I ordered this product about thw and a half weeks before I needed it for my childrens very first birthday party, I payed to have rush delivery and it never came. It took me like another week to get a refund, and they did not refund the rush delivery money, which was like $15!... I would never order from them again, I am soo upset, because by the time it was actually the day of my childrens birthday we were totally broke and we didnt even have any gold eating coins at their PIRATE party, It totally stinks.Buy Belgian Milk Chocolate Coins!

Ok this is going to be hard for me to say in public - I am a chocoholic! There I said it. I can't keep it to myself anymore! It is my one vice in life. Unfortunately, my body was telling me I shouldn't eat any more chocolate! So then my doc tells me to cut back on sugar...tragedy! But then in my darkest moment I found hope. Now, a couple of years later I am enjoying my chocolate treats without fear. Bountiful Harvest have hit the nail square on the head with their chocs. Without doubt the best variety and flavors I have found in sugar free candy. I had to laugh when I saw poor Gadgetgal's comments below. For those of you who havent tried these let me just tell you that to compare these chocolates to ashers or bartons is just plain wrong. It's like test driving a new mercedes and then saying you prefer to stick with your trusty old Pinto! Seriously, we're talking premium chocolate here (oh and yes they are the regular size chocolates usually come by the way), heck I don't even think ashers uses real chocolate? I may be wrong but it doesnt taste like it to me.One thing is for sure ashers do use Maltitol but also like 100 other chemical things and boy did they give me the 'tummy upset' the one time i tried them! I'm glad you found your thing gadgetgal. Maybe I'm just spoiled....no 'tummy upset' with my mercedes!
Ok got a little sidetracked. Bottom line...I recommend you give these chocolates a try if you are on a sugar restriction. They don't taste like your typical sugar free candy. They taste just like good bold chocolate should. There is no waxy residue left on your tongue after eating them just a mouthwatering satisfaction. Another great thing about these chocolates is that I dont particularly care for white chocolate so I e-mail them when ordering and ask for no white choc so they kindly replace them with milk & dark. IMHO the best I have found yet!Buy 25pc Sugar Free Handmade Artisan Belgian Chocolates!

I agree with the first reviewer, almost completely. While I don't loathe Godiva as they seem to, it seems to me many luxury brands, including Godiva, are seen as such due more to clever marketing than the actual quality of the product. A lot of the unspoken opinion seems to be, if it's exspensive, it must be good. Granted, Neuhaus chocolates are exspensive to, like Godiva, but they surpass them in taste and creativity by a country mile.
Unlike Godiva, there's not one in practically every mall in America. Which raises a question: if Godiva is such a luxury item, why are they in so many mid-market malls?

If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time. ~Marcel Proust
Imagine you are drinking coffee or a chai tea and your mouth is warm from the heat of your beverage. You then take the smallest bite of an Orange Napolitain and suddenly your mouth is filled with the exotic flavor of melting dark chocolate busting with the flavor of orange. It is similar to the flavor of a candied orange peel so you have the flavor of orange zest mysteriously escaping from what could only be described as the silkiest dark chocolate in the world.
Definitely an Indulgence that reveals culinary genius! Each piece is individually wrapped in a beautiful orange wrapping displaying the shield of the Greek warrior Leonidas, King of Sparta. The chocolates are actually named after the founder Leonidas Kestekidis who immigrated to the United States and then moved to Belgium.
I first tasted Leonidas chocolates while in Brussels, Belgium. Since then, I have wondered about where I could purchase these delicious chocolates without having to fly to Belgium. I must say that once you taste a Leonidas praline filled chocolate, you will remember the taste for life! Since reviewing at Amazon, I discovered chocolates in gold boxes that resembled the boxes I remembered from Belgium. Enlightenment!
Leonidas now has over 1700 stores and sales locations worldwide and they offer over 80 varieties of fresh chocolates. The chocolates are air freighted weekly from Brussels so you will always find the quality to be superior. My chocolates arrived fast and were as fresh as if I had purchased them in Belgium. They were carefully packaged in the famous gold boxes with signature wrapping and a ribbon. The boxes were then placed in protective Styrofoam containers to protect the chocolates during shipping. The expedited shipping is recommended from May to early September.
If you wish to try all the Napolitains, I'd suggest the 1 pound sampler Ballotin with six varieties. You may also want to look for the new Palet d'Or. A deeply delicious and strong bitter chocolate filled with ganache. The center is made with butter, cream and chocolate and the outer coating is a masterpiece with gold decorations. If you prefer milk chocolates, look for the Milk Chocolate Assortment. They also have a dark, white and milk chocolate assortment. The chocolates can also be ordered in smaller party favor boxes and they will definitely impress your guests.
If you have been dreaming of the most delicious orange flavored chocolates in the world, you have to try these chocolates. You can nibble on them while drinking hot chocolate, chai tea or coffee. If you fall in love with the orange flavor, wait until you taste the cinnamon Napolitains.

I held on to my Amazon gift certificate (in recognition of my volunteer efforts) for just the right moment when I could decide what to choose. Well -- the financial and political climate; challenging projects; illness in the family; and other stuff converged and it was time for a bit of luxury and comfort. This chocolate filled the bill. I allowed myself no more than two pieces a day -- and reserved my moments in the day when I could focus on the experience -- and not have to share. There was a lot to appreciate: the pretty box with beautifully packed chocolates, the design of each piece -- then the first bite to apprecaite the texture of the chocolates -- white, dark, and milk. And, the fillings of each. I will not be eating any Haloween candy this year -- it just cannot compare. Buy Leonidas Belgian Chocolates: 1.50 lb General Chocolate Assortment!

Chocolate makes otherwise normal people melt into strange states of ecstasy. ~John West
To taste 72% Pure Origin Sao Tome is to enter chocolate connoisseur heaven where chocolate squares become poetry. The delicate snap of the chocolate when you take the first bite, the smooth melting of delicious fine chocolate as you only feel the smoothest of chocolate melting on your tongue in a buttery bliss. These are not bitter or overly sour, as you would expect from a dark chocolate.
The taste is more refined and the chocolate is made from the premium cocoa beans found on the island of Sao Tome. This distinctive flavor is a rare bliss for chocolate connoisseurs who wish to taste a pure chocolate without any flavorings or fillers. This is just pure, pure chocolate made with 72 % cocoa, sugar, cocoa butter and soya lecithin.
I prefer to savor each piece of chocolate with a cup of tea or coffee. The warmth of the beverage creates an entirely different experience than if you were to simply taste a square of chocolate on its own. Once your mouth is warmed, take a small bite of the chocolate square and enter Chocolate Oblivion where each nuance becomes a journey into pleasure.
The world stops for minutes at a time as you savor a mingling of the silkiest chocolate you have ever tasted. If there is a better chocolate, I haven't tasted it. Such perfection! These are chocolates you must eat slowly, letting them melt in your mouth as the superior richness fills your mouth with chocolate bliss.
You can also melt 8 squares into 11 ounces of milk to make hot chocolate or you can take pleasure in the superior flavor of one piece of chocolate as a delectable luxury.
The chocolates are air freighted weekly from Brussels so you will always find the quality to be superior. My chocolates arrived fast and were as fresh as if I had purchased them in Belgium. They were carefully packaged in the famous gold ballotin with signature wrapping and a ribbon. The boxes were then placed in protective Styrofoam containers to protect the chocolates during shipping.
The Orange and Cinnamon varieties contain natural cinnamon and orange flavorings. The Cinnamon Napolitains or squares have a unique cinnamon flavor that is especially delicious. If you wish to try all the Napolitains, I'd suggest the 1 pound sampler Ballotin with six varieties.
While I am in love with the quality of Leonidas chocolates, the customer service and shipping speed is equally impressive. The expedited shipping is recommended from May to early September.
Leonidas chocolates are a thoughtful gift for friends or you may just want to order them for your own chocolate pleasure. I can guarantee that once you taste these chocolates, you will never be fully satisfied by less than the best. When you long for the purity of chocolate in its most refined state, then these are the chocolates to order!

After searching high and low I finally found someone that I could order The most delicious Belgain Chocolates...

I first fell in love with the Leonidas chocolates while in Belgium and now I finally found them online. If I was in New York, you would probably find me at the Manon Café in the winter sipping hot chocolates. In the summer, I'd be at the Leonidas' store buying gourmet chocolates. After savoring chocolates in Europe, Africa and America - these are the best chocolates I have ever tasted.
The crunchy chocolate squares were a real surprise and I love how delicate the crunch is when encased in a burst of delicious chocolate.
You may also enjoy the Mint chocolates. They are delicious after dinner or anytime you want to wake up your taste buds. The mint flavor bursts from these chocolates as if it was encased in little sugar crystals. It is quite perfect and refreshing.
I also love the Cinnamon and Orange. If you have been dreaming of the most delicious orange flavored chocolates in the world, you have to try the Orange Napolitains. I love both equally, although the cinnamon flavor has me completely seduced.
I prefer to savor each piece of chocolate with a cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate. The warmth of the beverage creates an entirely different experience than if you were to simply taste a square of chocolate on its own.

I love these Almond & Hazelnut Pralines! Words just cannot describe how deliciously rich and decadent they are. They absolutely melt in your mouth. Not exactly a health food, but luckily they are filling so most people cannot have more than a few in one sitting. I've had just about every European brand of chocolate and these are by far the best! (The American brands just cannot compare to these, so be warned. Once you have the Leonidas, you will never want Hershey's or Nestle's again.) They are packaged carefully (one reviewer said excessively) but I love the beautiful packaging and the ribbon. I once ordered Belgian chocolates from another company and they arrived with many of the chocolates melted and squished. So, in my opinion these are well worth the money. Not something to have every day of course, but maybe as a gift for that Special Someone or on special occasions. I HIGHLY recommend!Buy Leonidas Belgian Chocolates: 1 lb Gianduja -- Almond & Hazelnut Praliné!
