Gorgeous Presentation, Fantastic Quality Dark Selection, & Rivals Popular Names! Wow!
I bought this sampler for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day because he LOVES dark chocolates and I can basically buy non-stop versions of dark and they'll disappear really fast. I really liked the delicately-wrapped "experience" of each one of these chocolates. The box isn't feminine nor masculine and looks fantastic all year as a gift-box. The top is actually magnetized and slides shut (looks great sitting out for guests or yourself!) and there is a pretty "pull ribbon" under each double-wrapped chocolate to make things even "fancier" when you're deciding which one of these to try next.The flavors are fantastic and the bite size is full...but not too much. Just enough to have 1 or 2 with your glass of red wine at night and satisfy your sweet-tooth. My boyfriend LOVES them and I'm the one who's "fussy" about chocolates. I'll only usually eat Belgian and German Chocolates and don't like the main popular brands like Godiva or Ghiradelli. So I was pleasantly surprised that despite these being a subsidiary of Hershey....the chocolates are to the standards of good Belgian and German brands that I prefer.And frankly....these being so delicately wrapped....it makes you eat less of them at once/be aware of how many you had. At only 25 calories per piece....this is perfect for someone with a "sweet tooth" who loves very dark chocolates (especially if they love red wines because the bitter chocolate goes with the wines perfectly). Whether a gift to someone else or yourself, these are impressive in both display as well as taste!!Do keep in mind that this has a lot of chocolates in it and is presented beautifully....but the box itself is NOT large. It's like a smallish cigar box and since it's $20.00, I wouldn't give this to someone who doesn't really appreciate dark chocolates or tastefully packaged gifts. Meaning the price and quality may not be evident to someone who isn't already into this sort of thing, so keep that in mind when buying this small, but amazing box of treats.

Makes a nice gift
High quality chocolate but for the amount of chocolate one gets its a little expensive so that is the reason for the 4 star.

Bloomy chocolates
I love Scharffen Berger, but I was very disappointed to see that all 62% squares had bloom on them.The 82% and the 70% were fine, though... and I enjoyed those, but not the 62%.I am very happy these were not a gift, otherwise I would had been very embarrassed. The chocolates looked old, and the bloom completely ruins their texture. I can't return because I've already eaten some of the 82s and 70s.

Bad order
The chocolate was white not dark. May have been exposed to high heat. It tasted ok at best, but not worth nearly $20.

Would make a good gift. Wish I'd gifted it instead of opening it, since I'm not a huge dark chocolate fan.

This chocolate is incredible. I like to place one or two tasting squares with our guests coffee. I buyScharffen Berger chocolate chip chunks and OMG they are incredible. We are gluten free and I found a recipe for chocolate chip cookies in the "Cooking for Isaha" cookbook and use their chocolate chip chunks, along with Earth Balance vegetable cubes and the cookies are as good as my Mother's. I put a whole bag full in the recipe. You can't go wrong with Scaffen Berger chocolate. It's elegant and incredibly delicious. It's one of the best chocolates on the market and I'm sure is part of why these chocolate chip cookies are so delicious.

Each square is a beautiful bouquet of dark chocolate, enough to satisfy individually
I love dark chocolate and these little bite sized chocolates were the perfect thing to satisfy that sweet tooth. I have had a few different varieties of dark chocolate, but Scharffen Berger has clearly set itself above the rest. There are so many different notes and flavors that truly add to the rich and earthy taste of their chocolates! I can't recommend these enough. Will definitely buy more when I run out. They last quite a while as I just have one when I get the craving and one square definitely satisfies!
