I love your blog! I just had these today, and I ate four of them without even realizing it. They are definitely better than the hazelnut kind…and the textures are great. Must. not. eat. the other four….

I received some of these today with the instruction to review them for chocablog. Sadly – already done :(

However, I quite liked them, as did the BBQ guests. The plain ole Ferrero Rocher thing is a bit tired now. I thought they were wonderful when they first came out, now, they are a bit of a yawn. The Rondnoir is a bit like a grown-ups version. The chocolate is a bit darker, the flavours a bit stronger. It’s clearly designed not to offend, and as such it doesn’t stand out as exceptional either.

But given a choice, I’d take these over the Rocher any day. And there are few left in the box so I’ll try another one in a day or so and see if the feelings then are still confirmed.

I’m not a fan of the whole Ferrero Rocher thing but decided to give these ones a try about a month back (being a huge dark chocolate fan and all). Unfortunately, these ones weren’t able to change my opinion. A little but ‘all style, no substance’ :(

I wouldn’t be surprised if these were made in different countries with ingredients from different sources – and different packaging, even if they’re supposedly the same thing.

It would seem that in Oz Ferrero are more upfront about cocoa content and such. My box had precious little information regarding percentages.
There again, given Dom’s recent comment on Dark Kit Kats, we could have been reviewing two totally different products!

The image on the box is really scary – it looks like a sort of half open eye …
