coffee chocolates ??

johnswife

I am looking for a box of coffee flavoured chocolates, my mum wants to buy my sister some for Christmas and I have wasted so much time trawling the shops I wondered if anyone has seen any. I can't even find coffee matchsticks and I know they used to sell them.

Thanks.

Thorntons do a nice cappicino chocolate bar. My local thorntons are offering 4 choc bars for £2

Poundland have cappuccino cup chocolates, but I haven't tried them. Last year they has cappuccino truffles, like the Belgian chocolate truffles they do now but coffee flaovoured, and they were gorgeous but I haven't seen them this year.
Farmfoods have bags of La Suissa coffee flavour chocolates, though bags don't make such neat parcels as boxes.
Thorntons cappuccino bars are heavenly.

Although I do like Thorntons cappuccino chocolates I much prefer their coffee creams... traditional coffee cream discs (about the circumfernece of a 2p coin but much thicker) covered in milk chocolate.

I've searched Thortons website but can't find any reference to them. They definitely had them in store recently... they are displayed with other similar bags eg ginger chocolates and come in exactly the same sort of bags as these chocolate brazil nuts:

From memory they are around £2.50 - £3.00 per bag. The bag isn't very inspiring but I'm sure you could repackage them to look more 'special'
