Very nice chocolates,
By
This review is from: Amedei I Tartufi Pralines (Misc.)
After my experience with the Amedei Limited Edition Chuao bar, also available on Amazon, I had to expand my horizons with Amedei and will endeavor to write reviews on all of their products. For those of you who have tried Amedei products before, you'll recognize this as blatant self-serving, but for the rest of you let me assure you that I only have the most noble of motives - to provide an honest review based upon personal experience.
That being said, I must admit that I have become a fan of this company. Everything I've tried so far from this company has been of extraordinarily high quality, and these continue that trend. As noted, I first tried the Chuao bar and followed with several other fine varieties, and I had accordingly high expectations of the Special Amedei Pralines Selection but found myself disappointed, so when it came time to try the Amedei I Tartufi Pralines I did so with some apprehension. Fortunately, I found them to be more in line with other Amedei products. Nice, neat white box with elegant European styling, opens into two individually sealed trays each with six pieces. Opening one of the sealed trays allows for a lovely aroma of chocolate to emerge. The chocolates have a nice sheen and appear quite attractive. However, to paraphrase an old saying, the proof is in the eating. The chocolates have a firm, pleasing texture--much like most other fine chocolates of this type, and comparable to the Godiva truffles. The taste of the chocolates are also quite pleasing, and have a unique variety that you won't find elsewhere. It should be noted that Amedei uses real liqueurs in the liqueur-flavored pralines, so if it is rum flavored it is because there is real rum in the chocolate. If having actual alcohol in your candy is a problem, then be aware. As with the Special Amedei Pralines Selection, they were all very good chocolates, just not the knock-your-socks-off, this-is-chocolate-as-God-intended kind of experience that you'll find with the bars. I find that these are very good chocolates, and strongly preferred the Amedei I Tartufi Pralines compared to the Special Amedei Pralines Selection, but they still fail to be as inspiring as the bars can be at times. That being said, they do have a different dimension to them than the bars do, and I do intend to order these again in the future as I enjoyed them that much. They don't lend themselves to sharing at parties as much as the larger boxes you'll find with the Selections (12 pieces compared to 36), but they're very nice for smaller groups (say, 2-4 people). As with any order from Amedei, it will be shipped with ice packs to preserve the integrity of the chocolate but has the unfortunate effect of driving up the total cost of shipping. Anticipate a significant shipping charge if ordering just one item. My recommendation is to order several items to spread out and justify this cost, which only makes sense as this chocolate is too good not to share with friends!

Absolutely the best dark chocolate. Need to savor in small pieces, as it is so rich.
