Summary: Simply the best dark chocolate
Comment: I had first purchased from Leonidas as a last minute Valentine's Day present for my boyfriend. They were a bit on the pricey side, but I figured I would give them a chance because of the rave reviews. My boyfriend received them on Valentine's Day and he called me right away to tell me how great they were. His coworkers were even asking if they could have some.
Because he loved them so much, I decided to get his family 2 lbs of a dark chocolate assortment and the regular assortment as a thank you gift. They were absolutely thrilled. I got to see the packages in person when I was visiting one weekend and the package was smaller than I originally thought. Nonetheless, the chocolates were still a big hit with everyone who tried them.

Comment: As chocolate lovers know, dark chocolate is the only substance worthy of the name. This is premium-grade stuff, ranking with Godiva and other small purveyors. I'm salivating, just writing this note. And, I will be ordering more of the same from this supplier.

Comment: When we lived in France, Leonidas had many locations in our city. Their products (although no doubt produced on industrial scale) were always excellent, capable of competition with the local artisan chocolate stores. Oh, the local artisan chocolate stores! OK, can't be found here, so we buy Leonidas and we are very happy with this. Nothing we have found in the US compares.

Summary: Chocolates for True Chocolate Connoisseurs
Comment: If it is possible to fall madly in love with a box of chocolates, then the assortment is the perfect place to start such an adventure. These chocolate are named after Leonidas Kestekidis, who definitely knew how to create chocolates for the true chocolate connoisseur.
When he moved back to Belgium he not only married his true love, he created chocolates the world now adores. When you taste these chocolates, your taste buds will also finally know true chocolate happiness. Whether you try one of these with a cup of coffee or tea or enjoy one as a daily indulgence, these will impress.
The "I Love You" chocolate with dreamy lemon filling embodies this sentiment. Each chocolate has a unique design and the I Love You chocolate has two hearts, ribbons and a seal. After you sample the variety of chocolates, specific flavors will stand out as favorites.
Here are my favorite creamy fillings (ganache and butter cream) which come in dark, white and milk chocolate depending on the selection:
Antoinette - A smooth Brandy flavored ganache
Lingoit Lait - Absolutely delicious vanilla flavored fresh butter cream filling. Time definitely stopped while tasting this chocolate.
Irrésistible - Dark chocolate and Strawberry sauce.
For ever - If you love coffee this may be one of the most delicious milk or dark chocolate chocolates ever made as it is filled with a special coffee cream that has hints of caramel. I ordered an entire box of these and they come in a variety of flavors. The milk chocolate and cherry filling is like Claude Debussy's Rêverie. It is difficult to describe besides saying it is like a delicate cherry icing wrapped in milk chocolate.
Merveilleux - Milk or dark chocolate filled with coffee ganache.
Europe - Dark or milk chocolate filled with rum filling.
Ganache - Milk or dark chocolate with pure ganache.
Tosca - Milk chocolate with a special ganache.
Poésie - Dark chocolate and a Cointreau filling.
Antoinette - Delicate caramel hints in the milk chocolate coating mingle nicely with the vanilla filling.
Eve - Milk or dark chocolate with a creamy dreamy banana filling.
Alexandre le grand - A milk or dark chocolate with caramel cream.
Also Recommended:
If you wish to also try the Napolitains, I'd suggest the 1 pound sampler Ballotin with six varieties. You may also want to look for the new Palet d'Or. A deeply delicious and strong bitter chocolate filled with ganache. The center is made with butter, cream and chocolate and the outer coating is a masterpiece with gold decorations.
Leonidas now has over 1700 stores and sales locations worldwide and they offer over 80 varieties of fresh chocolates. The chocolates are air freighted weekly from Brussels so you will always find the quality to be superior.
My chocolates arrived fast and were as fresh as if I had purchased them in Belgium. They were carefully packaged in the famous gold boxes with signature/seasonal wrapping and a ribbon. The boxes were then placed in protective Styrofoam containers to protect the chocolates during shipping. The expedited shipping is recommended from May to early September.
