Thorntons Continental Chocolates
---------------------------------------
Birthday gift from my cousin could not have come in a better way than this -A gift with supreme touch of class.
The packaging is really noteworthy as it is a shining box with the brand name carved in an elegant manner. The assortment has everything you have ever dreamt for - great truffles, with selection of white, dark and extra milk and creamy chocolates.
Delighted with the overall package I started the taste test and believe me I was really spellbound with the quality.
I specially liked the apricot parfait and chocolate riche as they have luxurious mouth-watering taste.I normally like the nutty and crunchy taste with extra chocolate so vanilla flavour did not appeal to much as much but probably if you have a liking it is worth trying out.Alpini was the next one on my list and believe me this will create a true sensation of the brand .I was in love with the almond and nutty taste and was in full admiration for the brand.

Overall, I like most of the chocolates in the Continental selection apart from the rum tuffle because of personal deterrent towards rum. Most of the assortments taste rich and creamy with distinguishing flavour to relish.

I know I should not digress and bring about the nutrition value but I have to justify the review by keeping you informed.

They do contain a lot of nuts and are not suitable for people with nut allergies. I love nuts ..so no complains....The chocolates contain extra fat (around 30%),sugar and calories.You can decide if you can have a trade off with these for a delicious treat of heavenly chocolates..

An impressive and classic winner for me...if I turn a blind eye to the hefty price tag attached to it...
