Trader Joe's Chocolate Palette Review
He says (Mark): The packaging…the packaging! Brilliant and fun and uber colorful. The selections inside include some of my favorite flavors! Milk Chocolate Praline, to name just one pick. Each piece is just right for 2 bites. In the case of the vanilla and caramel with the more runny fillings, it's best to have the 2nd bite quickly to prevent a mess. Whether your tastes lean towards dark or milk chocolate, there is something here to taste and savor. The Belgians make some fine sweets, don't you think? You CAN eat just one in a sitting, but why stop there?
Overall rating: 5 of 5 stars
She says (Bridget): There's something for everyone in this box of chocolates. I was first struck by the pretty packaging - this would make a sweet little gift! Second, I loved the variety of chocolate, both the dark and milk, and the flavors. I'm a dark chocolate girl, but I love milk, too, so it was wonderful to have a mix. The exterior chocolate is so smooth and shiny, while the range of textures on the inside kept things interesting. If you shy away from dark chocolate because it can be bitter, I found these dark chocolate bars to be deep and rich without any bitter tones. My favorites: Dark Chocolate Vanilla Bar, Dark Chocolate Crispy Corn Bar, and Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Bar. The perfect 2-bite treat!
Overall rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bridget: Definitely...both for us and as a gift.
