RE: My Very Last Toblerone
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I used to like Toblerone chocolate as a kid, Ritter and Ferro Rocher were the other two favorites during my younger days. I wouldn't call any of these brands high quality chocolate - they are more like a very tasty candy for me :)
Lindt does qualify as a decent mid-tier supermarket brand on par with a very similar American brand of chocolate Ghirardelli. In Seattle even in the most basic supermarkets we have a huge variety of higher end organic bean to bar chocolates such as the local manufacturer Maeve: https://maevechocolate.com/
And also Seattle based Theo Chocolate: https://theochocolate.com
There are many more higher end chocolate brands that you can find in Seattle area supermarkets, but if you really want a treat Fran's Chocolates are hard to beat: https://frans.com
Kraft and Hershey might be well known American brands, but they produce stuff that is not even remotely chocolate :)
Yes the private companies have higher end chocolate and in South Africa they are very few between. In the US and Europe you have the population to sustain these smaller companies. When we travel I do look out for them as a treat. I will have a look at the links thank you.
