Best chocolates by post 2022

Chococo Dorset sea salt caramel chocolates

• Available from Chococo (£12.50)

Looking for a crowd-pleasing chocolate gift? These decadent salted caramel chocolates from Chococo are guaranteed to be a hit. The smooth liquid caramel centre pairs beautifully with the intense dark chocolate with a pleasant salty kick. Made with local ingredients in West Dorset, each chocolate gem is hand decorated with cocoa butter speckles. We also love the honeycomb chocolates (£12.50) made with 45% Venezuelan milk chocolate and crunchy local Dorset honeycomb. Chococo's truffles are always top-notch with incredible attention to detail - you can't go wrong.

Booja-Booja chocolate truffles selection

• Available from Amazon (£9.99), Ocado (£11.50), Planet Organic (£11.50)

Fan-favourite chocolate brand Booja-Booja offers a selection of its classic vegan-friendly truffles for just under £10. The squares of organic dark chocolate are full of rich flavours, including roasted hazelnut, gooey salted caramel, toasted almond, stem ginger, tangy rhubarb, and bold Mexican coffee. The selection includes 16 truffles, each rolled in bitter cocoa powder to offset the sweet ganache centres. We think this selection is fantastic value for money.

Charbonnel et Walker pink champagne truffles

• Available from Amazon (£15.20), Charbonnel et Walker (£16)

Booze lovers will enjoy these luxurious truffles infused with a warming alcoholic kick and a subtle hint of strawberry. These iconic treats are a cult classic for a reason – the rich and creamy ganache centre is covered in a white chocolate shell, then rolled in icing sugar for an extra special touch. If champagne isn't for you, try another one of Charbonnel et Walker's famous flavours, such as dark sea salt caramel or Sipsmith gin.
