Co op chocolate coins.

I think most people will have consumed a few chocolate coins in their lives. Chocolate coins are made and sold by many companies. They are ideal to add as chocolate stocking filler or use as a cake decoration.

I gave my children at school some chocolate coins this year I bought them in the Co-op.
The chocolate coins were in a yellow/gold net bag and contained 12 coins all the same size. Sorry I forgot the price but I remember they were well under a pound a bag. Can not find price info on line.
.
These chocolate coins were wrapped individually in a gold foil wrapper; the gold coins were German coins. Deuchemarks with the German eagle imprinted on the foil, I think these are like the commemorative coins that denote the last Deutschmarks in 2001. Now I believe all real coins are Euros.

Now to the taste.

Often I find the chocolate in coins and decoration inferior tasting nasty.
While this chocolate coins not the best tasting Belgium or Cadbury chocolate it is ok. It's a MILK chocolate a bit like a cooking chocolate. The taste is not so nice that I want 2 though (which is good as I am sure they are calorific)
So not bad but not really a winner on taste to me, Still the kids wont be so discerning.


I hope the Tesco ones I bought for the family tasted better
