Look at all the rich posers tryna flaunt their chocolate knowledge out for the world to see. Only 'mahangi' chocolates I have ever bought were bournville for my ex girlfriends in order to get laid.

For the life of me, I can't recollect the name. Maybe you should get those for the not so sanskari ones in the tics household. jim beam liquor chocolates are available everywhere here ( and the only brand i know ) .. anyway they are haram for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velu Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 @Cricketics assuming you are going to gift it to some of the punjabi households , for punjus cost of the gift is more valuable than the items you are going to gift Cricketics and Sgattick10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarke Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Get some gourmet ones like mulo mentioned from a decent store in the city a day before flying. Make sure you communicate best before date in case you care for the people ur gifting coz those don't last long. Cricketics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBN Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 personally i don't like these 'variety' high end chocolates, basic ones like mars/snickers are the best for me Cricketics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zen Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 There are brands unique in Europe. Can't recall the name of this one but the taste of its chocolates and pastries is still fresh in my mind.

I know most you can find these days, but there must be some popular ones which are hard to find in India or are still considered great and aren't that easily affordable or you have to really look for it hard to find. What kinds are those? Are lindt all kinds available. Will the big lindt bars like these shown below in the image be considered good gift or its something you can easily find on roadside shop? Would love to hear some names. I would like to take something unique which isn't available easily in India or something which isn't sold everywhere. My Brother-in-law told me that Lindt is available in India, even fake knock-off Chinese Lindt is available - I would think a 1000 times before eating any processed/packaged foods made in China. Is there nothing these guys won't counterfeit? Cricketics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also heard that top end stores carry these original chocolates but since its bit on expensive side, they are sitring their for a while and not fresh enough. I can see that case often. You might be paying 400 rupees for old chocolate almost about to expire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
