Today’s Lindt reviews are the rest of the free samples that I received from their PR peeps. Other new Lindt bars were covered on Monday. These Lindt “Hello” bars are new limited editions that are exclusive to Target. Unlike the Excellence bars, which are solid chocolate, the Hello bars are softer pods of filled chocolate….

Lindt Excellence – Blackberry with Acai, Lychee, and Pomegranate
Believe it or not, getting a PhD takes up a lot of time. I haven’t updated in a while, but I’ve been, at least temporarily, broken?out of my hiatus by two things: 1) I was in?Berlin?for a conference/workshop?and came back with some German candy; and 2) I just received some free samples of U.S. Lindt…
Lindt Passion Chocolat – Caramel & Fleur de Sel
I’m lucky enough to have recently returned from a trip to Switzerland. We were mostly hiking the Alps, but I made sure to make some time to buy Swiss candies, including lots of chocolate. First up, this fancy Lindt Passion Chocolat – Caramel & Fleur de Sel. It was described as “accord parfait du chocolat…
Lindt Lemon
Lindt Lemon is the newest chocolate bar in Lindt’s Excellence line-up, billed as “dark with citrus pieces and almond slivers”. I received a free sample from Lindt for review. Alas, the overnight shipping, cold pack, and insulated bag couldn’t stand up to the North Carolina heat, so my sample arrived melted and not as photogenic…
Guest post: Lindt Lindor Panna Cotta Passionfruit
Note from Rosa: Here’s another guest post from expat friend Neil. He wrote this in May 2013 but only just now found the photos. I try not to subject you to reviews of candy I’ve let expire, but I’m making an exception for this. January 2013 wasn’t that long ago, right…? This came from a…
Lindt Excellence Black Currant
I saw this Lindt Excellence Black Currant bar at Cost Plus World Market and couldn’t resist picking it up, both because black currant is an unusual flavor to find in the U.S. and because I’d never seen it before, so I thought it was a new product. Apparently, I’m a little behind the times, as…
Lindt White Coconut
I’m usually not a fan of white chocolate. But Walgreen’s had Lindt on sale, and I couldn’t resist picking up this bar of White Coconut, as I’d never tried it before. It was a white chocolate bar “with delicate coconut flakes”. I don’t universally hate white chocolate – Trader Joe’s white chocolate chips are great…
Boozy Lindt Capsules
I bought a trio of booze-filled Lindt bars two summers ago in Cambridge, England. Whisky is pictured below; the other two were Irish Coffee and Cointreau. While I tasted the chocolates soon after I bought them, it took me until now to get around to writing about them. Why the wait? Because every single one…
Lindt a Touch of Sea Salt
Lindt’s “A Touch of Sea Salt” bar has been on the market for a while: Chocablog covered it way back in August 2008, and Cybele wrote about it last October. I finally picked one up last week because it was on sale at good old Wegmans. The package design is simple – a balanced Lindt…
Lindt Croquant de Caramel
I bought this Lindt Croquant de Caramel bar in France. It’s “lait aux ?clats de fin caramel”, or milk chocolate with caramel (toffee) bits/chips. I swear, French makes everything sound better. Check out the description from the back of the box: “D’abord un plaisir pour les yeux avec sa belle teinte blonde ou l’on devine…
