, isn’t it?


Guylian - Guylian has entered the chocolate world recently but has earned itself a good place in the chocolate world due to its fine quality of chocolates. There are a variety of options that you can choose from, like milk chocolate with smooth caramel, dark chocolate with raspberry, solid white chocolate, solid milk chocolate, milk

chocolate with almonds, and solid dark chocolate. If you prefer sweeter chocolates, then go pick out one box full of Guylian chocolates.


Maxinm’s - Though Maxinm’s is a bit pricey, it is worth every penny. It ranges from milk chocolates to hazelnut milk chocolates and black chocolates. Maxinm’s exudes style and elegance just like its name which is derived from French mythology.


Hershey’s - The moment you think of the brand Hershey’s, the first thing that pops into your mind is the world famous Hershey’s Kisses. The cone shaped tiny chocolates are a true chocoholic’s delight and you never get content with eating just one, do you? Hershey’s is also known for Symphony which is on a softer and much more creamier side than other Hershey’s chocolates.
