WCIF Terry’s Chocolate Orange?

Taiwan Where Can I Find...?
1

Folks, it’s getting to be the holiday season and I was fondly thinking about Terry’s Chocolate Orange.

Has anyone seen them in Taiwan?

I can order via Amazon, but would prefer to buy locally.

At the Tianmu Carrefour, I guess? Huh - I thought this’d be a ridiculously long-shot request.

Now I’m almost regretful that I don’t like the chocolate-orange combo.

Got one :slight_smile: I don’t think I would have looked twice at them if @MalcolmReynolds hadn’t posted.

This does not sound like the @afterspivak I know.

It was delicious.

Well, there are heaps of varieties of chocolate out there in Taiwan—amazing really. So I don’t want to waste my hard earned cash on a less-than-stellar product. :rofl:

OK one further query: dark chocolate or milk? What do those who know recommend?

I’ve also seen them in the Ximen Carrefour (couple of months ago). I’d go for milk.

Thanks @tempogain. I really appreciate it.

I’ll be making the jaunt to the Tanshui Carrefour and I’ll report back if I find them there, too.

Cheers everyone.

p.s. I’ve only ever had the milk chocolate ones, so I think I’ll give the dark a try as well. I think, 20 milk chocolate and 20 dark should be enough to pass around to my other family members here in Taiwan.

p.p.s. Now, I’ve just got to find me a carton or bottle of genuine egg nog.

The other one is Cadbury’s creme eggs.

They are, or were, only intermittently manufactured.

This was another good one

I always wonder if that one’s really about sweets.

A lot of people thought this one wasn’t at the time, but I think it just is.

No, they taste like overwhelming amounts of artificial orange flavor mixed with inferior chocolate.
