Lindt Excellence Intense Orange

Lindt Excellence Orange Intense (100g bar) I was drawn towards the dark side again this week (as far as chocolate is concerned that is). The combination of dark chocolate and orange was very appealing, as well as the fact that it was on offer this week. On the back of the packaging it says - A delightful contrast of exceptionally fine dark chocolate with tender pieces of orange and slivers of almond. I was keen to find out if it tasted as good as it sounded. A Few Facts * This flavour of the Excellence range was launched in October 2004. * Other flavours in the 100g range are 70%, 80% (dark ... more

Earlier this week I bought a bar of Lindt Excellence Orange Intense due to it being on promotion in my local Morrisons supermarket. The promotion was the reason I were drawn to make the purchase, though I had a number of flavours to choose from, which seemed ever so tempting, and so much so that I couldn't resist. Although 'Orange Intense' has been around for quite some time now I had never got round to giving it a try, probably because of the price that Lindt usually have on their ranges. Lindt are well-known for being 'Master Chocolatiers' and I am sure most of you will have come across the ... more

Lindt Excellence Orange Intense I don't know if anyone else saw the news report a few weeks ago, but apparently dark bitter chocolate and red wine are the new blueberries, when it comes to looking after your heart.

Well it comes as a block of chocolate (which is increasingly popular and downright trendy right now) in posh cardboard packaging. It is encased in silver foil to ensure it looks even posher ... more

I was encouraged to try Lindt Intense Orange. WOW! I believe you do not need to eat as much due to its richness and the satisfaction of only eating a couple of squares. I have introduced others to this chocolate and the same response again and again. I believe It is great as a finisher at a dinner party with some lovely coffee, or just a treat to you and your partner snuggled up on the lounge. I do feel more comfortable when this item is on sale, but will at times purchase it at full price due to its quality and that I do not need to eat as much chocolate as a standard "Cadbury" or "Nestle" ... more
