Product Description
Since 2002, it has been impossible to uncover the secret of ritter sport's dark chocolate with whole hazelnuts in just one bite. Each bar is filled to the brim with whole, roasted hazelnuts from turkey. A 2 step selection process, including hand selection, ensures that only nuts 11 to 13mm in diameter go into our delicious dark chocolate with 50 percent cocoa. Only hazelnuts like these possess the perfect ritter sport crunch. For best results, keep cool and dry.

Savoring the food grade shellac wax
By Joseph Haschka
Anyone who's read my review of Remembering Smell: A Memoir of Losing--and Discovering--the Primal Sense knows that I acquired a taste disorder several years ago. Briefly stated, since mid-1997 I'm unable to taste "sweet", and all foods and most drinks (with the exception of water and milk) taste over-salted, even when they contain no salt whatsoever. However, I can still enjoy flavors, and I've always loved chocolate. So, what chocolate candy comes near to be as satisfying as it used to be?The dark variety probably comes as close as any chocolate ever will. Because it's not as sweet as milk chocolate, there's less sweetness for me to miss, and the slightly bitter taste of the confection somewhat counteracts the saltiness I now endure. (I've had to learn to like things as they now are, not as they once were.)The DARK CHOCOLATE WITH WHOLE HAZELNUTS bar by Ritter Sport is a wonderful treat that I habitually wash down with non-fat milk. The bar is a manly 3.5 oz chunk chock full of whole hazelnuts. If I was the hardy sort to climb Mt. Everest's North Face, I'd take along a supply of these bars to keep up my energy and morale. However, as the 3-serving sized bar contains 210 calories and 15 grams of fat per serving, an entire bar may not be a couch potato's prudent dessert to chase down the chips with nacho-cheese dip and Meat Lover's pizza while watching the football game. And it doesn't go very well with beer.The hazelnut content is exemplary; I can count at least fifteen whole nuts in half the bar in front of me now. (OK, ok. So I already ate 1.5 servings. Just don't tell my wife, an honorary member of the Food Police.) According to the ingredients list, the nuts are coated with "food grade shellac wax." The result of an Internet search reveals:"Food grade shellac wax is made from 'lac', the red, hardened secretion of the insect by the same name ... simply scraped from the (insect's) host tree, dried to a powder, melted down and then treated with a neutralizing alkali, which is a nitrogenous vegetable substance, so it will dissolve."Hmm. Well, I don't think the source of the shellac will deter me from future consumption of the bar; it's just too good.

By KJC
This stuff is great. The quality of the chocolate is excellent. I have purchased this same chocolate from others on the net, but when you get the ones with German labels (e.g. not intended to be marketed in the US), there is no expiration date on the bars. As a result I have received very old chocolate (with white haze) from others. Not here! These ones are in English and labeled with an expiry date. When purchased directly from Amazon, I have always received chocolates in excellent condition and several months away from their expiry.

good but were better in my memory
By 1104
these are good but tasted better in my memory. If they roasted the nuts, they'd be awesome. The nuts in these don't appear to be toasted/roasted before hand. Lots of whole nuts though.
