About: I've not found Godiva chocolates - especially their filled chocolate truffles - to be ... well.. good. They are normally a combination of overly sweet and overly processed. But, this one is really okay.
Flavor: The ginger is strong in this one. The orange is completely dominated - it's sort of a waste. The chocolate is good, but not particularly flavorful, and while it's fruity it has a slightly bitter after taste. Texture: Incredibly smooth, though the ginger is chewy. Starts a little crunchy. The middle bit is OMG smooth, then you're left with the ginger bits. It's okay, I guess.
My rating: A 6 for great texture, but demerits for trying too hard on the marketing to make it look chock full of Orange and chock full of Ginger and chock full of chocolate.
| Rating Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1 | Really bad chocolate. There's something just really really wrong here in almost every imaginable respect. |
| 2 | A bar with this rating has at least two drawbacks. |
| 3 | A bar where something is starting to get seriously wrong.... for example, really weak flavor with an otherwise acceptable texture. |
| 4 | This bar is below average, but just slightly. Mostly it's not worth eating again. Something isn't quite up to par, for example a poor texture but fine flavor. |
| 5 | This is an average good bar that's worth eating. There's nothing really wrong with it, but also nothing particularly spectacular. Or, perhaps it has a good characteristic that's evenly counter-weighted by something weak. |
| 6 | A solidly good bar with one characteristic that's above par, for example a great texture. |
| 7 | An solidly good chocolate that has two above par characteristics, but nothing mind-blowing. Good, above average flavor, but nothing to die for. |
| 8 | An excellent bar with no weaknesses and at least one characteristic that's super. |
| 9 | An awesome bar to die for with amazing texture and flavor. |
| 10 | You have been touched by God. |
