Good if you get to the center quickly October 11, 2008
How much do you like bitter chocolate? How much do you like rich, creamy chocolate goodness? Can you stand a few seconds of bitterness to reach the sweet spot? That's the question. These were an adventure that I learned to enjoy.
 Very Disappointing January 5, 2008

From the other four reviews, I expected these truffles to be really great. My first concern was when I opened the shipping box. There was coco powder everywhere. In the shipping box, all over the wrapper, inside the wrapper, etc. just clouds of it and it coated my fingers when I picked up a truffle. They had obviously gone way overboard on the coco powder covering the truffles. It should be a light dusting, not enough to choke a horse. When I bit into the truffle, my mouth and throat were coated in dry coco powder, at first it was all I could taste, not pleasant at all.
The truffle itself was disappointing too. The outer shell of chocolate was very thick and very hard so I had to really put some effort into biting into the truffle and in chewing it up. Plus the filling was not nice, it tasted only of honey. I didn't get a flavor of chocolate at all, just hard, powder covered shell and then honey. I would not buy these again.
 Oh My God These Are GOOD! November 8, 2007
See, now there is no need for those lengthy reviews.
It is CHOCOLATE my friends.
What I'm looking for as the shopper (so I know I'll get the right reaction from my recipient)is the instant, "OH MY GOD, this is incredible!" gratification from the receiver.
And these most certainly deliver.
For the same price, these put Godiva's to shame.
Decadent and Delicious November 8, 2007
These truffles definitely hit the spot. They are just bitter enough on the shell to give the inner sweetness a little edge. Even coworkers who don't usually like truffles loved these.

After recieving this as a gift from my Amazon wishlist, I expected some incredible dark flavor. And that's exactly what I got.
Inside the hard, outer capsule of the delicate chocolate awaited a divine rush of untainted flavor. It was more than just another chocolate, and much more than just another taste.
Afterwards, it felt like I had eaten a darkly rich slice of cake, and one was more than enough to satisfy an entire dessert.
This chocolate is highly recommended for all, though a dark chocolate lover will get much more from the exquisite culmination.
