I've started seeing Tony's Chocolonely in stores recently, but it's about £3.80 UK price as opposed to a similarly sized Cadbury's bar which is anywhere from £1.50 to £2.00.
It's a shame because I love a good chocolate bar but nearly £4 is a bit too steep for me.
it is steep but it's good chocolate. It makes you rethink your relationship with it doesn't it, we take it for granted when in fact it should be a very occasional treat. This is not meant as a preachy statement, I'm very guilty of eating too much chocolate but I think it's the first step in a more positive direction.
Lindt is a high quality European brand but definitely more expensive. M&S brand chocolate is nice and decently priced. Other supermarkets have their own brands which are cheaper but not as nice IMO.
