Chocolate Delight
The best chocolates my wife and I have ever had. We thought we knew good chacolates having purchased and consumed more well know upper shelf chocolates before, but these blow all of them away. Do yourself a big favor and buy a box of these for yourself!!!! You may find yourself eating them all and not sharing one of them!!!1
Although, the chocolate was good, and the inside was very creamy; it seemed that every chocolate was Hazelnut-flavored. I was very disapointed in the flavors of this chocolate. Especially after reading such glowing reviews, I was upset recieving something that was decent, but just buying a cheap box of chocolates at the store is just as good. You want delicious chocolates, go for Godiva.

Sinfully Satisfying
Simply delectable assortment. The only negative I can think of is the lack of an assortment guide. But, I guess that adds to the surprise. The package is beautifully and lovingly packaged, and my chocolates arrived without melting! Great service! The chocolates themselves melt in your mouth and their coffee-hazlenut pralines are to die for! The hazlenut is just that-pure, unadulterated nuts-that said, some people might expect ferrero rocher like taste-its very different, and for some people, even distasteful. But I love it! There are around three layers in the box, and each layer has around seven pieces. Pretty good value actually, and makes an excellent gift!
We sent these to my mother in law who is in a retirement community. She loves the chocolates and likes to share with the nursing staff and her friends.

remembering Belgium
We lived in Belgium for a number of years. Tasting these wonderful chocolates took me back..... The chocs. themselves were delicious with all the sorts of fillings I enjoy. I also enjoyed the different chocolate surrounding the centres. Leonidas was a regular part of our lives and hope that I can enjoy these little luxuries again, more regularly. The delivery was extremely speedy too.

"Awesome!!!! " said my daughter-in-law
I got these chocolates for my son and my daughter-in-law for their 10th wedding anniversary. My son said the chocolates were fantastic, and my daughter-in-law -- a gourmet in many categories including chocolates -- said they were awesome!!! And I give the company 6 stars for customer service.

poor shipping & handling
Shipping was horrible. They claimed they couldn't keep it cool for delivery to NY in the summer (How come Godiva can?)
Chocolates good, but........ (others can be better-maybe these were just handled & shipped so poorly that they were no longer good).
Gave as gift, I think I can probably do better.

totally overrated
The Leonidas chocolates being peddled in the USA bear little/no resemblance to those available in Europe. After enjoying Leonidas in Germany (Aachen and Munich) for many years I placed an order here in New York State. What I received was (a) crudely presented boxes of (b) thick, hard-shelled (c) anonymous flavoured cream centres. With the exception of the coffee creams (which were more or less as I remember them from Europe) the rest of the box seemed to consist of two undefinable centres. Extremely disappointed with this order. The Godiva selection my mother received for Christmas was FAR superior in every respect -- packaging, presentation, appearance, texture, taste. I won't buy Leonidas in the USA again.

Great Belgian Chocolates
Though I live in Miami, which is quite hot and humid, the chocolates arrived well packed, and did not melt at all.
Without comparing them to Godiva, these are simply some of the best chocolates on the market. You won't be disappointed.
I've read reviews of different chocolates on Consumer Reports awhile ago and Leonidas was given a good rating; I was curious as to how this would taste. So, I ordered it for the family (I just sampled..). The packaging is really nice.. it would make a great gift. As for the chocolate itself, well... it is better than most store brands, but not as good as Godiva. I would rather pay a little more for better quality, or pay a lot less for a bar of Cadbury.
