Ok, I’m Curious… Intrigue by Quality Street (Ocado) By @Cinabar
I think what I’m most curious about when it comes to these chocolates is the reference to Quality Street on the label. Apart from the familiar looking box, I can’t see how these fit into the Quality Street branding. Is Quality Street becoming a brand with more products than the famous box (or tin) of chocolates you get at Christmas for sharing? Apparently so, anything that mentions praline though is a win for me, so yes I’m curious about Intrigue.
These Intrigue chocolates are all the same in the box, and they are individually wrapped smartly in purple and green. The chocolates inside were a little smaller than I’d expected, and once opened the nut sprinkles were going everywhere. These chocolates are covered in hazelnuts. The praline truffles are quite soft and they have quite a grown up flavour, ie not too sweet. The filling is dark and the nut is quite strong which means they are a little bitter. I liked this flavour but I do love the mix of chocolate and nut. The texture was good too, soft but with a crunch from the nuts.
These might be a step away from the usual sweet treats from Quality Street but I’d be rather happy to get a box of these Intrigue chocolates as a gift, they really are rather nice.
