Hotel Chocolat Secrets & Desires
We’ve mentioned many times before just how important packaging is. Whether simple or extravagant, it can make or break a product.
Hotel Chocolat have always been experts at packaging, and this is no exception. In fact, the packaging for the product is so good, this review is going to be a little different… it’s mainly photos…
You can see the full sized photos over on our Facebook gallery.
Impressive, isn’t it? It’s risqué, yet elegant and beautifully produced. And I’m happy to say the chocolate is just as good as it looks. The four “Beginner”, “Curious”, “Daring” and “Hardcore” packages each contain two slabs of increasingly dark chocolate. Ranging from white & fruity to 85% Ghanian chocolate in the “Hardcore” package.
The “Mouth” box contains some utterly divine Champagne truffles (deliciously soft and smooth without being overly alcoholic), and the “Eyes” box contains… a blindfold! How wonderfully bizarre!
It’s this kind of sense of humour, adventure and quality that make Hotel Chocolat stand apart consistently. The chocolate is, as you’d expect, fantastic. But it’s the experience of opening the box that really makes this special. So if you love someone who loves chocolate, head on over to the Hotel Chocolat shop and get some of these delivered in time for Valentine’s Day.
I absolutely guarantee that you will not regret it.

Did you just get sent this? I got sent a Peepster Box from them instead that contained 2 of the same chocolate! Not that I’m complaining, mind, but…this sorta puts it to shame.

I did, yes. Luck of the draw, I guess.
Although you could always be cheeky and ask for something specific next time. :)
