The Lindor brand is probably what’s pushed the most from Lindt, at least here in Britain. Usually in truffle form, they are big sellers at Christmas, Easter and all year round at birthdays as a relatively inexpensive, and yet always well appreciated gift. This is the Lindor format…only in bar form.

They call it ‘Milk chocolate with a soft-melting filling’, and that sums the bar up pretty well. What it essentially means is the standard Lindt chocolate is filled with more chocolate, only the centre of it is softer than normal and melts very easily. It almost crosses the boundaries between liquid and solid, with the heat from your mouth melting it within seconds.

I made the mistake of eating this at room temperature, the bar was incredibly soft and had no snap to it at all, instead it was more of a gooey bend and I didn’t have the time or patience to cool it in a fridge, and so just ate the bar like that.

Whilst a delicious, creamy chocolate experience, I do have a couple of gripes with this. The first is that it’s a very sickly bar, chocolate filled with a different type of chocolate is a sugary mix, and I couldn’t handle much of this at once. My second gripe is that for me it didn’t quite recapture the taste of the Lindor truffles, something about this just wasn’t quite as good as they are.

That’s not to take anything away from this though, because as a stand alone bar it’s quite superb. The chocolate is of a magnificent quality and of course up to Lindt’s extremely high standards. I highly recommend this to milk chocolate lovers and fans of Lindt chocolate in general.
