What sets the Chocolate Smiths apart from all other manufactures that I have tried are the ingredients and flavours that they create with their chocolate bars

I bought the chocolate for my wife for Christmas and her face lit up when she opened the gift.
However the nut roast was insanely salty and she didn’t like that one. She was trying to shave the salt off to eat it lol

I’ve been so excited to try the chocolate smiths. I knew I was going to set an alarm and bag some bars for Christmas. The packaging is beautiful. Every detail is just utter perfection. That alone gets 5 stars. But sadly the taste just didn’t pack a punch like I expected it to. I have followed you for years and watched you grow on social media and I see the hard work that goes into the making of the bars. I can appreciate the quality of the chocolate. But if I was to close my eyes and taste the bars I wouldn’t be able to tell you what they were. The best one I got was the French toast bar. That had some great flavour profiles. The geordie was a great eat texturally, and the stroop waffle bar also. My main find was that the caramel needed to pack more of a punch of it did the French toast bar would have been a 10/10. Some sea salt would have elevated it to a whole new level. The texture was great - but taste wise it just tasted sweet - that’s it. The coffee in the stroop waffle bar was a very low flavour profile. Could definitely add more to it. I know you take feedback on board - I post this with the upmost respect to you and your business.

Thank you so much for your kind and honest review — and for following our journey over the years. It means the world to us that you set an alarm to grab bars for Christmas, and that you noticed the details in our packaging — we put so much love into every part of what we do, so your words truly mean a lot. 💛🍫
We really appreciate your feedback on the flavour profiles. Our bars are all about balancing indulgence with quality ingredients, and we always aim to create something memorable and fun. It’s great to hear that French Toast hit the mark for you — and we completely agree that a touch of sea salt can be a game-changer! We’re actually working behind the scenes to fine-tune a few classics, and thoughtful insights like yours help us evolve with purpose.
You’re absolutely right — we do take feedback to heart, and we’re always looking for ways to improve without compromising the values we care about (ethics, freshness, no artificial flavourings, and working with incredible chocolate like Luker). ✨
Thank you again for taking the time to write such a considered review. We hope we can delight you even more in future — and we’re so grateful for your continued support.
Krystyna is a star
I stupidly placed two orders a few hours apart and then emailed to combine the orders.
Krystyna was super helpful, even when there was an issue with some of the chocolate bars not arriving all at the same time.
She was polite, helpful and gave reassurance that the issue would be sorted.
Chocolate itself is delicious. Favourites wonder are the fifty bar by a country mile followed by the baklava bar and coffee and stroopwaffle bar.

We’re so glad Krystyna could help get everything sorted — even with a few hiccups along the way! It means a lot that you appreciated the support and stayed patient while we made things right 💛
And we LOVE your top bar picks — The Fifty, Baklava, and Coffee & Stroopwafel are some of our favourites too! 😍
Thank you again for your kind words and support — we can’t wait to treat you again soon!
Been a customer since the early days!
I have bought chocolate from these guys since they first started and buy it as a treat to myself every now and again. Never disappoints and for a bit of self love - worth the money. Yes it’s a bit more expensive but isn’t all the things in life that matter! Postage costs are a bit of hit but hey that’s just the way it is now. I’m now a subscriber again as I once was in years gone by so yeah give them a shot!

We know we’re a little more expensive than the average bar, but hearing that you see the value in what we do — from ethical sourcing to small-batch creativity — honestly keeps us going. And yes, postage is no fun for anyone these days, but we so appreciate your understanding. 📦✨
Welcome back to the subscription family — we’re so excited to treat you all over again!
Krystyna was amazing
Krystyna was amazing. Bought a ticket for an event as a Christmas present. I got a novelty ticket printed and sent it to the Chocolate smiths who wrapped it up in a bar of the coffee and stroopwaffel chocolate like something from Charlie and the chocolate factory.
The chocolate is incredible anyway which is why I asked them to do this but Thankyou Krystyna for going the extra mile and helping me out with my request. My wife loved it.

It’s always an honour to be part of thoughtful gifts like this — thank you again for your kind words, and for choosing our chocolate to be part of such a lovely memory.

Totally worth it!
This company takes a while to deliver because they are small but it is so worth the wait!
I've had a couple of orders from them now and the quality of product is exquisite. I can recommend the black forest and nana's biscuit tin.
Great as a fancy treat or as a gift, I highly recommend!

Over priced and over hyped
This was my first and last time buying anything from the chocolate smiths. I purchased the dunk cookie collaboration bar. It took 3 weeks to arrive from date of purchase. The bar was a cookie slab, covered in caramel and coated in the thinnest layer of chocolate possible. €20.95 plus shipping for the quality that you receive is disgusting. With the price being so high I thought the shipping might be free, but nope, that’s an additional charge. And before I forget the expiration date is ridiculous. January was the expiration on the label. Not the end of January but the beginning. Very short shelf life.
The cookie was a bit oily with no real flavour beyond that. Now I’m not the biggest lover of biscoff to begin with but the biscoff spread was palatable. Better than what I expected in terms of flavour.
The chocolate was absolutely vile. Tasted like cheap, low quality ingredients. Wavy, tangy and sugary is the best way to describe the flavour. I’d go as far saying American chocolate tastes better than this. If the ingredients list are to be believed there was 48.6% cocoa solids in the recipe, so I’ll commend you on that. Also the chocolate portion of this bar was wafer thin, which broke way too easily. A toddler would be able to crack the layer of chocolate. To fill the gap, caramel was pumped in. Obviously done to cut costs and drive up profit margins.
The box presentation seemed to have gotten the most funding as it was actually well put together. The wrapper was cheap paper and printed from a cheap printer and ink. The gold aluminium foil was very thin and not at all sturdy.
It is clear as day that this company is all about producing the lowest of quality, while charging extortionate prices to have the biggest profit margins possible. Price per gram, I can get 100 times the quality for half the price from other companies. Oh and those other companies don’t add on shipping as an additional cost.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. While we’re genuinely sorry the product wasn’t to your taste, there are a few points we’d like to clarify for accuracy.
Firstly, the chocolate used in our bars is Luker Chocolate, sourced directly from Colombia. Luker is recognised globally for its exceptional quality and ethical sourcing. It supports smallholder cocoa farmers and pays significantly above market rates — values we’re proud to support, even though it comes at a higher cost to us. This is not low‑quality or budget chocolate — it’s some of the best available.
The Dunk Cookie bar was part of a limited-edition collaboration, designed to celebrate another brilliant small business we carefully chose for the quality of their products. Our collab bars are handcrafted in small batches and are intentionally indulgent — with textures like cookie, caramel, and chocolate in balance. The thinner chocolate shell is a deliberate design choice to complement, not overpower, the other elements — not a cost-saving measure.
We understand the shelf life felt short, but that’s actually a positive: our collaboration bars are made fresh and contain no preservatives, which naturally limits their best-before date to around two weeks. This speaks to the quality and freshness of the ingredients — not a flaw in the product.
Shipping is charged separately at cost, and always made clear at checkout. As a small independent business shipping handcrafted items internationally, we don’t build postage into our pricing — we prefer transparency.
Taste is, of course, subjective, and we fully respect that our bars won’t be for everyone. But to say we are driven by high margins and low quality simply isn’t true — we’re deeply committed to working with ethical suppliers, paying a living wage, and supporting other small makers who care about quality as much as we do.

We’re very sorry to hear you’ve been left feeling this way, but as explained in our previous communication, your parcel is showing as successfully delivered and no confirmation of loss has been provided by Royal Mail.
As a small independent business, we always do our best to help when things go wrong — and we’ve offered replacements and support to you on more than one occasion in the past. However, we also need to follow the correct procedures in line with Royal Mail’s policies. In cases where a parcel is marked as successfully delivered with a proof of delivery image, they require the recipient to open the initial enquiry so they can complete their GPS and delivery investigation before escalating it to the sender.
If Royal Mail confirms in writing that the parcel has been misdelivered or declared lost, we’re more than happy to review this again. Without that, we’re unable to proceed further from our side.
Thank you for your understanding.
Great chocolate
I managed to buy the chocolates this time around with it being so popular.
It didn’t disappoint either.

Very average chocolate
Very average chocolate, in my opinion. Not worth the £27 for 290g of chocolate. I see they are a 'living wage' employer and being a independant company they need to charge a bit more which i'm okay with (reason I played the order in the first place). Dispite that fact, I shall not be a repeat customer.
All the best to them.
