Reviews mention

  • Creamy, luxurious mouthfeel chocolate
  • Inventive, memorable flavor lineup
  • Chunky, satisfying bar format
  • Ethical, mission-driven sourcing
  • Overly sweet chocolate profiles
  • Thick, hard-to-break pieces
  • Inconsistent caramel texture hardness
  • Limited higher-cacao dark options

Tony’s Chocolonely earns strong reviews for rich, creamy chocolate, inventive flavors like Milk Caramel Sea Salt, Dark Almond Sea Salt, and Dark Milk Pretzel Toffee, plus mission-driven, fair-trade sourcing. Reviews also flag drawbacks: some bars taste overly sweet or bland to dark‑chocolate loyalists, the thick, uneven pieces are hard to break and share, and concerns appear about heavy metals in certain dark varieties and salt intensity in caramel bars.

  • The chocolate is great, and I love their mission. I bought a sample pack to give bars as gifts for christams, and they were a huge hit!

  • I loved this chocolate, and then I learned the story behind it and loved it even more. I was gifted a box of sample chocolates and was able to find too many favorites. It's so tasty!

  • I would highly recommend Tony's Chocolonely to anyone who is looking for a delicious and ethical chocolate. They are a great company that is making a positive impact on the world.

  • Delish chocolate! Especially the toffee/caramel flavors. I love everything about this brand, from the packaging to the variety to the quality!

  • I love the taste of Tony’s. Tastes like how chocolate should taste - not processed with real ingredients. I also appreciate their sustainable approach. I particularly love their dark chocolate almond bar.

  • If you enjoy a chocolate bar that is more on the sugary sweet side, this is for you. I personally enjoy hard bitter chocolate, so I will not be having it again. However, it is still fun if sweet is your inclination But for me to keep shopping with them, I would want an ethically sourced and sugar free bar.

  • I am French, and the only fine and decent American chocolate brand that I can bring over and offer to my picky family is this one. The packaging is very fun, making it a great gift, and the chocolate tastes great. However, I wish it were easier to break and break into smaller pieces. I have small children who love chocolate, and it is just hard to give them small bits. But, overall, it is a great, fun, and good chocolate bar.

  • I bought it at a coffee shop and it was a very large bar of chocolate and tasted splendid and lasted for some time in my pantry

  • This chocolate is good and I really appreciate the mission but from a taste-based metric, you can definitely get better prices (even from fair trade brands). My actual score wuld probably be a 7/10

  • Tony's Chocolonely is more than just delicious chocolate; it's a brand with a mission. The unique flavors are a treat for the taste buds, and what sets them apart is their commitment to fair trade and ending child labor in the cocoa industry. With vibrant packaging and a strong ethical stance, Tony's Chocolonely is a must-try for those who crave great taste and want to support positive change. Highly recommended!

  • I always see these around and I finally tried the variety pack. I thought the flavors were great (love the pretzel toffee and caramel sea salt). I personally like chocolate that’s a little less sweet, but in general it hits the spot!

  • I love how big these chocolate bars are. I also love the Willy Wonka vibes the wrapper gives me. The chocolate is great too.

  • SO TASTY. Love the mission. Creamy chocolate on par with any of the best UK/European chocolates. My only complaint is the way the bar splits up as I inevitably get tiny crumbs/shavings on myself or furniture. And call me traditional but I think squares of chocolate are just fine :)

  • Love the ethics and taste of this gorgeous chocolate. It is now my go to chocolate. Love all the types in the range. I buy a few bars to share with my friends / family and the majority are all converts too. My only ask is that there is an organic option added to the range.
