Tony's Chocolonely

Tony’s Chocolonely earns strong reviews for rich, creamy chocolate and inventive flavors like Milk Caramel Sea Salt, Pretzel Toffee, and White Raspberry Popping Candy, while its fair-trade, anti-slavery mission resonates. Reviews also flag drawbacks: bars are very thick with irregular break lines that are hard to portion, some dark varieties run too sweet or chalky, and concerns appear about heavy metals in certain dark bars.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I used to love this brand. Their chocolate was among the best I’ve ever eaten. But since the news about concerning and dangerous lead levels in chocolate with this brand being named in specific, I can’t support and in good conscience eat these chocolates anymore.

The milk chocolate toffee flavor is supreme. Such a delicious chocolate that melts in your mouth. Def my go to chocolate bar. Also an awesome mission!
I enjoy this brand and their ethics. However, if you are a chocolate snob, it may not be for you. I will 100% buy them for s’mores or stocking stuffers, but they aren’t in my secret mom stash of chocolate.
Tony’s is… superior. I do prefer to call it Tony Chaco-loney because it sounds like a Soprano-turned-chocolatier. Worth every penny.
I have a borderline problematic sweet tooth, and this chocolate HITS. Some of the best chocolate I've ever had. Tony's Chocolonely makes flavors and varieties I wouldn't normally go for from other brands, but somehow everything Tony's does is delicious. And while it seems counterintuitive, the chocolate isn't overly sweet; its the perfect combo of creamy and sweet with a wonderful depth of flavor. The packaging is also obviously very fun and bright--a seriously good chocolate that doesn't take itself too seriously! Highly recommend. Start with the variety pack pouch and thank me later.

I love this chocolate! The range of flavors and mix ins is a lot of fun. I don't love the odd shapes within the bar as they are hard to break off, but it doesn't stop me!
Got some from my local 7 and they’re phenomenal. Love the slavery-free guarantee and they have a decent number of vegan offerings. The off-kilter chonky shapes are fun as well.
I’m not a huge chocolate fiend, but when I do enjoy it, I like good quality and this fits the bill. It’s chunky, tastes great and the best part - it’s exploitation free!

The name and bright packaging is what drew me to Tony's at first and then I keyed in on their messaging of 100% slave free chocolate. It was my first time learning about the fact that there is slavery involved in the chocolate industry so kudos to Tony's. Now I sort of work in the industry and know too much about the problems with chocolate. I also know that it's likely impossible for Tony's to make 100% slave free chocolate.

I am not a fan of how difficult it is to break off pieces of the bar and I understand their marketing gimmick about it representing the "rough road" of the chocolate supply chain. Just not a fan of that aspect but their bright colors and retro font definitely grabbed me.
This chocolate is amazing! It's so much better than the regular brands I bought in the past. The quality seems so much better and healthier. I highly recommend!
Love this chocolate! The packaging is very fun and every flavour is delicious. Love that it’s a thicker bar than you typically get, and the price is very good. Four stars only because I don’t actually know anything about how the brand sources it’s ingredients, or how sustainable the company is.
Love this chocolate! The sea salt caramel one (the orange wrapper) is the best!

Sometimes its hard to break the pieces off since its in a non traditional pattern
Ridiculously good value for a ton of ridiculously good chocolate. My only complaint would be that I always eat more than I planned.
This chocolate is just OK. You can't really tell if its luxury / high-end or not, the branding is confusing whether its supposed to be artisanal or mass market. Some of the dark flavors are pretty good, but the other ones like milk chocolate and hazelnut are not for me. It also comes out of the packaging quite crumbly which is not ideal for not making a mess.

I like that it comes in multiple sizes and a variety of flavors, but some can be done better than others.

Seen this in Target for awhile and ended up buying their multi pack for my boyfriend. The chocolate is very good, not that generic chemically tasting stuff.
Tony’s is THE BEST CHOCOLATE. The bars are huge and the flavors are innovative. The sea salt caramel bar is a “do not miss”!
The collaboration flavor with Ben and Jerry's is to die for.
Delicious and high quality chocolate. Very cute and easy to unwrap packaging. I love the fair trade message.

More mini chocolate bars!!
Where do I begin. I bring this chocolate everywhere - a bar for long flights, for movies, for a hang out at a friends house. I can’t recommend a specific flavor because they’re all so good. (The mini Easter eggs are a nice gift too!)
Feedback
Adore any interaction I’ve had with the customer service and I’m happy to see this brand in a store. And of course I love what they stand for and the work they do to actively stand against slavery in the cacao industry across the world

My favorite of all the higher end specialty chocolate out there! Love their mission and the size and shape of the bars. And they obviously taste amazing.
