And finally I got my chocolates and here is a review-

I ordered like 9 chocolates and got 1 extra from gourmetgr(thanks for that).
All the chocolates were literally delicious. Out of all the chocolates I got, White milk chocolate with raisins, almonds & hazelnuts was the most amazing one, I was never able to find white chocolate with nuts in it in my country.
I shared the chocolates with my friends too and all of my friends liked them. One of My friend's favourite was the one with whole almonds, he found its texture to be smooth, there were a lot of almonds in it, all the almonds were of like great quality.
If you eat the chocolates which were kept at the room temperature then they melted quickly in your mouth(and give really a good taste) and if you refrigerate the chocolates then they become super hard(harder than the chocolates I get here), I personally like the chocolates which were soft I.e weren't refrigerated.
Also not to forget the hazelnut chocolate, this was the one preferred by my brother. It was actually good, and hazelnuts provided an awesome experience and they brought a twist to the normal taste of chocolate.

So now within 5hrs, I have finished all the chocolates, my parents , brother and a couple of friends shared these chocolates and all of them were satisfied with the quality of the product , indeed not only satisfied, they were impressed.
Also the chocolates were sent out in a cardboard box, and I was surprised to see that all the chocolates were in their perfect form and none of them were broken(as I expected them to be) so A++ rating to the packing of the chocolates and also A+++++ for the taste of the chocolates.

Thanks

Ok there is one thing i would like to clear, regarding the free addons you might find in your order.

If you don't find any free extraa, please don't get mad, since i am not making any discriminations.

I always try to save you from extra shipping costs (really stupid expensive costs we got here) so i might ask you to remove a chocolate or two from your order in order to not exceed the weight and charged more.

On the other hand, if i see that your order weights less enough than the next shipping charge level, then i'll try to add some free stuff to make it even without being charged more.

For example if your order is 300g and the next level is 501g, then i'll try to add some free chocolates to cover the rest 199g available.

I hope you understand what i am trying to say  Tongue

Thanks again!

Nice to see a review. Now I am even more excited for my chocolates 🍫 . They have already been shipped to my country and now they are with the customs! Hope they send it to me soon.
Ill also leave a review as soon as I get my chocolates Cheesy

Edit: The chocolates have been released by the customs, and they must be in the post office now! I just hope that the post office guy don't mess with the chocolates and ship it ASAP Cheesy

Good to hear that!

It was fast delivery, too! Hope the post office won't mess with your chocolates (just kidding, don't think so  Cheesy) and you get them as soon as possible.

Looking forward for your review, too!

Alright its review time guys  Grin

I received my order today via express shipping: took around 5 days to arrive from Greece to Canada (Toronto, ON). Yes, I chose express shipping because I couldn't wait to get my chocolates  Cool
I ordered "ION - Milk chocolate with whole almonds" and  "ION - Milk chocolate with whole hazelnuts", and I also received free additional "CHOCOFRETA - Chocolate milk wafer" and "ION - Milk chocolate with almonds". Thanks very much for the free chocolate!

Very, very surprisingly, none of the chocolates arrived broken in pieces. I don't know if it was the thick bubble mailer packaging or made-in-Greece-quality-chocolate that made these unbreakable in transit  Wink

Now down to the part where everyone is waiting for: how the chocolate tastes.
I must say... there is something different about Greek chocolate and the chocolate you buy in your neighbourhood convenience store. One of the most notable things I found about these chocolates is that the almonds and hazelnuts are whole pieces. Unless you buy Lindt or Purdy's- which are both quite expensive chocolate brands- you won't find whole-nuts in your chocolate  Tongue I live in Toronto, so I can't speak for the most of you though, regarding this matter.

Overall, I found the chocolate quite delicious, and I finished around 2 bars within 15 minutes of receiving the mail ( Grin ) and I'm trying to save the last 2 bars for tomorrow.

All in all, GourmetGR is one of the greatest purveyors of fine chocolate  Grin

That was really cool!

Thanks a lot for the review! Glad you liked the chocolates  Smiley

I believe a order weighing 2000 grams will be a Large package ?
I Posted in previous posts about my order and it will be below 2000 but around 1900 grams

Unfortunately no, everything more than 1000g goes to "large". But I'll check again with the post office. Can you tell me which chocolates do you want? I'll send you a final price with a discount  Wink

I have never tasted any one of that and they all look so delicious to me .
For starters , i want all in smallest packages just to taste and then i can decide which one's will i prefer.
I added all which adds up to 1208 grams priced 29.3$ + shipping.

Hey Sky

Can you ship the Chocolatetes and wafers internationally too?
Please LMK

thank you

Hey Ashan!

Of course, i can ship worldwide. Please feel free to place your order whenever you are ready.



Man! this seems delicious! I would love some.
But shipping is quite high seeing i was thinking to get one of each to try as sample and than i can bulk order the one's i like.
How they cost in the range of 1000-2000 gms , Shipping to India 30$
Total cost for all samples ~29$ , Shipping 30$
That's like twice the rate this way Undecided
Any suggestions? PM me
~Regards Sky

Hey Sky!

I know , that's the biggest problem. I suggest you break your order in 2 or 3 parts, since i cannot send a lot of items at once.
I am sure that we could work something out  Wink



I'm craving for that ! I want to order 1 pc every chocolates you have. How much is that? and shipping here in the Philippines. Pm for the price thanks

Hi Phbaby

I am glad you like my chocolates. Please consider that i cannot send a lot of pieces at once. So i can send you 1 piece of everything in let's say 3 different orders. This will save you a lot from shipping costs.



Can you please quote the shipping charge for buying more than 2000grams of chocolate? I might be interested if its the same as 1000-2000grams

I would like to know that too!
WOuld be great if it's same for 2000+

Sory guys, i cannot send that kind of weight. The cost is too high. If you need large quantities, i can split orders (multiple orders per week).

Thanks

Hey guys! What's up!

Wow, i see a lot of new posts here  Grin

so i'll try to answer all of your questions.

First of all regarding shipping costs, i would like to say that the biggest problem is the weight! If the package exceeds 1000g (1kg) then it is considered as "large package" and the rates go to the moon!

So i am trying to keep the weight low, less than 1000g. That's why i prefer not to send a lot of pieces in a single order.

Second problem i have is that i don't have a wholeseller licence (we are just a small retailer family business), so if by chance any of big packages get caught, i'll have a major problem. This is something i don't want  Wink I am just trying to get some bitcoins by selling some products from my store, not to make some big business here.

Other than that, you are more than welcome to order anything from the op list and i'll be more than happy to deliver  Smiley

ok so let's go with the answers...
