Belgian Dark Chocolate Thins

Belgian Dark Chocolate Thins
Tonight World of Snacks is back in Belgium as we search the globe for the very best snacks in the world.  Our last Belgian snack review was over a year ago so we are extremely excited to expand our knowledge of foreign snacks from this country.  Our snack review is of Royal Chocolates Belgian Dark Chocolate Thins. 
Royal Chocolates was founded by Jan and Kris Van Dyck in 1993.  Their vision was to bring high quality Belgian chocolates to the market at an affordable price.  Initially their operation was seasonal but has since expanded greatly.  In fact they can now product up to 5200 chocolate thins per minute!
This Belgian confectionery company produces several variations of their chocolate thins.  Our snack under review is Royal Chocolates Dark Chocolate variety.  Our sample weighs in at 4.4oz and comes in a tub shaped thin cardboard box.  It’s mostly white and trimmed in a rich red color on both the top and bottom.  “Dark” is contained across the top followed by “Luscious, dark chocolate thins filled with crispy rice puffs.  Simply irresistible!”  Let’s move onto our taste test and see if these imported dark chocolate thins are as irresistible as they say.
Our first impression- they are nearly irresistible!  They chocolate is creamy and just a tad sweet.  It’s a rich dark chocolate.  The crispy rice puffs are very small, unlike any other rice puffs we’ve encountered in international candy.  So needless to say the taste of this Belgian snack is delicious, however it’s the texture that has us enthralled.  The “thins” similar to small Pringle style chips but made entirely of dark chocolate.  The chocolates are very thin and crisp.  The back of the package shows the Belgian Dark Chocolate Thins used as a topping on ice cream and a cupcake, we have to agree with Royal Chocolates- these would be an ideal topping to take your treats the next level.
Royal Chocolates Thins
At the beginning of the year we launched our international snack store.  Through out 2014 we’ve expanded the store to include the best snacks from several countries.  Our goal is to include a total of 12 countries in our normal inventory.  Will World of Snacks offer Belgian Dark Chocolate Thins in our international snacks store?  It’s to soon to tell.  We need to try a few more Belgian snacks to make that determination.  One thing is for sure though; if we do offer Belgian snacks for sale online we will absolutely offer several of Royal Chocolates Thins!  If you’d like to stay in touch as we add new inventory be sure to leave your details to the right.  Keep on snacking world!

Galler Chocolatier White Chocolate Coffee Candy Bar

Galler White Chocolate Coffee Candy Bar
World of Snacks is traveling the globe in search of the very best international snacks to select inventory for our e-store opening later this year. This week we are visiting our 27th country! Where in the world have we not sampled delicious snacks from?  This is our very first visit to Belgium!  We are reviewing Galler Chocolatier White Chocolate Coffee Candy Bar.

Galler is high-end Belgium based chocolatier that got their start in 1976 when Jean Galler and his family came together to purchase their fist chocolate shop.  Galler still owns and operates store fronts in Belgium, France, Japan, and Saudi Arabia- just to mention a few.  They Galler brand has also made an appearance in the US and is offered in select store fronts and their candy bars are even available for purchase online in the US, directly from Galler.  Currently this chocolatier offers 22 flavors of gourmet candy bars and boasts they only use noble and natural ingredients.   To learn more about the Galler history take time to watch the video below.
We are excited to review the Galler White Chocolate Coffee Candy Bar.   The price point for this high-end snack is nearly $4 per bar, so our expectations are high.  Their packaging and presentation hold up to our standards for pricey candy bars, but let's dive in and see what it tastes like.  Being I am a huge fan of white chocolate and a lover of coffee I imagined this candy bar to be life changing.  Unfortunately it is not.  The flavor is unique, but the two do not merge well together.  The white chocolate is creamy and a bit too sweet.  The coffee filling does not elude to a high-end espresso, it rather taste more like old coffee from a gas station. The filling texture is mousse-like but for some reason has chards of something in it.  Little chewy morsels of what I assume is coffee?  Overall I was personally let down and our other tasters were not moved by this Belgium candy bar.  However, as I am writing this review I am sampling bites to keep the review fresh and am noticing that I am starting to enjoy it more.  Maybe Galler's White Chocolate Coffee Bar is one that grows on you over time.  We do intend to give them another shot with one of their other unique flavor combinations.

Will World of Snacks offer the Galler Chocolatier White Chocolate Coffee Belgium candy bar when we launch our international snack store?  Chances are we will not initially stock this treat.  We are not sure if Belgium itself will be included at the launch and with the availability of Galler Candy Bars directly from the manufacture online it doesn't make sense for our company to offer it.   If you like this review and want to be notified of our grand opening be sure to submit your details to the right.
