  • Anyone else gone for the Van Lys chocolates? 200g boxes of Belgian chocolates, £1.29.

    They are very plainly presented - just a white box base with cellophane over the top - but these are actually great value for good quality chocolates - The contents are similar to these, illustrated on the Van Lys website:

    Very nice, most of the centers have a very creamy taste but if you are planning on eatging some on your way home, take some scissors with you. You'll need them to get in the packet, I never come across cellophane that tough before.
