Chocolates are lovely, Royal Mail insistance that someone can acceot the parcel makes convenient delivery hopeless

Thanks for loving our chocolates, but sorry to hear you had problems with your delivery. We use Royal Mail tracked delivery service so they generally require a signature, but will leave parcels in a designated pre-determined safeplace or with neighbours too. We wouldn't want our lovely chocolate to just be abandoned, but know sometimes Royal Mail don't get it right, so sorry for your frustration.

I had the 16 chocolate Mother's Day box and was very disappointed at the variety. I had 3 of one flavour and 2 of all of the others bar one. I regularly buy Chococo chocolate for myself and family members and have done for several years as it is normally very good. Very disappointed with this "selection".

So sorry you were disappointed with the Mother's Day selection. The boxes of 16 were made up to a planned template which included six duplicated flavours, but if we were short of any at the time of making up the boxes, some would have been substituted for other chocolates available at the time. At busy periods like Mother's Day we do our very best to keep up with demand, but we are only able to work with the chocolates we have at the time when we receive last minute orders.

I was very disappointed as I paid extra for this to be delivered on 14th Feb as indicated on your website and it arrived on the 12th. The package was left outside in the pooring rain and the box and wrapping were all very wet.

I am sorry that your parcel arrived early and a real shame that the local post person left it outside. We sent all valentines orders out on the Friday as we cannot count a Saturday as a confirmed delivery date, but Royal Mail were able to delivery to you on the Saturday, this is why you had a early delivery, we would of excepted it to arrive on the Monday.

I ordered a chocolate lobster and chocolate heart for my Husband for Valentine's Day. Unfortunately when I opened the package the heart was broken in several places spoiling the hand written message that was on it. This is the second order I have had from Chococo that has been delivered either broken or melted and spoiled. For this reason I wouldn't order again. The items were just placed in a cardboard box and wrapped in other bits of paper wrapping. I am aware this is the environmentally friendly option but it no way protects fragile items like chocolate from being damaged in the post.

Oh no, we're really sorry that your heart arrived broken - nobody wants a broken heart, especially for Valentine's Day. If only you had let us know as soon as the item arrived, we could have replaced it in time for Valentine's Day. Whilst we take every care to pack everything so it does not damage in transit, sometimes we can't help how it is transported with Royal Mail. We care passionately about chocolate, our customers and the planet, so we will always do our best for all of them, but we can only put things right if we're told when things go wrong.

I bought these for myself as a treat (!) as I'd seen them recommended in The Times. I paid £25 for the box of 25 chocolates and my biggest issue is the price. I thought the chocolates were all nice - not delicious but nice. If I'd paid £10, I'd have felt it was about right for the quality/taste of the product. For £25 I expected something excellent and, although I wish I could say different, I was (very) underwhelmed.

Thank you for your feedback and sorry that you found our chocolates disappointing. At the end of the day, it is all down to personal taste, and even Chococo can't win everyone over.

Pleased with product which arrived in good time and of excellent quality. BUT I am very unhappy that my e-mail address has been forwarded to a review site without my consent and potentially in contravention of the gdpr.

I was so sad with the feedback regarding the box of chocolates I recently purchased for a friend of mines birthday. I asked what they thought of them and they said the dark chocolate was so strong it wiped out almost all of the flavours in the box. They cost me a lot of money with postage and I dare say I wont be purchasing from you again. Such a let down, yet they looked very nice. I cant afford to make that mistake again...sorry!!

Sorry to read this review and of course, we are happy to take on any feedback good or not so good. We have already sent your comments to the making team.

Fairly disappointing to be sent a booklet showing what you could have received in your selection but didn’t. The packaging is rubbish. It’s near on impossible to navigate dislodging a chocolate from its deep enclosure without the assistance of a toothpick or knife or brute force. Once retrieved the chocolates are of another level. I’m not sure if that’s in a good way though. Mostly dark and bitter. These are serious chocolates. They mean business. Not the kind you’d want more than two of too quickly and that’s the so close but no cigar bit.

Oh dear! We do explain on our menus that it lists all our current flavours, so shows more than we can fit in your box. Winter 2021 had 44 different chocolates - hard to fit into a box of 24! Flavours are rotated regularly so chocolates are always fresh and so boxes can continually be exciting and different, even if you have them regularly. We also suggest on our menu that if you have any difficulty extracting our chocolates, you can lift out the cardboard grid dividers. Our packaging is plastic-free, planet-friendly and recyclable; we'd rather it wasn't rubbish. And we don't mind our chocolates being called serious, although our many Chococo fans might consider them more fun, creative and adventurous. But it is all a matter of taste at the end of the day.

The chocolate covered Turkish delight was lovely, and a great size but only 6 pieces? The box of chocolates was truly revolting (sorry), three different people tried them and after the third choc each was as bad as the first, they were thrown away. The flavours were unfortunately awful.

We're really pleased you enjoyed our chocolate covered Turkish delight, but it's a shame that the non-alcoholic festive chocolates didn't go down so well. We guess it's all a matter of taste and you can't win them all.

I ordered a chocolate orangutan for my brother for Christmas, but he opened it to find a chocolate duck!

Oh no! We're so sorry to hear about the mix-up. It's such a shame you didn't contact us to let us know and we could have rectified it. We're sorry for any disappointment, but we can only correct mistakes if you let us know about them.

It did not state the use by date at the time of ordering. I had no idea they needed to be used so quickly by which time the birthday present had time passed. Very disappointing

Sorry that this was not clear to you when ordering, we always have a use-by date on an image of the picture, with the date that current chocolates will have to be had by. Apologies if this was missed.

Oh no, you posted your review too soon! We're sorry that Royal Mail held your Biscuit Log Cake hostage and missed the planned delivery date, but thankfully it arrived eventually, so you got to have your cake and eat it too!

Very sorry to hear you were disappointed with your fresh selection box, but as Katharine explained when you emailed, we do offer a Fresh No Nuts Selection Box, so it's a shame you didn't spot it when you placed your order.

The chocolate was lovely but the flavour combinations of the summer collection weren't appetising. The lemon was lovely but the others weren't pleasant I'm afraid

I order three easter eggs for delivery with personalised notes. I was very pleased with the chocolate and quality. However, I was disappointed that two out of three gifts were posted without gift notes. This was very disspointing as my gifts turned up for my nephews and future in laws without them knowing it was from me! I was a loyal Hotel Chocolate customer and the lack of notes makes me consider going back to them over this independent business. Hopefully the custmer service gesture to makeup for the lack of gift notes will stop any contemplation I feel about my future orders.

Unfortunately my order was incomplete and I only received one egg (which is, as yet, untried). On a positive note, the company readily acknowledged their error when I raised the matter and as they were, by this time, out of stock of Easter eggs promptly refunded the total payment. I would like to try to use this company again in the future.

Chocolate tastes amazing, but egg was completely destroyed in shipping. Packaging completely inappropriate, just some scrunched paper.
