Tia Maria Chocolates ??

cherydee

Does anyone know if you can buy Tia Maria chocolates....I am sure I used to see them years ago in shops around Christmas time ....but have not seen them in a long while. Wanting them for a gift for someone but did not want to buy a bottle of Tia Maria.

Hi cherydee - it might be worth trying local independant sweet shop/tobacconists or even Poundland/99p stores - they have all sorts this time of year! On the other hand, have you seen this

Thanks for your help ....and thanks for the link booter, but one of the reviews state it is like a small pot of Nutella Spread...which is not really what I'm looking for.

Didn't the "Famous Names" chocolates have Tia Maria ones in them (amongst others like Cointreau and Famous Grouse)? Can't say I've ever seen a box of only Tia Maria though!

I am sure they used to be made by Elizabeth Shaw - maybe if you googled the manufacturer, you may just find something close to what you are looking for.

Good luck in your search!!


EDIT: doesn't look like they do them after all!

you'd be in luck if you were looking for Vodka or Harveys Bristol Cream chocolates!

I'd check out the pound shops - they always seem to do liquere chocolates - hopefully a TM one too.
