I like the sound of these. Breaking bars up into equal pieces is always a bit tricky. I had a look at the Hotel Chocolate site and found, to my surprise and pleasure, that they have 3 stockists in my town including a shop of their own and John Lewis, so no postage to pay. I shall certainly look out for BOGOF offers.
I think that is the best "first world problem" I have heard for some time.Hotel Chocolate 100% buttons are not evenly sized

OK maybe we should all be discussing what to do about Syria, but personally I won't be joining in.I think that is the best "first world problem" I have heard for some time.
Yes! I bought 2 x 230g bags today in a Cafe Chocolat store and they gave me 10% off with the code. 460g high quality 100% dark chocolate for £9 seems to me a real bargain, even if their portion control is a bit lacking.Currently £6 for a 230g bag, £10 for 2, which for 100% chocolate is quite reasonable. I also found a 10% off voucher DDS10HC but I'm not sure this can be used in store.
uperficially this looked like a great option - but then I read the back label. The "dark 85%" is 18g carbohydrate per 100g product (4.6g per bar) - the "orange 85% cocoa" is 47g carb per 100g product (17g per bar).
would recommend Cavalier Chocolates instead. It's sweetened with Stevia so it won't spike your blood glucose levels, available at Waitrose or Ocado.com
+1Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference 85% cocoa dark chocolate is also about 16g carbs per 100g. The pack contains 5 individually wrapped bars, about 4g carbs in each. Tastes lovely and does melt in the mouth!
Contains sweeteners.Try chocologic, found it at Morrisons .......... very nice, 5 giant buttons 3g carbs. 1/6th of the block one (i.e. 4 squares) 2.5g carbs.
They have it in both dark and milk chocolate, giant buttons and blocks.
Also is one of the few chocolate bars that does NOT contain de-fatted (Dutched) cocoa powder. This process reduces the polyphenol content, which is what supposedly makes dark chocolate beneficial to the immune system. Montezuma and Hotel Chocolat chocolate drops are two non-Dutched 100% products which share this virtue.Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference 85% cocoa dark chocolate is also about 16g carbs per 100g. The pack contains 5 individually wrapped bars, about 4g carbs in each. Tastes lovely and does melt in the mouth!
I wouldn't have even known to look for it.Good job noticing this! I always check nutrition info but would not expect something like this.
Contains sweeteners.
True. Easy to forget.It contains steviol glycosides, a sugar alcohol, which doesn't cause spikes with me, so I'll continue to have a small amount of it.
Liks any of these things, you need to test to see if they affect you.
