Dark Chocolate

A little bitter, a little sweet, and with a depth of flavour that means you eat less chocolate for more of the cocoa hit—dark chocolate is the pick of chocolate sophisticates. In fact, dark chocolate is preferred by a surprising number of people, which is why we at the Chocolate Box offer a broad range of decadent chocolate treats to satisfy the dark chocolate-loving masses.

Dark Chocolate Boxes

When you know someone well, it really shows you respect them when you give them their favourite chocolate. So giving a box of dark chocolates to a coworker, friend, family member, or to your beloved is an extra special gift. But which dark chocolate box to choose?

Our signature Classic Dark Chocolate Box is a perfect choice. It includes a mouth-watering array of dark chocolates filled with praline, marzipan, creams and liqueurs. 

Another top pick is our Cherry Liqueur chocolate box. This one goes down a treat, with syrupy, cherry liqueur bursting from a firm encasing of dark chocolate. (These are available in alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions.)

Dark Chocolate Blocks

A block of dark chocolate is the perfect gift for one. Although shareable, having that block all to yourself is the ultimate experience. 

For dark chocolate fans, we have plain dark chocolate blocks, including the Dark Chocolate Block with 55% Cocoa and the Dark Chocolate Block with 80% Cocoa. These indulgences are handcrafted in Melbourne using premium cocoa, giving you an extreme chocolate hit.

For a romantic interest, or just someone you love platonically, our Heart Dark Chocolate Block is deliciously dark, and comes packaged in cute love heart wrapping.

For extra flavour with your dark chocolate, consider our Sour Cherry & Wafer Dark Chocolate, which combines juicy sour cherries with crispy wafer, and of course, dark chocolate. Handcrafted in Melbourne, the rich and tangy sour cherry flavour marries well with the mild wafer and the slightly bitter dark chocolate.

For a unique Australian flavour, give our Dark Red Gum Honeycomb Block a whirl. Handcrafted in Melbourne, this block mixes together shards of Australian Red Gum honeycomb with fine dark chocolate.

For a minty twist, our Dark Peppermint Block blends organic peppermint oil with rich dark chocolate. A great option for an after dinner palate cleanser. Handcrafted in Melbourne, this smooth blend of refreshing organic peppermint oil in rich Dark chocolate is sure to be popular in the home.

*Note, some of these blocks are made in limited batches, so get in quick if you want to try them!

Hampers for Dark Chocolate Fans

When gifting to a family, or when being very generous to just one person, a hamper is a great option. Our chocolate hampers contain a range of delicious chocolates and chocolate treats that are easily shared around, or consumed solo!

For those who hold dark chocolate dear, our Love of Dark Hamper combines a range of dark chocolates and sweets covered in dark chocolate. Included in the hamper is Dark Licorice, 

Dark Raspberries, Dark Pastilles, Dark Cranberries, Dark Frogs and a straight-out Dark Block. (Note that sometimes products may be swapped with similar items, based on availability.)

For those who love dark chocolate, but also enjoy a mix of milder chocolates, the Ultimate Party Box and the Favourites Hamper Box offer plenty of variety.

Dark Chocolate-Dipped Delights

Nuts and berries are tasty and nutritious, but they’re even better when dipped in dark chocolate! Also great smothered in dark chocolate are licorice, coffee beans, berries, syrup-soaked ginger, aniseed rings, honeycomb, and even salty pretzels! 

Dark Chocolate Nuts

Why not keep a bag of Dark Chocolate Almonds in the pantry, for when you want a somewhat healthy treat? These premium almonds are grown in Australia and are dry-roasted to enhance their flavour and provide an easy-to-crunch texture. They are then covered in smooth, melt-in-the-mouth dark chocolate. 

Add to the pantry, Dark Chocolate Macadamias, that use Australian-grown macadamia nuts, and Dark Chocolate Peanuts, with homegrown peanuts from Kingaroy, Queensland.

Dark Chocolate Berries

There’s no shortage of dark chocolate-covered berries to choose from in our collection. Consider our Dark Chocolate Inca Berries that use incaberries from Ecuador. These tangy berries are known for their antioxidant properties and nutrients including potassium, phosphorus and Vitamin C. Combined with dark chocolate (another antioxidant), you’re pretty much eating a superfood here!

If you want an even bigger boost of antioxidants, order our Berry Boost bag, packed with a mix of healthy and fibrous berries, including Cranberries, Goji Berries and Incaberries, (and of course, covered in dark chocolate).

Then there are our Freeze-dried Strawberries, that use strawberries grown in Red Hill, in the Mornington Peninsula. These strawberries, enrobed in thick dark chocolate, are soft and powdery to bite through, offering a light and delicious treat.

Also in the ‘berry’ zone are our Dark Chocolate Coffee Beans. Roasted so that they are crunchy and full of mature flavour, these dark chocolate-covered beans are certain to pack a punch and keep you alert for just a little while (if you don’t eat the whole bag at once)! 

Another delicious enrobed berry is our Dark Chocolate Sultanas! Using juicy and plump sultanas, these natural treats provide chewy goodness inside a dark chocolate casing.

Dark Chocolate Cranberries The secret to these delectable Cranberries is the fine quality fruit ingredient. The cranberries here are real dried fruit, with all their goodness, enrobed in superfine dark chocolate.

Finally, you can’t go past our Raspberry Jellies! Whilst these aren’t, strictly speaking a berry (we use raspberry jellies for these ones), you will definitely get a raspberry hit when you bite into them! And the chocolate that encases them is dark, rich and creamy!
