I love Tony's but I don't know if it is because of how thick the bar is or if it is how irregular and hard to snap the chunks are (and the taste) but I find it so much harder to eat in moderation.

They sell these cute (but even more expensive) chocolate eggs:

Honestly, anything fair trade.
Galler from Belgium is pretty amazing

I like Lindt, but the increase in cocoa prices have made it difficult to justify spending $5 on a small chocolate bar.

Cocoa is (almost) as cheap as 10 years ago.

"Cocoa futures traded around $3,200 per tonne, holding close to the lowest since June 2023, pressured by expectations of a record harvest in West Africa and rising stockpiles. " Source https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/cocoa 1000075419

Anything Scandinavian. I spent 2 weeks in Norway when I was in the Navy, and I'll never go back to American chocolate. Flavorless brown wax.

Fazer from Finland. Maybe Panda from Finland, if I want something more eastery, but those are much more sweet and less chocolatey.

aldi has a saltet caramel and a raspberry dark chochlate. Thats the shit.

Danish Anthon Berg is good and they have some Easter themed chocolates, like chocolate eggs. I also like Fazer from Finland.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, they all taste mostly the same to me. So the few times I buy chocolate I go for proximity and pick Valor. Again, no idea if it is good or not.

Le Chocolat by Alan Ducass for fancy, Gepa 95% for every day.
