Lindt

The Lindt chocolates are exquisite, as they have a burst of soft, melted chocolate inside when you bite into these candies.

Lindt has truly famous Lindor truffles, which come in five different flavors. The delicious flavors include all types of chocolate:

• White chocolate
• Dark chocolate
• Extra dark chocolate
• Milk chocolate
• Hazelnut

Many of the ingredients in these sweet truffles include sugar, milk, cocoa butter, chocolate, vegetable oil, and barley malt powder.

The Lindt brand also includes delicious chocolate bars and chocolate boxes with gourmet truffles. 

These elegant chocolates are perfect for any fancy affair. You can serve them at your wedding, birthday party, or anniversary celebration. At the same time, your children will love it for dessert.

Nestlé

Nestlé’s motto is “Good food, Good life”; this is something we can get behind. Not only is Nestlé a popular chocolate company, but it is also one of the largest food distributors in the world. Nestlé’s extensive brand portfolio includes everything from baby food and water bottles to coffee, cereal, and pet care products. The company even dabbles in health care, nutrition, and food service. For the purpose of this article, though, we are obviously most interested in Nestlé’s chocolate products.

The variety of different chocolates and candies from Nestlé is quite large. You can pick a Kit Kat, Smarties, an Aero bar, or a Milky chocolate bar. 

The Nestlé Crunch chocolate bars are also a popular choice. You will love the sweet taste and crunchy texture of these chocolate bars.

Hershey’s

If you know anything about chocolate, you know the name Hershey. ​​Hershey’s has been around for 125 years, crafting your favorite chocolates like Hershey’s chocolate bars and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Today, Hershey is the umbrella for more than 90 brands and products, including sweets, mints, and snacks, but we will stick with discussing the company’s best chocolate offerings for this article.

A few of the candies that the brand represents include:

• Kisses
• Reese’s
• Twizzlers
• Hershey’s
• Jolly Ranchers
• Ice Breakers

The ingredients vary depending on the type of candy bar. Reese’s chocolates, for instance, combine milk chocolate and peanut butter ingredients.

The Hersey’s Nuggets Truffles contain milk chocolate, vegetable oil, sugar, skim milk, and cocoa.

If you can’t live without a Hershey’s candy bar, get to your favorite candy store and buy some for a tasty treat right now.

Milka

Next on our chocolate brands list is Milka, one of the most popular chocolate brands in Europe. For the last 120 years (and counting), every Milka chocolate product has been made with 100% real Alpine milk — the reason for its incredibly creamy texture.

You’ll love tasting the chocolate as it melts in your mouth. The mouthwatering treats are truly unique from other brands, as the chocolatiers use the highest quality ingredients to create a tender 100-percent alpine milk chocolate.

Recently, the company has renovated its candy and now sells a more rounded truffle and even includes an image of its Milka cow known as Lila.

You will find the flavors incredible, so make sure to get some for the holidays as a fun treat for your kids. 

Mars

Mars has been around for over 100 years, and like other brand powerhouses like Nestlé, Mars produces a large variety of products, from pet care and candy to food and nutrition. Mars makes candy brands like M&M’s, Snickers, Twix, 3 Musketeers, and MilkyWay.

Children and teenagers tend to love the treats from the Mars company, so make sure to get these chocolates for that Halloween party you’re planning for your kids.

Cadbury

The brand Cadbury immediately makes me think of Cadbury eggs and the sweet egg-shaped chocolates that children get to enjoy on Easter.

Cadbury has continued inventing and creating new chocolate candy recipes for around 200 years since the company first opened in 1824. 

The Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate bars come in a variety of flavors, with some having less sugar and others filled with caramel, fruits and nuts, an oreo variety, toffee, and chopped nuts. The main ingredients include:

• Milk
• Sugar
• Cocoa mass
• Vegetable fats
• Cocoa butter 

You can also try the Cadbury mini brownie, caramel muffin, and chocolate cookie. 

Godiva

Godiva is another treasure and is one of my favorite tasty chocolate brands.

Godiva offers premium chocolates for a fairly reasonable price, considering the quality. Although affordable, its gold-wrapped, ribbon-tied packages radiate luxury, and each box contains great quality chocolate. The Belgian brand started in 1926, and today the global team of Chefs and Chocolatiers keeps the tradition alive; Godiva is now available in over 80 countries.

Dove

Dove treats have chocolatey goodness and caramel in the center. You will absolutely love the silky smooth taste with its sweet caramel flavors.

The Dove brand itself is also supportive of the community, as the company provides female entrepreneurs around the nation to have a chance to win three $10,000 grants.

Deeper dark chocolate candies from Dove include ingredients like:

• Cocoa butter
• Sugar
• Chocolate
• Milkfat
• Natural flavors

You can also enjoy the crunchy texture of Dove Promises Dark Chocolate & Almond candy, or the flavorful and delicious Dove Promises Dark Chocolate & Sea Salt Caramel options.
