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.

    It would be great if was allergy-free

  • I am somewhat of a chocoholic and these are great but not my favorite. I notice when I keep one of these in my cupboard, I keep wanting to sneak back to it. My favorite thing about these chocolate bars is their size. They are thick and large. When I buy one I feel like I am buying a Wonka Bar and I wonder if there is a golden ticket inside. Also the seasonal flavors and special releases are so fun and delicious.

    It may just be me but these chocolates sit heavier on my stomach than other chocolates. This is what keeps me from buying more often.

  • I am in love with their milk chocolate 32% as well as the milk caramel sea salt one. I love how it comes in such colorful packaging that you just cannot bring in the guilt while gobbling this one up. The brand obviously does great work for the people who work hard to make these chocolate bars- read about it once you take the wrapper off, but the chocolate in itself is so heavenly that you cannot let go of it. One of the best in the fair trade chocolate category!

  • Individually wrapped chocolates with caramels are especially good

  • I’d never tried this before and purchased plain milk block while visiting in the UK. I’m a bit chocolate eater and have tried many different brands. In fact, I just spent a month traveling Europe where I enjoy visiting supermarkets and trying different brands. Tony’s Milk block was awful. It reminded me of cheap cooking chocolate and had a very hard waxy feel to it. Easily one of the worst chocolate I’ve ever tried.

    Feedback

    This recipe for Tony’s milk chocolate in the UK should be reviewed. It’s awful and tastes very cheap and nasty. I would not try it again unless there has been a change in the recipe.

  • Especially the orange one. Seasalt caramel... So much yum.

    Feedback

    Its so good. Very sweet. Gotta love sweet.

  • WE LOVE TONY'S! I love the bars as is, love chopping up the large bars and using them in cookies, and love gifting them. I buy them every time they are on sale at Whole Foods!

  • This is my go-to chocolate for personal consumption and gifting. LOVE the packaging. Flavors are delicious and indulgent.

  • Delicious & the best branding.

  • Love this brand. All the bars are amazing and it’s easy to find at my favorite stores.

    Feedback

    Wider availability of the snack sizes

  • Saw person in the store buying several bars. I asked if this chocolate is good and the guy was: "it's the best, especially the one with the purple cover" My whole family loves it and I love the mission.

  • Tony's is my preferred chocolate brand with its light and delicious chocolates that do not cause gastritis problems in large and colorful packages.

  • My local Whole Foods, Deluxe and New Leaf carry these chocolate bars. I’ve tried 3 flavors so far as well as purchase them for my small business.

    Feedback

    Dark almond sea salt is a 10/10. I love putting these chocolate bars on my charcuterie boards. This flavor goes amazingly well with Humbolt Fog or a nice creamy gouda.

  • Delicious. Great packaging. Everyone I’ve bought it for loves.

  • Amazing packaging to start, paired with a very good chocolate it cannot get more perfect! Love the branding!
